What has 'News Alert Niagara' done?
No sooner had 'News Alert Niagara' published our article titled: Taxing Children into Poverty than the headlines scream out the news that water bills in the City of St. Catharines are to increase by $51 for the average St. Catharines Child's home - ONLY 6.2 per cent (again multiples of inflation) of a child's home!
.
City engineer Anthony Martuccio said the cost of underground work between 2014 and 2018 ranged from $400 to $800 per metre.
Today, those costs have jumped to $1,000 to $1,600 per metre.
Wow! The Cost per meter doubled in one year with no explanation as to what caused this astonishing escalation in price! This on top of last year's increase and not a single question from our city councilors as to why the the staggering cost hike.
In 1989 all of our feckless Canadian leaders swore to wipe out 'Child Poverty' by the turn of the century. Their extraordinary failure is on squalid visual display.
.
Watching our civic leaders huddled around the council table does not fill the imagination with hope that there is even one amongst them that gives a rat-sass to the plight of our children. The only time you hear "its for the children" is from people with their hand out!
Perhaps we missed our councilor's vociferous concern regarding 'Taxing our Children into Poverty'. Perhaps they raised their voice while hiding from the public in Camera.
Dear Officials of failure; Silent 'Spend & Taxers', Heroes of the absurd; here is a statistic for you to chew on: 22% or a little more than one-in-five of our precious children living in poverty while so many are using 'its for the children' as a means to their own selfish ends!
It has been said that some people; people who should know better will tax you out of everything and then expect thanks for the food stamps!
It is well past time to seriously consider cutting one dollar for every dollar added. As a matter of fact, the 'paring of the pile of bovine Waste' that has been piled onto the backs of citizens over the years is in desperate need of correction.
.The official baffle-gab will not excuse spend & tax in the face of Government creation of poverty and homelessness including the pure theft of a defenseless and vulnerable child's rights.
Please tell us Dear Leader, how you envision our future in the face of inflationary tax increases at multiple the rate of inflation?
