It's those god damned boomers, man (more so terrible policy-making, which we're still very good at doing poorly today) | ||

Who elects the policy makers? Fact is, only ~25% of Canadians are net tax payers. The rest work for a government, are unemployed, disabled, retired, or receive more funding from the government than they put in. So yeah, it's the boomers, the government workers, unemployed, disabled, etc... The status quo is what Canadians want. It's why anyone with ambition (ie. wants to work and/or be an entrepreneur) leaves. | ||
