Lower taxes are great, right? Unfortunately the Conservative plan to cut taxes only applies to those making big bucks. See David Crane's take on what a Harper budget will offer to the rest of us:
Crane: Tories' tax change may shorten honeymoon: "Like the GST proposal, the Harper Child Care Allowance spreads a lot of money very thinly without achieving much good, and also delivers the biggest benefits to the well off. An executive's wife who can afford to stay at home, and who has no taxable income, will pocket the entire $100 a month for each child under 6. A working mother struggling to get by on a modest income will pay tax on the $100. "
