    Not really....

    I'm also a very big fan of deductables and added tax.... Ie. you can get a tax refund if you insulate your house better, which lowers your power need... But I am all in favour of taxing the hell out of you should you want to have heat cables in your driveway so you won't have to shuffle snow during the winter(yes, people do that.)...

    Then US billionares use some other method of dodging taxes. The end result remains the same, how they do it is irrelevant.

    EDIT: And I very much doubt that people care about losing a Norwegian citizenship....

    Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban
