Ever Get The Feeling You’ve Been Cheated?

Maurice posted yesterday on this infuriating story from the AP about the decision by state government five years ago to stop notifying businesses when they overpaid sales taxes. Befitting the fact that Maurice is a very nice young man, his post politely criticized this desision. I, on the other hand, would like someone to explain to me why this decision by the Holden administration is anything short of stealing. If somebody owes me $10, and they mistakenly give me a $20 bill, I have a moral obligation to return them the extra $10. Doesn’t the state have the same responsibility? The answer is obviously yes, and I commend the Blunt administration for changing this awful decision.

By the way, in order to get the full effect of this post’s title, you must say it with an Engllish accent and imagine looking over a crowd in San Francisco while uttering this famously appropriate summation to the end of one of the most awsome bands of all time.
