Every cotton-picking, weighted word was true. Witten in good English-par-, donez rnois-"Canadian" and not in swinging nuclear dial- ect. He wondered what he got fnom Ottawa afterthe allot- trnent from hard eanned wages had been trimmed? His caption "Who Needs Taxes?" He wonders. Everyone won- dens. Wortders about the many unnecessary things, decided by govt. Bureaucrats, whose wages we pay, where THEY feel our sliced dollars should be shovelled. This witer is "one of the lucky people," mentioned by Mn. Smiley, having won thnough to a disability pen- sion. "Won through" by losing everything owned, in an effort to be honest, after years and years of honorable living and work, neyer drawing unem- ployment insurance, though Editor paying whopping unemploy- ment insurance for a life-time" Neyer any illness* then, (thank God, OHIP was flot function- ing then as now). "Neverthe- less", where in the world is there a better place to live, to work, to play, or die? Canada has everything-even Freedom to criticize the manner of government. Admitting the truths of Bill S's beefs, the answer'to his caption is: The Government needs our taxes (maybe flot quite so much or many) to run the country, and keep it as fine a country as it remnains.
