Liberals shouldn’t tax living locally
It is time to make taxes work for us and the HST is a case in point. Presently the HST is paid (with some exceptions) on all goods and services consumed by the citizens.
If we were to change the HST so that all goods and services created and consumed within the province were not taxed, we would begin to support regional economy in a very real way.
We should not tax our neighbours when they provide a product or service for us. We should not tax local regional economy.
Let us increase the percentage of regional economy in our lives, the only safeguard we have to protect and enrich our lives as the global economy fails.
There should be no tax on living life locally. Change the HST.
