ah so the correct term would be supporting monarchy, not the british royals directly.

makes sense that the costs would stay relatively the same if it funded a said President.

but for a cup of coffee a year, i don't get too worked up about it.

preferences are another story.

Me neither, besides, I value the tradition and long history it represents and in reality they cost us next to nothing. Many nations that eliminated their monarchies lived to regret it. The Spaniards for example reinstated theirs and the Americans have spent 200 years creating their home grown versions of royal families and the associated pomp and circumstance. They're the biggest fans of the British/Canadian royals

Imagine the government buying you 62 million cups of coffee. That's what they've basically done for MLSE.

I wouldn't get that worked up over the adscam, it was less than the price of a coffee.
