    It's going to get very bad in the US. We started too late, we're still not doing enough, and too many people don't take it seriously.

    Kath, in a similar vein, the US Internal Revenue Service, the government agency to whom we pay taxes, has delayed payment of said taxes to July 15; normally due April 15. Paperwork must still be submitted by the usual deadline but payment has been pushed back three months. This is one of the best ideas to come out of the US government in nearly 250 years of existance.
    Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    Actually filing has now been delayed until 7/15 as well. IRA contribution deadline has likewise been delayed.

    For a change, we had a refund coming back, so we filed and got the $$$!
