Owen I am disappointed that every day someone has their hand out. As someone who has worked all their life to pay their own way and seeing how hard it's been I resent this bs the more I see it. It's less food on my kids table and older clothes on their back. It all adds up. If this is happening for all the other stuff too which I didn't know then this needs to be changed. It's wrong. One of the reasons Govt is the way it is now.
Taxing friggin Christmas trees isn't the answer. You got the reason they lobbied for it right there. They want to compete against artificial trees because it hurts their bottom line.

Nevermind, it won't cost you anything since you have a toilet brush on a stand  Wouldn't you be better served to complain about those? |
