    Those who "examine" capital gains as a means of taxation come up against two factors that we the critical public of both persuasion tend to ignore. The first is cost - a building or two full of assessors or inspectors and the second is capital "loss" Suddenly the golden goose becomes a rather skinny duck with hardly any quack.

    Piece about this Progressive Conservative guy in Canada

    Love this bit because it seems to echo the thinking of some posters here -

    Conservatism is no longer a political ideology in the recognized sense, but a repository of loathing and despair. It’s where people thrust their hatred of modernity — of globalism and multiculturalism and technocratic expertise, but also of the democracy that fostered those systems in the first place. By giving high office to buffoons, by choosing thugs as their representatives and by reveling in nastiness for its own sake, the Conservative brand now is principally a marker of contempt for political order itself.
