Message: Entry: Diana Deserves Better Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/diana_deserves_better#4232 Post contents: A. Capp, get back to me when someone has invaded or acquired your land, using "eminent domain" perhaps, and then starts charging you rent, and see whether you think it's "rent" or a "tax." If the British royals simply inherit wealth, that's one thing. If HRH thinks she "owns" all of England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, etc., and that the inhabitants of these lands are "renters," then she's madder than her ancestor King George III. I don't care that it isn't much in terms of real dollars. By the same argument, why shouldn't each of my fellow Americans pay one cent in tax per year to me? It isn't much, is it? Sent at: 2008 09 07
