Socialism kills jobs and economies

Socialism is running down our economies and financial situations. The NDP with Andrea Horwath in Ontario wants to make it worse than it already is. The NDP wasn’t even able to project a correct costing of their plans for free dental care, childcare and many other social programs at an incredible cost of many billions of dollars, on top of our $325-billion debt.

Horwath acknowledged the faulty costing and stated Ontarians would face six more years of big deficits.

She also wants to increase taxes to pay for her unrealistic plans as if Wynne hasn’t done a bad enough job. Where is her logic, Ontario is bankrupt as it is.

Socialists are killing the engine to create a strong economy, which is free market enterprise and a healthy business climate. They purposely refuse to acknowledge that under strong economies tax revenues are pouring in to pay for social services for the people depending on it if done in a responsible manner. Their job-killing policies are choking businesses and taxing people to death. They love spending people’s hard-earned money, because in their arrogance they feel they know better what people need than people themselves.

Under Horwath we will see more significant tax increases and a continuation of a depressed economy because that is what socialism does. People, open your eyes and think before you vote; don’t make the same mistake as four years ago with Wynne at a devastating cost to Ontario.
