That's not, however, what liberals have in mind when they talk of raising taxes. With liberals, it's all wealth redistribution and making life easier for the poor and lazy.
That's not true at all. It might suprise you that one of our most liberal Senators Bernie Sanders wants to spend money to update our infrastructure
Actually it is true, last Friday your man Bernie was rather explicit on Bill Maher about wanted to redistribute wealth. At the 5:33 mark "So yes, I do want to redistribute that wealth."
If by my post you mean your post, then sure.
Thanks for admitting defeat.
your choice of a 28 year window, per your chart
that was the beginning of the chart. i posted it to show the claimed numbers did not match.
you posted it to make your point.
As I recall, Churchill was never an economist; so we do we even listen to this fool ?Consider the following quote from Winston Churchill:

Seriously? That's your angle here? There isn't a conservative around, including Churchill, who's against taxation used to build and maintain infrastructure and on research and development. That's not, however, what liberals have in mind when they talk of raising taxes. With liberals, it's all wealth redistribution and making life easier for the poor and lazy.
Yep. Like that socialist health care your country has.
You may believe we have socialist healthcare, and that's fine - it's a good quip. After a few years on this site, it's perfectly clear that Americans haven't much of a clue what Canada's healthcare system is about and what it does or doesn't cover and what direction it's moving in.
LOL. I guess canadian conservatism is equal to american socialism.
Oh my....are you arguing that works projects do not have redistributive aspects?who's against taxation used to build and maintain infrastructure and on research and development.....
With liberals, it's all wealth redistribution.......
But just a moment ago you said:Good for Bernie Sanders - now, what part of the bloated federal budget does the good Senator want to reduce or displace in order to up the capital improvements he wants to promote?
Isn't that what Greece tried to do?
Wrong again, but keep trying. Eventually, you might luck into one cogent comment worth considering.

Why has the requirement suddenly changed from taxation to cuts in other programs?
I find it amusing that a Canadian is comparing about welfare in american when he supports the holy grail of socialism: Single payer healthcare. That is a line that no american liberal has tried to cross yet. I personally hope we get socialist style healthcare like you support instead of romney-republican national healthcare law we have now. Like it or not you are a socialist.
I never said you did. Your methods of avoiding a point about your contradictions are getting creative.I don't remember suggesting anything to you.
