Taxes

[Ron99]

Politicians and all sorts of groups demanding money/support/aid etc. so the politicos hand them money for votes etc. Let's not forget all the huge amounts of waste (gun registry anyone?), and theft due to corruption.

Ha, ha, I think you missed the latest, Carbon Tax. I've been seeing that on my natural gas bill for a while now, along with a 'clean energy levy'. What's up with that? One or the other, but both???

And now our beloved politicians are giving themselves another two months off because of the Olympics? Prorogue indeed! Nice. They're probably the only ones that can get their hands on any decent tickets for the popular venues. He, he, look out, you got me started now...

Yes the new HST! I honestly belive if I work harder and get a third job I could afford some more taxes, I can't wait untill I retire and have a fixed income, my current one is broke.

With them being prorogued they can't pass any new taxes into law!!!! Every day that they are on holiday, is one less day they can pass new laws to intrude into your life.

Why is it that no political party ever runs on a platform of removing government from your life? They always run on a platform of more intrusion into it.
