Stewie and Brian debate a flat tax

August 17th, 2007 · 4 Comments

I wonder whether some people watching the following Family Guy clip were intrigued by the punchy argument and sought out more infor­mation about it.

Have a great weekend!

    Oh, that’s just awesome. I’m sifting that now.

    I guess it’s an old joke, but compli­cated tax laws mean that accoun­tants can afford many of the finer things in life. It sure would tick me off to have sweated over learning tax for school and the CKE/SOA/UFE, only to have Parliment pass a flat tax law.

    But then again, in 5 years, a lot of the Canadian GAAP I learned will be tossed out the window.

    The Taxre­search blog will of course mock the flat taxers to death — check that place out for a reason to not expect it anytime soon around here, so it’s not really a serious concern given Canadians’ general social conscience.

    As for the constant changes to GAAP, don’t worry, the core principles are really the same, and your profes­sional judgement will prove way more valuable in 5 years than whatever’s written in a book that you can easily look up electronically.
