Stephen Harper: Corporate tax cuts needed

While in Welland on Friday Mr. Harper was still pushing forward with the corporate tax cuts for all his buddies in the private sector.

Saying:

"We are gaining more revenue from the business sector by having low rates than we were by having high rates," Harper said. "This is in the interest of everybody and it's the direction we'll continue to go."

He also added that the latest job numbers that show full-time employment rose in Canada by 38,000 in December were "encouraging." But he again warned the global recovery is still fragile and "significant challenges" remain.

Am I the only one to see that full time employment numbers rose in December because it was the holiday season? Most companies hire on almost double the staff, just to let them go, come January and February. It is called seasonal help.

Or how about the fact that in December of almost every year previous to the the corporate tax cuts and the "economic downturn", The full time job statistics were around double the 38,000.

Rewarding the corporations with tax cuts is not effective, nor is it working! The only thing that it is doing is making it harder for the little guys to compete. Clearing the market place for the mega corporations.

Take a look at this governments economic policies. Slam the average people with more taxes (H.S.T. , eco tax, and so on) and rewarding the big corporations with tax breaks. Sounds just great for the average Canadian does it not?

That CBC news article does not even touch on the fact that Mr. Harper dodged everyone who came out to see him. Some of the workers who have been locked out by U.S. steel in Hamilton, were there to speak to him. Some concerned Canadians wanted to let him know what they thought about the consumer product safety act, and he even dodged the children who were there to see him.

So Mr. Harper wants to reward the big corporations, and not even let the Canadian people who are being effected by all these polices (not just the tax cuts) see him, never mind get a chance to speak to him.

Oh and Mr. Harper the Canadian people do not care about your "global recovery" We care about fixing Canada, and making it a country for and by the people. Not for and by the corporations!

Ponzi schemes cannot be prosecuted because courts do not have the resources?

After seeing the giant ponzi schemes that have rocked the wold economy, we are seeing countless cases come into the "lime light" in Canada now. But the "white collar" criminals are not being prosecuted!

In the recent case of Tzvi Erez, the Canadian government had enough evidence to charge the man with one count of fraud over $5,000, seven counts of forgery and one count of violating his probation on a prior fraud conviction.

Tzvi Erez used a series of expertly forged documents to defraud more than 70 investors (mostly from the Jewish community in Toronto) of $27 million dollars.

Tzvi approached the victims through intermediaries for cash advances on orders and allegedly promised to return the original investment plus interest fees of 30% once he delivered the printed orders to his clients.

The report, however, quotes a court-appointed official as saying there were no large orders, and that between Jan. 25, 2007 and Feb. 17, 2009, $38.9-million went through eight different bank accounts in Canada that belonged to Tzvi or one of his companies.

The case has now been dropped against Tzvi Erez because the the Crown Attorney's Office and the court system lacks resources.

They are saying that they do not have the resources to prosecute these "white collar" criminals, but the court system can spend $105 million to put serial killer Robert Pickton behind bars. The federal government can spend 16 billion on new fighter jets, 9 billion on new jails, 100 million on the war in Afghanistan, and 20 billion on the G20 summit in Toronto.

It does not make sense. Or does it?

Canada is now the sixth most corrupt country in the world. Source

So is it really surprising that they are not prosecuting any of the criminals that are helping them to gain more control over the people? The more ponzi schemes or whatever else they can cook up, the better. The more the people lose, the more the elite gain.

Not to mention that the fear of these schemes will bring more laws and regulations to prevent them from happening any more. Unfortunately this will only come after they have got what they can and move on to the next scheme. And the average Joe will feel more of the effects from these laws then any of the criminals.

This game has been going on for hundreds of years, and is now getting to a point where there is very little that the elites do not control.

We need to get out of this corrupt banking system before it is way to late (if it is not to late already). If we continue at this accelerated pace of economic tyranny all will be lost forever!
