Resten av verden må ikke tro at vi ikke ble sinte, skuffet og ekstremt lei oss. For det ble vi. Vi har minst like mye følelser og konkurranseinstinkt.

People need to understand that any tax you raise says “I want less of this thing”.
Income taxes: “I want less working”.
Business taxes: “I want less business”.
VAT: “I want fewer purchases of goods and services”.
