If...Umm..I don't see how all tax cuts are good. If you cut taxes in all areas then where will the government get any money for spending? In the time of the crisis we shoudl have seen more taxation in my opinion. It's the best way to get out of a crisis. Not just make money out of thin air and claim that we'll pay for that later.<br /><br />Take care, JulieRealtor in Torontohttp://juliekinnear.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31099203.post-57260848444244489862009-10-30T19:16:53.116-04:002009-10-30T19:16:53.116-04:00Tax cuts are designed to accompany spending cuts.
...Tax cuts are designed to accompany spending cuts.<br /><br />The Harpo Tories made eensy weensy tax cust and then blew the bank spending.<br /><br />Any tax cut is good -- because it cuts WASTE.<br /><br />But the Harpo tax cuts, while of net if near microscopic benefit to the Canadian economy, are not the point.<br /><br />Like all Tories Harpo craves power, and to satisfy said appetite requires growth in government -- especially spending.<br /><br />Of course Tories always get away with their spending excesses, because they always have an excuse, and they can always get away with more socialism and statism in practise than any Liberal or dipper could.<br /><br />MacDonald. Bennett. Mulroney. Harpo. All did more to establish Canada as a socialist state than any Liberal did. Trudeau just redecorated.<br /><br />It may be that Iggy would do less social democratic damage to the country than Harpo.<br /><br />I just wish the Liberals WERE liberal, instead of playing the lightweight social democrats to the Tory heavyweights.John Collisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06224569566655043954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31099203.post-81978523227285981362009-10-30T08:12:44.228-04:002009-10-30T08:12:44.228-04:00Reminds me of the revisionist history of claiming ...Reminds me of the revisionist history of claiming Mulroney did not inherit the debt from Trudeau.<br /><br />It is a shame the posters and media tend to remember details that reinforce only their narrative.<br /><br />What was the actual figure did the CPC led government post according the Auditor General before the "technical" recession occur?CanadianSensehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01010880162544507668noreply@blogger.com
