TAX MATTERS Overtaxing the rich: A cautionary tale

TAX MATTERS Overtaxing the rich: A cautionary tale by TIM CESTNICK The nice thing about an election year that’s accompanied by federal budget surpluses is that it’s fertile ground for tax cuts – and both the Conservatives and Liberals have promised that tax savings are on the way. But who should really benefit from tax cuts? While it might not seem politically correct to suggest that the rich should get the lion’s share of tax breaks, let me share a story that I first shared many years ago that provides food for thought here. The cost of dinner Each and… View Article
