I guess I'm the first and probobly only person on here to say I'd vote NDP, just as I did last time. I vote based on my ideology and would personally sacrifice some money to have a healthier, cleaner and safer nation.
As for all of you who want to pick and choose your taxes, run for office and decide what's worth tax dollars and what isn't. That's part of what we elect government to do. If everyone could choose their own payments, we wouldn't even have health care because most people are too damn selfish to share any more than they're made to. You can't enjoy the benefits of this nation that suit you and disreguard what is needed for everyone else.

That's what I'm saying, voting out individual taxes is a fantasy. I was going further by saying that in my experience, most people that bring that up usually follow it with this sort of thinking: I don't want to pay for a sculpture I want it to go on attack helicopters (a hypothetical example).
Which is as realistic as me voting in or out the things I listed.
