Harnessing the power of tax evasion to address climate change
From the comment section for a recent post on the crisis in Greece:
The thing I know about Greek tax-evasion is that they know where you live when you hook into the electric grid. So a family I know, owning a small island, avoids paying any taxes by running everything on wind and solar power.
:D
ReplyDeleteThe husband is a civic engineer, and there's lots of wind and sun in Greece. So it's a pretty localized case.
