A group of Finns have founded the Happy Taxpayers Association and the French have banned vending machines in shools (the French vice-President was in NZ today recommending we do the same.)
Go away!

This blog intends to debunk the myths surrounding the welfare state. The government is not caring and compassionate. It cannot replace families and community. The welfare state is unsustainable economically, socially and morally.

Huh?
Surely as a lover of liberty you should accept the fact some people are happy to pay taxes and form a club to support the idea?
And what's so upsetting about removing vending machines from schools? Packed too many lunches have you? :) I support the idea that empty calories shouldn't be overly accessible in a school. You are what you eat - no matter what school you go to, what teachers you have, how well resourced and how rich the parents, if the kid eats refined sugar as a main diet s/he's going to be begind the eight ball right from the beginning.
Or maybe you're talking about those fruit and fresh salad vending machines ;)
There are plenty of opportunities for our children to exercise their spending power outside of the school, so let the school be a place geared for learning - including the promotion of foods that support concentration and sustained blood sugar levels.
Well, that's my idea about it, anyway.
As for the French - sure, go away! ;) No reason needed!!! ;) ;) ;)
