Hamonized Sales Tax in Ontario

Ontario's Liberal Premier Dalton McGuinty has decided it is time to kick Ontario residents in the ass by harmonizing the Provincial Sales Tax (PST 8%) and the Goods And Service Tax (GST Federal 5%) as one tax. Under the current two tax system not all items are subject to PST (Children's clothing, groceries, books, services etc), but as of July 2010 everything will be taxed.

It is funny how this cycle works. Big business who become so big that can't run themselves properly (Yeah GM, I am talking about you) go to the government for bailout money. The government, the most incompetent business there is, bails them then we have to bail the government out with higher taxes.

There will be no economic gains by futher raping the tax payer. Remove these two taxes and let us spend our money freely and we will stimulate this failing economy that government created because they can't mind their own business!

I worked for Chrysler Canada for 20 years. I was a good union supporter. Once I opened a business and started seeing both sides of the coin my view changed from left to right. We live in a free enterprise system that when allowed to work, without government constantly putting obstacles in from of it, works perfectly. Our country was founded on small business not big government.

I urge Ontario residents to contact their MPP's and tell them to tell Dalton McGuinty NO, NO, No harmonized tax. Also, no taxes without residents voting on them!

We don't need more government we need less!

My rant for today...
