I don't like TPP either and for that matter I don't like NAFTA either
I think the world has changed and we could do much better by
requiring all our resources must have some level of refined or
manufactured component then sell to who has the money to pay
the price we want to charge

Taxes aren't really a big deal.

Even if they were to increase, that would what, like an extra $100 a year?

Taxes are an extremely big deal for those of us that have to pay them. For the rest of perhaps not so much. Taxes are what will make or break an economy.

I agree that taxes are important to consider.

Which is why I do the responsible thing and create a budget, so that I can be prepared for any increases.

Of course, we all know conbots are notoriously poor at budgeting, but that's what short term thinking gets you.

Teach your children well because they will be the ones paying via huge tax increases .

Let's ship (financial incentive as they end up being salesmen) the remaining babyboomers to Mexico and the economy will pick up just by shipping them the toys they have become used to and 20 years later when they have all gone to some happy hunting ground the 'locals' will have inherited a desire for the same goodies and they are an ever increasing market place for Canadian manufactured goods.

p.s. If today was a curling event I would be tempted to go for a clean sweep lol
