Some say 1 in 3 dollars the government spent are wasted and while I don't think paying toll for everything is feasible much less desirable, I absolutely don't buy any tax and spent regime.

We are already very heavily taxed, NL has just increased their HST to 15% from 13% next year. Add personal income tax, gas tax and other hidden form of taxes, the just getting by middle class easily pays 1 in 2 dollars they make to taxes. Tax freedom day in Canada is pushing close to July 1 every year now.

Even with that this country is still mired in debt with no end in sight.
