For whoever is wondering, no, I am not a wealthy business owner. I just cannot stand this way of thinking, and hate how Trudeau/Mulcair try to make middle class citizens believe they're in trouble.

Harper wants you to believe you're life is in danger
Trudeau/Mulcair want the middle class to believe they're poor
Well except we do need more revenue for some of the programs Trudeau and Mulcair have been proposing. Trudeau's approach of higher personal income tax for the wealthy is considered the better approach by most economists than Mulcair's approach of taxing corporations.

EDIT: Also, and this goes for me as well, let's try to keep the policy debates to the main election thread.
