0% income tax for minimum wage means $850 tax savings, along with rolling back the minimum wage increase which begs the question:

- Isn't this more government vote buying ?
- Don't conservatives say that the working poor pay "nothing" ?  70$ a month seems like a lot to a poor person, and amounts to basic health care and social assistance insurance.
ending the wage increase actually reduces their net earnings. Being paid more, yet still paying taxes would earn them more in a year.

So congrats Doug. You’ve fooled people into thinking they’ll have more when (1) they’ll have less and (2) the government will also have less revenues,
