I would like to respectfully submit Ralph...Brent,<br /> <br />I would like to respectfully submit Ralph Goodale and John McCallum to the Heads of Political Action Committee and Co-Wizards section. This is in recognition that they actually KNOW the truth but chose and continue to choose to do nothing. If this section isn’t appropriate then perhaps you would consider adding a new section called: “Those with Heads Up their Butts” I have just the picture for that section.<br /><br />RandyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141615629701321642.post-14777042837478266442009-12-14T15:25:20.448-05:002009-12-14T15:25:20.448-05:00Anonymous:

By doing so, you have taken your alleged problem caused by income trusts held 38% by tax deferred accounts (ie RRSPs and pension funds) and made it 2.63 time worse (100/38), by having them owned 100% by pensions funds. Are you a moron or what, Mr Flaherty, or do you think that BS answer of yours is able to fool us into blind submission? <br /><br />2.63 times worse, you moron fool of Finance Minister.<br /><br />Its a good thing you don't practice medicine as all your patients would be 2.63 times worse than when they entered your operating table."<br /><br />And if you were so committed to your concept of having "a responsibility to the taxpayers of today not tomorrow.", then why are you running Canada's largest ever deficits, you hypocritical jerk? Who the hell do you think is going to pay for those deficits to fund today's programs if not tomorrow's tax payers?"<br /><br />Nothing that Flaherty ever says holds up to even the most superficial level of scrutiny. Too bad the politicians the press are incapable of prviding even superficial scrutiny, as they haven't a clue about finance or even simplest concepts of finance. Globe and Mail reporters provide soem of the best examples. They rival the NDP for sheer stupidity and love for blacked out documents.<br /><br />Brent FullardFilliblusterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06563618107971013947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141615629701321642.post-10029871007842638732009-12-14T14:44:59.576-05:002009-12-14T14:44:59.576-05:00An intersting parallel.

The small but crutial difference however is that the Finance Minister reluctantly admitted to the Finance Committee that he didn't include defered taxes from RRSPs in his tax leakage calculations because he (and I'm paraphrasing here) 'has a responsibility to the taxpayers of today not tomrrow.' <br /><br />Kind of stupid way for a Finance Misniter to look at things because most of us are the same taxpayers be it today or ten or twenty years from now. none the less Flaherty Flaherty did essentially tell Canadians what is under the blacked out portions of that document.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141615629701321642.post-36675001634301086002009-12-14T14:40:12.100-05:002009-12-14T14:40:12.100-05:00Don't forget O'Flaherty's spin doctor,...Don't forget O'Flaherty's spin doctor, Dan Miles.
