Simply sitting back and being a naysayer (not you in particular) is not an acceptable solution.
But I think you're forgetting that going into the May election, the vast majority (nearly 70%) of people wanted a corporate tax increase. Smart or not, the NDP did what the general public wanted. We can't be surprised they did the politically expedient thing. It's not a simple thing after all, there are political consequences. The PCs ran on keeping the tax as is but bringing back health care levies. We all know how that worked out.
