sales taxes is already the best form of taxing
it's discretionary and everybody pays a fair share

It is, but it doesn't matter. VDZ is having Liberals by the nose now. Too bad voter vote based on emotion, popularity and politics, not fundamentals and track record. 1 publicized mistake trumps years of positive results, yet they forget about the 10+ years of disaster the NDP brought onto the province.

No shame on VDZ, he's just using the incident and people for his own cause. No shame on Liberals, they are just not politically smart. Shame on the clueless average joe tho.

VDZ is a dumbass. Hanson came out explaining that the agreement with the Federal Gov't prevents them from changing the HST, either up or down, within 2 years after HST is started.

VDZ won major popularity/politically... but no hiding that he's employing every dirty trick possible in attacking the Lib. It's clear that he's just a foreman fronted by the oppositions, trying to bring down the Lib at all cost to the province.

I actually have discussed this with my friends few weeks ago, reduce HST by 1% would make everyone p ...

That's what I thought day 1 before they even instated HST. Heck, any little perk would calm the peasants easy. Problem is they can't change the HST as agreed with the Fed Gov't. More-over, Liberals being Liberals, they don't really like to do hand-outs (HST rebates and sh_t, like Ontario), which I think it's a good thing.

Yet, voters are all hypocites. When NDP is on board and doing hand-outs left and right, they complain the economy is in the toilet. When Lib is on board cutting everything and being business oriented, attracting investments, etc, they are complaining they are ripping voters off... Obviously both sucks, but flipping between the two doesn't make things any better either.
