Don’t spend what you don’t have

How glad I’ll be when the HST debate and referendum is over. In the end the government will get its money.

We have a premier who’s running around spending money like an election has been called, an opposition leader who promises more spending and a perfect example in Greece as to what happens when you spend more than you bring in.

As that country found out, there’s a combination of two choices: raise taxes or reduce spending. And now that has become a condition of their continued financing.

I’d like to hear from the two leaders as to their positions on the deficit and debt.
