"Good taxation has to attack this growing inequality. [...] it's about fairness, it's about democracy, but its also about economic growth." Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz makes the case for #WealthTaxes at the recent EU Tax Symposium in Brussels.

#Habs MSL on Kirby Dach "His competitiveness, his commitment… he has come up with important goals for us. Even though we weren't able to score a third or fourth one (in game 1), his second goal helped us get going again and gain some momentum. I find that Kirby helps us with momentum." #GoHabsGo

The French Revolution began in 1789, sparked by massive national debt, crippling food shortages, and an unfair tax system that burdened the poor while the monarchy and nobility lived in luxury. When King Louis XVI's attempts to raise taxes failed, he was forced to call the Estates-General.

I tend to personify my anger as a nameless bird and GOD I am glad that thing's quiet enough now. Metaphorically, it has been chirping in my ear with the volume of a gunshot for 30+ days. My head has been so full of feathers it was hard to think. GODS above I'm glad I can rest and quiet that thing
