Citizens demanding higher taxes?

You are probably thinking that I am smoking some funny cigarettes or have been hitting the bottle. Taxpayers wanting to pay more taxes? Are you crazy?

But yes, a group of rich Germans have started a petition asking the government to implement a 5% wealth tax for two years. This money would be used to deal with the social and economic needs during this recovery period. Check out the full article on the BBC website.

Now do you think that the wealthy in Canada would make the same request?
