Let’s buy some votes and get businesses to pay for it.

Trudeau’s making it tougher on students
THOMAS ROBSON, SPECIAL TO THE TORONTO SUN. FIRST POSTED: THURSDAY, AUGUST 31, 2017 08:36 PM EDT | UPDATED: THURSDAY, AUGUST 31, 2017 08:40 PM EDT
As doctors, other professionals and small business owners gear up for a tax war with federal Finance Minister Bill Morneau and the Liberals, post-secondary students have quietly — and for most, unknowingly — taken a serious financial hit as well.
Those groups are all angry with the federal government over proposed changes to small business tax rules that could increase the amount of taxes they have to pay.
Similarly, post-secondary students across Canada are at risk of their taxes increasing in the coming year, although this controversy isn’t as widely known.
As a fourth-year university student who has benefited from the existing education and textbook tax credits put in place by the previous federal government, I have worked every summer to gain experience for the future and to save sufficient funds to support my coming academic year.
(And how sad that though this 4th years student will no doubt be working again in future- but his wages will NOT be increasing in spite of his growing knowledge and experience because his boss has been hit with new LIE-beral taxes that will pick the pockets of both employer and employee! And this pocket picking will be all in the name of finding the funding necessary for the civil service Hog gravy train so LIE-berals- with their oh so many FAILED POLICIES- can cling to power just a little longer!)
Student summer income helps pay for school, residence and living expenses during the academic term.
(Yes. Such student employment helps minimize the amount of debt that students incur in the course of getting that NECESSARY education- over 75 percent of all jobs out there DEMAND post secondary education- and that debt is often crippling- which explains why so many kids end up back at the parents house- and it explains why 25 percent of kids end up bankrupt- the cost of major debt coupled with LOW wages, high taxes and soaring rents ensures that a lot of kids are fiscally hobbled for a LONG TIME!)
For some, this summer income allows them to take out smaller Ontario Student Assistance Plan (OSAP) loans, decreasing their debt when they graduate.
The current education and textbook tax credits which the Trudeau government is eliminating, allow student incomes to be taxed at a lower rate, leaving more funds available to support the ever increasing costs of post-secondary education.
(Post secondary education is the preserve of a pack of gravy train riding union Hogs who ENJOY their monopoly powers! College presidents made headlines last spring by demanding fifty percent raises- pretty much IMMEDIATELY! With LIE-berals telling college Hogs to cool it till after the 2018 election! LIE-berals have been caught out too many times making plans for HUGE tax and fee increases to be implemented AFTER they get re-elected- and they DO NOT like the current public reaction to their plans!)
As a full-time student, I received a credit of $4,185 — enabling me to keep more of my earned income to support myself during the school term.
The loss of that credit and the increased taxes that will result limits the funds students can generate to pay for their education.
(Face it kid- your generation has screwed itself in LIE-beral eyes- LIE-berals are totally focussed on votes and clinging to power at any price- and the younger generation does not often vote- meaning they have essentially told LIE-berals that kids do not care what LIE-berals do to them! But Hogs vote early and often- hence their value to LIE-berals- and that explains the regular supply of gravy- AS REWARD for loyalty to LIE-bberals!)
Ironically, the most pain will likely be felt in the middle class — the very group Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberals catered to in their 2015 election campaign.
(CLEARLY you are NOT studying political science or recent history or you would know that LIE-berals have hundreds of billions of dollars worth of IOU`s outstanding for Hog pensions- an economy CRIPPLING COST!)
Taxing the rich, which is what Morneau claims the Liberals are doing by changing the small business corporate taxation rules, may be an easy political win for the government.
But the Liberals’ silent attack on Canadian students who are attending colleges and universities is egregious and misguided.
These students will help to grow the Canadian economy as they move into the workforce and become higher bracket income earners and taxpayers in the coming years.
But with its proposed changes to education and textbook credits, the Liberal government will make it financially harder for students to attend post-secondary institutions.
(And do you REALLY THINK LIE-berals CARE about your troubles?)
While Trudeau and his government relied heavily on students and the youth vote to gain power in 2015, their pandering on issues such as legalizing pot doesn’t offset the pocketbook pinch students are about to feel, courtesy of the federal Liberals.
(That was then- when they needed your votes- and this is Now- and they are in power and do not need your support! But you can COUNT ON a pack of new LIE-beral promises in 2019- prior to the next federal election!)
The government has been lucky so far in not having its removal of the education and textbook credit become a major public issue; presumably because students were busy working this summer and haven’t had the time to notice or protest this misguided and incorrectly targeted tax grab.
If Trudeau and Morneau are to remain as politically savvy as they proved to be in the 2015 election campaign, there has to be federal action to help university and college students across the country defray the costs of their education.
(Politically savvy? Throwing money at special interest groups and buying votes with WORTHLESS IOU`s is not savvy- its unscrupulous and it will be their undoing as their very many promises are completely UN-AFFORDABLE! Trying to pay off even a fair portion of LIE-beral promises will BREAK our economy!)
Removing tax credits aimed at helping these students isn’t a way to do that.
The prime minister’s website says he’s working to make post-secondary education more affordable.
If so, he should reconsider this move which will do the opposite.
(You have 2 years to wait and then you can register your frustration in the ONLY way LIE-berals truly recognize- at the ballot box!)
