BlockerHigh Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 2 hours ago, Bob Long said: whats wrong with gender study? I'm assuming this is academic? we send money "all over" because its good for everyone. Having less illness and conflict e.g., just makes good business sense, as well as being moral. Our tax dollars again are meant to help our country no it’s not our responsibility to pay taxes for other countries my lord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And secondly the ruling class in the USA wouldn't, they'd fight against it. But according to a recent poll nearly one in four americans would support it. So it's gaining steam. And again the question remains, if large segments of the population are irreconcilably divided on culture & values, why continue to fight to impose on each other when people could just have what they want in their own state. We agree 100%, although I don't know what Trump has to do with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t have to give money to pakistan for gender studies to sell products there perhaps you don’t think we need more physicians, better medical equipment and smaller classroom sizes - those clearly aren’t better uses for Canadian tax dollars in your view fair enough - you have different values than me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is, you’ve clearly not been in the work force long enough to feel the effect of taxation and poor policy the fact you believe you use taxation to create prosperity is a naive illusion sold to you by governments the fact you believe taxing Canadians and sending that money to pakistan as an example, for gender studies, increases our GDP suggests you’ve not taken an economics course. suggest maybe you take one or two. best of luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems you believe getting taxed at 45% of your income - goes to govt then 13% on anything you buy with that after tax money - goes to govt and then property tax on top of that - goes to govt Ie - Giving the govt more money from your work than you keep then losing purchasing power through govt printing money / spending - inflation somehow makes you more prosperous interesting take I have to say not sure how you make that Math work lol Edited October 7, 2023 by BlockerHigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
