EDITORIAL
Winning the war on tax evasion
 The anti-graft legislation drafted by National Economy Minister Giorgos Alogoskoufis is a first, decisive step against one form of anti-social behavior. In actual fact, tax dodging is extreme anti-social behavior on the part of that segment of the population who, by shirking their financial obligations, make illicit gains from depriving the state of much-needed funds for health, education and insurance policies.
COMMENTARY
Who’s in the driver’s seat?
 We like to blame the state, external powers or other dark forces for any ills that beset the country. But we always shirk responsibility. Driving down Syngrou Avenue yesterday, I saw the driver of a blue bus packed with passengers. He was holding a cigarette in one hand while using his other to hold his cell phone into which he was talking. I am sure that his smoking and call are both prohibited.
