I don't know much about the HST, but doesn't the tax money go to the federal government, not the provincial government? It goes to pay off the Federal debt, not provincial. With the HST, isn't BC at the mercy of the federal government? Is that the future you want for BC? I see it as a short term fix to balance our budget, but in the end the feds will have us by the testicles.
At least when we're po'd with the bc government we can punish them by voting in another party. We can't do that federally.
I don't necessarily mind the idea of a consumption tax even if it means paying a bit more for certain items/services, I just don't like where the money is going.
