What I find funny is it wasn't a budget or social issue that has a large effect on our country that finally brought down the government, it was an issue that really only hit the politicians in their own pocketbooks! Talk about looking out for your own interests...
I have a question...how did parties ever seize to exist before the funding was put in place in 1993? How do independents even run campaigns without public funding? How did the Green party grow so large without public funding? The public funding was put in place to benefit the incumbent parties and nothing else! It's a sort of "rich getting richer" scheme. The majority party at the time found a way to pad their pockets to help ensure they would remain on top...
