Tax scapegoats
I refer to the letter 'A huge tax bill' (August 26).
The correspondent finds many groups to blame for his high taxes. His, or her, ranting is reminiscent of Pauline Hanson at the height of her infamy. In fact, the complaints against this person's fellow workers are worthy of even less credit than the vitriol spewed by the newly incarcerated Australian hate-monger, in that they are anonymous.
Perhaps this ambitious person should consider the benefits of living in a society before complaining about making contributions towards its upkeep. This fascist, and that is what it is, hatred for both the underprivileged and foreigners is reminiscent of 1930s Europe.
It is appropriate that the correspondent's spleen was vented so soon after the 'Nazi' fashion and bar incidents that received so much attention. One only hopes that this person does not have substantial debts to 'foreigners' to blame on any easy-to-target minority.
