HEALTH CARE - User fees

[L Gilbert]

By definition, government always needs subsidization from its citizens, in the form of taxes. Let citizens stop paying taxes, the government will collapse and the nation will be reduced to savagery.

As opposed to the present savagery that we pay through the nose for?

Also, I notice that those who are constantly ranting and raving against taxes usually want somebody else’s services to be cut (get rid of minimum wage, cut social assistance payment, child care subsidy for poor mother etc.). They will be the first to scream at the top of their voice if any services that they take advantage of are cut.

You mean like when Martin cut the provinces' throats after stabbing them in the back (slicing and dicing of health care and education payments) just so he could say he balanced the budget?

.........That is why conservatives almost invariably end up racking up huge debt and huge deficits.

Yes, they learned from the Gliberals very well.
