Yes, but raising sales tax (which I'm not really against) would upset most of the working class and low income earners, this Liberal government doesn't want that. Sales tax penalize minimum wage earners since sales tax is considered a regressive tax and doesn't change much of anything for high income earners. So again low income earners would be most penalized by this. New Brunswick might just be the most taxed juridiction in NA for the rich, well NB is possibly the most borderline bankrupt province or state in North America, so something needs to be done and the poorest people in this province can't give more of the very little they have left. BTW I'm not a low income earner or a high income earner, I'm right there in the middle, but I just like to have a non biased view on this topic, because as New Brunswickers we are all stuck in this financial mess together.

This is my last comment on this topic which is not a Retail Discussion per se.
