Canadian store finally loweing prices

[mikedavid00]

I was too busy at work today to post.

I was listening the the CBC radio. (I have to becuase AM reception doens't work at my work. I listen to CBC about 8 hours a day believe it or not. It is an anti-Canadian, tax vacuum, self hating radio station with rare exceptions. Today I learned all about video games in China and the social problems of video games in China. Consequently, the host is 'Asian Canadian' so it fills his ghettoised special interest while the CBC continually violates its mandate. I filed a complaint on the website. I also did this about another storey and never got a response). This time I threatened to take it further if they did not respond. The first complaint was over videogame/chat rooms in Brazil where our tax dollars funded CBC employees to go to Brazil to do a 5 min report on a local issue that has nothing to do with Canadians.

Anyway, this book store owner in Toronto came on the radio show at noon and basically said he sells his books at the American price marked on the book

He said business is up 89% over the same time last year since he did this.

He doesn't suffer from the self hatred Canadian mindset and understand economics I guess.

You know, the first time I turned Conservative (when I was 18 years old?) is when someone actually EXPLAINED why lower taxes are better for us as a whole. I think his name was Rush Limbaugh. He said when you LOWER transit fairs, more people will take transit meaning they will make more money. They then got small business owners to show their hands and asked how many people they would lay off if they got further tax increases. That made it real clear.

Jennie cannot understand these concepts becuase maybe she's never actually been told or taught why lower taxes or especially capital gains taxes help our economy.

Think about it. A well to do person makes money off investments should not be taxed. On it's face, it sounds rediculous, but there's never, ever another side to the issue that explains why this rich person being taxes is a BAD thing.

Maybe someone can explain why taxing rich and capital gains is such a bad idea for Jennie.

Using that logic on its own implies that transit companies will make the most money with a transit fare of one cent. Which is obviously ridiculous since at one cent per person running any sort of transit system is unsustainable. Then again, Rush Limbaugh also says things like "The only way to reduce the number of nuclear weapons is to use them." Maybe he is not the best source.

Right, we should only tax the poor people who earn wages for a living. That makes sense.

There is always another side to an issue. Always.

One is right and one is wrong though.
