Again false because
A) When you first posted you were not referring to a 100% tax rate given the poster you responded to didn’t mean that
B) a lowering from 100% to 90% would see exponential increase in investment in the economy. But false for the context of our discussion given that…our tax rate in Alberta is 8% and you do not see a “dramatic increase in investment “ at this range.
