Tax cuts are a short term solution. Whenever the price jumps, conservatives are quick to point out to the cost of the gas tax. Well the gas tax didn’t jump up, so that is clearly not what cause the jump.

Yes, lowering the gas tax would reduce the price. Until the next jump, then youre back at square one.

Im slightly less old (albeit still old) and this is my ditto ditto

And recycling most plastics. End up in a landfill because its cheaper than actually recycling them.

Its Friday on Epsilon 6

I havent seen any evidence that hes alive.

At least with epstein there was some.

Email and complain saying this will let liberals scam us

There is far more to mail delivery than junk mail. Yes a lot is digital, but the post still serves very real needs. And it is a service. Its not there to make money.

Socialism!!! /s

Is there any public service that isn’t under attack with the threat of privatization?

Calling it now: hes gonna sell it to a buddy for 20 and make the ontario people eat the difference.

I only played a bit of rune factory (I think 4) and it seemed like it was a ton of story and very controlled with the farming aspect. It could be I didnt play enough though

The people who vote conservative do not care about policy. They care about voting blue. You can tell because they still hate carney

Yeah kinda, or the incentive to have a car you keep amping up with new gear and parts rather than it being cheaper and easier to just buy a new car.

Like forza horizon 1, the upgrades felt expensive and meaningful and new cars were so expensive. Could be nostalgia goggles though

Plex ftw

No it does not. It means the difference is turned into higher profit. This is what we saw. We did not see the price of groceries going down when thr tax was removed

Because they would be mostly white. And the loudest anti immigrants in canada seem to revere the US

Unless of course the government invests in those basic necessities to keep the cost to consumer low.

Like having the government spend taxes on actual subsidized food production with the goal of it being a service to the people, not a business. Or on housing to the scale where real estate doesn’t get out of control due to low supply.

Id rather a world where necessities are cheap and luxuries are expensive than the world we have now where necessities are expensive and luxuries are cheap.

I typically agree, except that cons are really good at convincing a ton of people to vote against their own best interests.

Like in Ontario… I’m in a rural area and I hear people bitch about Healthcare and education getting worse, yet they voted for a guy who cuts those things in order to build a highway and a spa.

And guys who very well could do with an EV, bitch about gas prices and bitch about ev financial incentives.

Everything is paid for by the consumer.

This is why you cant stop at taxing them more. It also needs to come with enhancing social safety nets and services.

Take more money from those who benefit the most economically from society, and use that money to enhance the lives of everyone.

People are less worried about paying 20 cents more for gas if they know they have more than enough to cover everything else. Right now everyone has been smacked by rampant inflation with little wage growth so every extra dollar going out hurts a lot more.

Hmmm I’ll habe to look into it. I seriously doubt it, though.
