EDITORIAL

Clamping down on tax evasion Our government's plan to clamp down on tax evasion by equalizing the levies on heating oil and automotive diesel has come up against numerous obstacles, some of which however are only pretexts.

But there's no doubt that whoever moves into the White House in January next year will be better than the incumbent president.
