   I am not anti-tax.  What I am against is taxing the hell out of people   
   in realized and hidden taxes, taxes as inflation to bailout corrupt   
   banks, bailout unions and businesses, buddy deals, inflated contracts,   
   corporate welfare and the huge money for nothing waste going on.   
      
   Very little Ottawa spends goes to education, health, roads....but how   
   many people know government spends more on itself in general   
   administration than it spends on common good?   
      
   Its the uncommon good I have problems with.  Taxes were never meant to   
   bailout and subsidize losers, money for nothing....excessive waste.   
      
   Taxation in Canada has become modern day slavery.  No meaningful options   
   on the ballot to eliminate the corruption and get effective, efficient,   
   economical and less taxing governments.  All parties argue how to spend   
   more of our money on uncommon good and leaving us with less money for   
   each others jobs.  They even manufacture a job problem to pretend to fix   
   it, its about illusions, deceptions....only answer Ottawa knows is more   
   government bloat and taxes.   
      
   Hey statism types, challenge this.  If we pay taxes to buy jobs, how   
   does that leave us with more of our money to spend on each otehrs jobs?   
      
   Jobs come from affordable exchange of desired goods and services.  How   
   does government taxing the income+spend side so much help provide real   
   jobs?  By what leap of irrational logic can we be left with less of our   
   own money. devalued money, tax inflated prices and spend more on other   
   peoples jobs?   
   --   
   Socialist-statism corruption is a great idea so long as the credit is   
   good and other people pay for it. When the credit runs out and those   
   that pay for it leave, they can all share having nothing but   
   unemployment, debt and discontentment.
