AUS: Wine tax wowsers ruin life's pleasures for us all
Oct 15, 2012
(TheAustralian) - A government report says Australians drink too much and the solution is higher taxes on wine - in effect, prohibition by stealth.
WHEN there is no more room in hell, wowsers will walk the earth.
You see, I doubt that hell is the fabled stygian abyss with lakes of fire and endless wailing and gnashing of teeth.
More likely it is a cold and lonely joint, populated not by philanderers, sybarites and carousers of all kinds but rather by the world's do-gooders and moral and health crusaders.
Rather than a pit of iniquity, I suspect hell is a nightmare of eternal abstinence, temperance, and veganism, with 24/7 easy-listening music in the background.
