These are my thoughts and opinions on many topics. My passions are the stock market and helping abandoned and orphaned animals. In this world, it seems most things don't make much sense to me anymore. This is my feeble attempt to share all of the above. The blogs will include items that might make you shake my head as well as give you my take on why they happen. Enjoy.

Canada whining.....again

It seems Canada is always whining about what it's big brother, the good old USA, is doing around the world.  Here's a hint Mr. Morneau, lower your taxes on your citizens to build economic growth in Canada. Taxes on everything in Canada are outrageously high, sales tax (varies per province) can be as high as 13%, gasoline taxes are over $1 per gallon, plus federal income taxes,  province income taxes, etc. The communists in the MSM would make you believe that in Canada you get far more services than in the US and that the tax rates are fairer, but they are wrong.  The MSM also states that the wealthy do not pay their fair share if taxes in the US. Wrong!
"The effective total tax rate for Americans varies, too: "The top 1 percent of American taxpayers still pay an effective tax rate of approximately 31.9 percent, on average, while the bottom 20 percent of the population pays an average of approximately 3.9 percent," reports the Peter G. Peterson Foundation."
Bottom line, Canada is an overtaxed Socialist country that should work on its own economy and tax system and stop whining that the US is causing them problems worldwide. End of rant.
