WTF is “inflation tax”?
You see, the conservatives believe that the government spending money during COVID to help the people of Canada out during a crisis was, "causing justinflation". When in reality, we didn't even spend the most during COVID and we had one of the more moderate cases of inflation during COVID compared to other g7 countries. And that every other country was experiencing inflation aswell due to supply line snags, worker shortages, people literally dying in the millions, the bird flu killing hundreds of millions of chickens etc.
Another menaningless conservative catchphrase meant to rage farm
For a Change.
Gobble the knob
I had to look it up. It's what the Conservative party is calling the budget deficit. Carney's proposed budget has more spending than income and they're calling it "inflation tax" now. Probably because "axe" and "deficit" don't rhyme.
TAX BAD! Tax cause all problems, like inflation!
