The Calvinball Diaries: It's not a surplus...
http://mattbufton.blogspot.com/2007/09/its-not-surplus.html
Hey, you, get off of my cloud. Thursday, September 06, 2007. It's not a surplus. Politics is as much about winning the war of semantics as fighting on the actual issues, how successful would the pro-choice movement be if their opponents had been successful in labeling them the pro-baby killers? So as our federal government announces its tenth (give or take) annual surplus I call on everybody out there to start calling it what it is, an overtaxation. Posted by Matt at 9:54 PM. Windsor, Ontario, Canada.

The Calvinball Diaries: December 2006
http://mattbufton.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Hey, you, get off of my cloud. Wednesday, December 27, 2006. Scotch, Scotch, Scotch. In the immortal words of Ron Burgandy I love scotch. Okay, love is pretty strong, but I do enjoy a nice glass of scotch from time to time. So here is installment one in a-perhaps-never-to-be-continued series of reviews. As a Christmas present from my girlfriend's. I received a bottle of The Peat Monster. Posted by Matt at 11:35 PM. Wednesday, December 13, 2006. Beware of Spinning Liberals. 1) That's how the Americans do ...

The Calvinball Diaries: Looks like we can afford those tax cuts...
http://mattbufton.blogspot.com/2007/09/looks-like-we-can-afford-those-tax-cuts.html
Hey, you, get off of my cloud. Thursday, September 27, 2007. Looks like we can afford those tax cuts. Well, well, it looks like we ended up with about $14 billion in loose change behind the sofa cushions for the last fiscal year. By my reckoning we could have afforded that second GST reduction, a return to the lower incomes tax rates enacted in 2005 and a business tax cut too. Posted by Matt at 6:50 PM. September 27, 2007 8:15 PM. It's true, $30-40 is really chump change. But at least it's something.

The Calvinball Diaries: July 2007
http://mattbufton.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Hey, you, get off of my cloud. Tuesday, July 31, 2007. The CMA Gets it Right. The goal of all Canadian governments should be to see that everyone has access to health care; this can be achieved by paying for the care of those who can't afford it. Owning hospitals, employing doctors and nurses, banning health insurance and preventing doctors from working both publicly and privately are all measures that are not only unrelated to this goal, they seem to be preventing us from reaching it. Its not a surplus.

The Calvinball Diaries: On Income Trusts and Corporate Taxes
http://mattbufton.blogspot.com/2007/05/on-income-trusts-and-corporate-taxes.html
Hey, you, get off of my cloud. Thursday, May 31, 2007. On Income Trusts and Corporate Taxes. Turns out there are still a few writers over at the Mop and Pail with their heads screwed on right. In fact, Derek Decloet not only writes a good article. He also manages to offer up the kind of bold policy Canada's new government should be pushing in just one sentence:. Then let's cut the corporate rate to 10 per cent, and watch as Toronto becomes a magnet for head offices.". How about it guys? What do Ted Byfie...
