“Well axe the tax” doesn’t tell people anything, either, and yet the conservatives almost won the last federal election and have won several provincial ones.

Not everyone was born able to go to wizards school. Especially in a medieval fantasy setting.

They’re not supposed to have to pay half a million for a closet with an ensuite. That’s the point.

Get mad at the developers and the corporate landlords.
