HST, lets pay more tax

How far can the elite continue to push the middle and lower classes seems to be the question here. The HST appears to attack mainly consumers and medium and small businesses while helping out large business, and thus the elite. Obviously Canada needs to maintain competitive in order to keep jobs, but this seems to have come to a whole new level of ridiculousness. The dissapearing middle class is becoming the lower class, these people are often forced to work two or more jobs just to make ends meet. Why on earth would governemnt want to make these people pay an even more ridiculous amount of tax while big businesses recieve tax relief while paying their CEO's yearly bonuses that equal more than the average lower class citizen would make in 20 years at one of their menial jobs. Reduce the deficit? How about responsible government instead, HST= us the public bailing out the government and big business. Debt has become the biggest control mechanism in today's society, Canadians pay to much tax for the services we recieve, now we will pay more.
