Default Re: OT 2 party political system

Captain Kwok: Yeah, those of us who were politically alive (ie >18yrs old) before the GST have no love for the PCs. What I don't understand is how they've survived in Eastern/Atlantic Canada - the HST is running at what, 20% !?!? (for those who don't know the HST, it's the "harmonized" federal and provincial sales taxes. Harmonized because it's easier for multiple branches of the government to screw purchasers when you only have one office collecting it all )

My concern is that the Liberals are simply not accountable - how can they ever lose an election? I'd rather have the Yukon Advocacy of Ganga Smokers League And Commune (YAGSLAC) run the country than have the Liberals another term. We simply need the Liberals to be hungry enough to be honest, and it really doesn't matter who takes office in the interim - I mean how badly can the country be screwed up in a five year term anyways? It takes a good 3.5 years just to come to grips with the sprawling beaurocracy (sp).
