9/10 Canadians want the rich to pay far more.

Yes, taxing someone else is always popular, wonder how many know that the wealthy already pay all the taxes.

Nowhere nearly enough. The economy boomed in the 1950s when they paid 80%. The good old days. Time for a return to traditional values, racing the ass off the wealthy.

The beauty of a democratic society is you can elect a government to help. Good luck with that.

That is correct for once. It is coming. Not taxing the rich is becoming untenable The cost of popular programs like medicare, drugs education is becoming very expensive. The people demand gold plated programs. The poor have no money and the traditional punching bag the middle class is tapped out.

This leaves only one solution - tax the rich bastards.

Being responsible for oneself is another option, but that's too difficult for most with a cradle to grave social system.

So does working, earning and creating a life for yourself.
