I'm aware of that - but a GST is a goods AND services tax (because we
live in service based economies these days). So the guy who cuts your
lawn, cuts your hair or runs your favorite restaurant charges tax -
10% here, much more in Europe. Prices in the US are laughably low
compared to those for most of us out here, which is why I have a B&W
account.
