What kind of mad world is it where the tax is less than the clearance fee is most of the time.
Blame it on the money hungry socialist programs in the UK.
Hi. Enough. Thank you.
I know I'm nitpicking here! but you have to wonder why Va'al's defending the money hungry socialist programmes? since he's brought your conversation to a halt
I'm just tired of people derailing conversations by throwing in comments that have nothing to do with what was being talked about.
EDIT: Plus what JelZe says below.
Like I'm the first one to derail a subject.
Mods are people too. Some Mods also post off slighlty meandering responses to a subject but later edit it out when called out.
Some posters keep manufacturing "Elmers Glue" when it comes to why is the price level different in Asia and the USA or why no Groove for domestic release.
Let me repeat, I did not raise the issue of taxes. I just responded matter of factly. In UK, you recently have a more conservative leaning government but your programs are still in place, just with a lot of cutbacks in services and higher taxes.
Taxes too affect the release of certain products in a particular region. Ever consider that? Why no particular subline of TF is released?
