Season 6, Episode 18 – Where is all your tax dollars going?

Published on: 11th February, 2019
To quote the brothers of the D, the _government totally sucks._ Seanorama and FastFretFingers discuss your tax dollars and all of the various ways the government collects it, coffers it and mismanages it. Why is there never any money left and why do they keep creating new revenue streams to drain your wallet? Alcohol, fuel, income tax, GST, PST, RST (the woman tax), photo radar, casinos, marijuana… the list goes on and they keep sucking us dry while they somehow run out of money. On the other side of the coin the brothers discuss tax rates and the level of happiness of other countries. What are the top 11 countries (why 11, because top 10 lists are passé) in terms of happiness and how do _their_ tax levels determine _their_ happiness? A hint of what is coming next, keep your ears peeled for the next episode where we have a very special guest, someone I have wanted to have on the Podcast for some time. Who will it be? PS _Wunderlist_ is in fact great and no they are NOT paying to say it. But maybe they should.

Hi, I am Sean "SeanGeek" McGinity. And I am a geek. For me, the definition of the word geek comes from liking something so much, that I deep dive into it. Not just consuming it... but becoming it. I "geek out". Everything started with comics. I read them and studied them with a fine eye, and then started making my own. Since then, I have "geeked out" on movies (Star Wars The Evil WIthin, Hurt), music writing, recording, and performing (The Classic Embers and Dome), writing (the Symka comic and the upcoming Intuitives novel), and now... this Podcast.

Hey guys, SeanGeek here. Just to be clear, this is me geeking out on Todd "FastFretFingers" McGinity here. Todd is the GOAT. My brother is an established musician, mastering the Fretboard with a blistering discipline. If there was a guitar style, tone, pitch... Todd would find a way to replicate it. From his early days mastering Van Halen and Rush, his musical palate has expanded with forays into classical and flamenco, hard rock, blues and pop. From live performances to learning the recording process, when it comes to music, he has done it all.

A lover of stories, beer, and cats, and a master of none. Catch me talking to Geek Boy every so often for the latest comic book TV show or movie, Star Wars, board games and other things cool. Hear me give my two cents, relate them to other things I know, and make other recommendations!
