I voted today! - Vote early / vote often!
- Thread starter Ceiling Cat
- Start date
Surprising number of "The Liberals promote Genocide" signs and protesters on the way to the early voting place.
No one should vote for the NDP or Green party tbh. We need to give a clear majority if this country needs to move forward. Vote wisely….
Define rich
1. A single taxpayer who earns $1 million per year as an investment banker in Ontario pays a 53.5% marginal tax rate and a 47.3% average tax rate after maximizing his RRSP deduction.
2. A married taxpayer with a stay at home spouse and two small children earning the same amount pays virtually the same rates, the average rate being 47% because of the spousal dependent claim.
Taxpayer 1 is significantly richer than taxpayer 2 yet they are paying the same amount in taxes, more or less. Taxpayer 2 even if they were living in the highest US tax state wouldn't pay nearly that much in tax. In CA it would be a 40.5% average tax rate.
And cutting taxes while keeping our social programs will expand those deficits.
Yes, the math is pretty simple isn't it? The days of getting >1 economic activity via greater consumer spending are done.
I see no evidence that splurging on gov't spending nor splurging on consumer tax breaks significantly move the economy. It's all small incremental gains now via less regulation/controls now.

Well it sounds like you like hurt feelings and don’t like gays and trans people enough to like Trump.
These early voting numbers suggest voter turnout is likely exceed 70% this year, up 10.7% from 2021.
Since 1946, 5 of 6 elections with a 5%+ increase in voter turnout led to a change in governing party.
