So? Just because they're costed out (to a deficit) doesn't mean that it's not massive spending.

8.2B actually... and they did say how they are going to pay for it. You may not like how they intend to pay for it but that doesn't mean that they didn't cost it out. Which is more then Harpers done on what few non-budget promises (that don't take effect until 2015/16... maybe) that he's released. Surprise surprise... the former President and CEO of a Right-Wing think tank's opinion comes out on the side of the right-wing party. He didn't "shred" any credibility unless you were already predisposed to disbelieve it to begin with. I could just as easily point towards the opinions of Jim Stanford or other economists of his ilk regarding corporate taxes but they're no more credible then Mintz.
