Re: no sanity in saying “yes” The Times June 14/ 2011

Mr. Banov I can not believe you are bringing up the matter of honesty when talking about this HST cash grab, and if you are seriously taking this governments word that this 12 percent tax will go to10 percent in three years after an election that the BC Fiberals will very likely lose in the first place, and if god forbid they do win, more than likely two more deficit budgets, I have got a bridge I will sell you real cheap. 

BC is a have not province thanks to the Fiberals and their voodoo economics, BC would undoubtedly have had another Federal government transfer payment if the HST had not been implemented.  I doubt very much this will ever be paid back, the $1.6 billion will turn out to be just another transfer payment just like the 5 others this province has had with our Fiberal masters deft stewardship of the BC economy. 

I would agree with you that taxes are necessary but would have to say accepting a 140 percent tax increase on hundreds of necessary products and services is truly insane.  

You have obviously not been hit with some of the more onerous injustices of this tax as I have, over $1700.00 extra and counting. Do you realize that if you had a roof replaced on your home you are looking at, at least $1400 dollars alone in HST can you imagine what a kitchen renovation would cost extra. 

Maybe this is chicken feed to you but to most seniors and the majority of families this is the difference between eating and going hungary or maybe having a roof over their heads literally. 

Once again maybe you could  tell me what economic theory recommends adding huge tax loads on consumers to help pull a country out of recession.
