Hey guys I want everyone in Canada to have dental care without cost of use, but I'm anxious about the sustainability of a program that pays for dental care through paystub deductions while extending coverage to retirees.
I think the Healthcare funding model in this country is already ill-equipped to handle the boomers retiring (thanks boomers) without us giving them dental care they haven't paid for.
It needs to be funded through capital gains taxes.
Capital gains should be treated the same as income, full stop. Why does capital get extra status over labour?
In theory it's to encourage investment in business. Not saying I agree with that argument.
