25% of my wage goes to taxes, not 50%.
Gee, I remember my parents buying something called insurance before the gubmint took over healthcare. We never were without food, or clothes, or a roof.Until they get desperately ill and can afford neither food, clothing or a roof!![]()
Property tax, sales tax....Does that cover ALL taxes, hidden ones included? Most of us put gas in our vehicles w/o even giving tax a thought. One of the most hideous taxes is that real estate tax whenever you purchase a house. I would say you are damn lucky if you get away with only 25%. What percentage of utility bills are tax?

Where pigs live they pay a monthly fee for free healthcare so it only makes sense to spend a little more and buy private coverage.A big discount to the patient, his operation was not free to all Canadians that paid for it.
What is happening in America ?Exactly. Providing safeguards to our most vulnerable members of society has been proven to be beneficial for all segments of society. The top 5 countries in quality of life all have affordable housing, healthcare to all, and welfare for the poor. It's not perfect, but it is far better than what is happening in America.
Maybe , but how much is to much ? With federal , provincial and municipal taxes ladies and fees we already give better then 50% . When is enough enough ? How many times have I heard , it is only the cost of your daily coffee ?I guess what it all boils down to is people who balk at paying taxes would rather have a free ride paid by someone else!![]()
I guess what might an acceptable alternative might be for everyone to take the responsibility for their own health and buy their own health insurance where the premiums are based on risk. That wouldn't address the problems faced by the destitute, so maybe the existing system IS best overall.
Are you adding in PST , GST , water , sewer , municipal , licensing fees , etc.? Gov ernment takes they don’t give .25% of my wage goes to taxes, not 50%.

Whether he knows it or not, MB he is going down and it will only get worse between now and Nov.3!
I admire your confidence JLM, I am not as confident as you in your prediction but I am hopeful. It's going to get much worse, no doubt about that. Trump knows only one way to fight, dirty and sadly people who support him eat that shit up.
