Ontario gov't looking at taxing Youtube and Netflix

[35wailin]

Taxing pay sites like netflix with a tax like gst or pst would be possible. My question is, how in the world could you possibly tax free websites like YouTube, et al?

Alright guys, I'll pay the extra 1.04$ for Netflix if that make them happy.....

That won't make them happy, they'll just move onto the next lie to steal more money from us. I'm sorry, but I'm sick of it.

I just did my tax return and got nailed because of Ontario SURTAX. SURTAX - just call it a normal tax, that's what it is, and everyone is paying it (if your taxes are over $4300, which I assume all of yours are). The surtax brings the maximum tax bracket in Ontario to almost 50%!!!!

Then what tax is hidden in gas, how much penalty (tax) do we pay in hydro due to wasted money ($1 bill let's not forget). I haven't done the math, but I'm sure we are paying like 60% tax on average, when you sum everything up. In 20 years from now, what will it be? 80%? Everyone will just say screw it, and stop working. What's the point - you break your back working and then it all gets taken away and use by others??

Liberals will cause an economic collapse in this province if they are in power. They will simply tax us to death and kill any strong work spirit. You get rewarded for not trying. You get penalized for doing the right things and contributing to society. It's all backwards.
