So my eldest daughter has just left school and she’s gotten herself a job whilst waiting to go to University. She got her first pay packet and paid her first tax; welcome to the adult world! Only, she’s not an adult, in fact she’s only recently turned 17 which means she’s too young to vote. So a government that she didn’t vote for, nor can she vote to remove, still feels it has the right to tax her. Hmm, that just doesn’t feel right to me. In fact I seem to remember a certain Reverend saying the same thing in Boston a while back and that didn’t end well for the government of the day. If you are too young to vote, you are too young to pay tax I say!

Dustin faces up the "The Steak" at a Developer Express dinner. My money's on "The Steak" LOL
Check out this video showing what happened when Scott Hanselman stopped by the DevEx booth whilst Mark Miller was demonstrating Coderush. Watch it all the way the end and you'll find out Scott's grandparents came from the same small town in Scotland where I was brought up. Small world eh?
Well that's not true, but I'm not around at the moment, I'm currently hanging out at TechEd 2008 in Orlando - if you happen to be there, stop by the Developer Express booth and say hi. The usual drivel will be resumed on my return :-)
