   Actually, the biggest ones screwed are single working people.  Married   
   with kids has many more deductions and generally 2 work capable people.   
      
   But basically everyone not living near poverty gets screwed.   
      
   Best way to beat it is use TFSA type accounts.  Use it or loose it as   
   someday some greedy bugger in Ottawa is going to cancel the accounts.   
   You just know it.   
      
   Just government greed.  Does government work for you, or do you really   
   work for government without the benefits?   
   --   
   Government isn't the solution to the bad economy, it is the problem.
