Here we go again - vote buying 2005

And here we go again. Once again, those crafty vote-whores...er, Liberals, have reached into the goodie bag and pulled out a little something for everyone, dressed up as an "economic update". Well, really, this is simply using government time, resources, etc to explain to us how they are going to buy as many votes as possible in the next election. I mean, really...can we continue to let them get away with this kind of crap? This is nothing more than the Liberal party election platform...

Isn't it just ever so convenient how the vote-whores, er, Liberals, discover the value of cutting taxes just before it looks like there is going to be an election. Otherwise, cutting taxes is never on their agenda - since they have so much extra spending to do, they could never ever think about giving the average Canadian a tax break...whats that? Looks like an election is coming? Time to buy some votes!

Now look at what they are proposing - Ralphie boy trumpeted $30 billion (count it - $30 billion!) in tax cuts. Wow - thats a big round number that will get lots of headlines. Oh, but wait - the usual Liberal sleight of hand is at work - most of these tax cuts take place many, many years from now. Like the big personal income tax cuts come around 2010. 2010??? Jesus - they can spend like there is no tomorrow, but letting you keep some of your hard earned money??? Just be a little patient - the tax cuts will be here soon enough...well, five years from now, and we are hoping that you'll focus on the big shiny number we threw in front of you, vote for us and then forget about it...cause lord knows, if we are still around in 5 years we'll figure out how to get that money back from you...

Corporate tax cuts - well, those are back too! Just sit back for a few years and they'll be right there - 2008 or so...

Once again - I dearly hope that Canadians (particularly the sheeple in Ontario/ the GTA) do not fall for this kind of bullshit and vote Liberal.

But sadly, I am not holding my breath.
