The aged and the poor get less and less in terms of any real gains, with inflation at 13.9 per cent since McEacherns last budget, not the 12.6 they claim. How can an aged pensioner live on the basic old age: pension of a little over $200 a month? Rents for a one bedroom apartment are over $300 in many cities. Those lucky enough to get annual increases in wages and salaries find that they are shifted into higher tax brackets and often pay most of it to income taxes. The government has in effect a vested interest in inflation. Even by taking an extra $1 billion out of our pockets Ontario will still have a deficit of close to $1 billion. A number of provinces have no. - OHIP premiums and at least one has no income tax nor sales tax. Although we have surplus of hydro the Ontario government is spending literally billions of dollars on nuclear power plants, we don't need. Economist say . that Hydro plans to spend $25 billion could bankrupt the province. Meanwhile they spend thousands on pro- moting electric heat, although it is common knowledge that resistance heating is the most inefficient use of hydro. Any fool knows that you can't spend more than you make. Only governments fail. to see the folly of their ways and keep increasing taxes to pay for their waste. Inflation can' never be beaten until governments at all levels, cut spending. What this country needs is a tax revolt like California had with prosposoition 13. They found that cutting taxes and eliminating the parasitic civil servant waste that added nothing to the gross national product but _ wasteful taxation, the public were better served at much less cost. President Reagan's tax cuts are what the economy needs --- not more taxes! Lower taxes spur economic growth and lessen inflation by 'boosting production, and most important create jobs for the near 1 million unemployed. We are paying a dear price for majority govern- ments, one in Ottawa and the other in Ontario. Dean J.
