WorldNetDaily: Global tax almost a reality

"At the spring meeting of the IMF-World Bank in Washington, D.C., it was announced that a number of countries will be used to test a $1 tax on airline tickets.

Left-wing bias is almost undetectable among European college faculty compared to America’s academic institutions. The bias that I have encountered has so many facets that I am still encountering new ones."
