"Everything that encourages people to spend money is inflationary!"

Does this fucking moron have any idea how economies work?

Here's a fucking hint; if no one ever buys anything, there is no fucking economy.

Yeah, a two month GST holiday ain't gonna do shit, this is a stupid plan, but calling it "inflationary" just exposes how little this idiot understands about anything. Or how little he cares.

I'm pretty sure that any actual understanding of economics is forbidden to Conservatives.

Well we heard it from the horse's mouth - tax cuts are inflationary. In some circumstances they can be but Trudeau should still remind him of this every time he says "axe the tax."
