Incomes are combined for married couples, mortgages are deductible, kids are deductible, giving old clothes is deductible, and the mileage for driving to the Goodwill to give away the clothes is deductible. You do have to deal with right-wing-religious-fanatics in office right now, but who cares, we have guns! You need to move to the USA.

The problem I have with them these days is they are not fiscally conservative any more. Take the last budget, which increased spending from $180B to $230B (I think). These guys first supported it saying it is a conservative budget. If this budget was conservative, I'd hate to ever see a liberal budget. But, when the NDP made a deal to add an extra $4B in spending (which is less than 10% of spending increase), these guys called it the "deal with the devil".
