Politicians like to think the voters will forget and it’s a long time until the next election, but this time, the memory may go deeper.  People are still talking about the salaries people get in high provincial positions, and the huge expense accounts we, the taxpayer cover.  There is still lots of talk about the big money question that saw two health care higher-ups leave earlier this month.  At the other end of the scale, I hear about people who work in medical care, making under $20 an hour.  They save lives, they get spit on, they get abused, and they’re on call 24/7.  Then, they hear about someone at the public trough, spending more on one dinner than they make in a week.  I like the idea from the Taxpayers Federation.  All expense claims should be posted on-line.  We’re told they will be.  It’ll be interesting to see what gets approved.  Maybe instead of the thousand dollar dinner, they could eat for $20 each like the rest of us.  That’s what voters are talking about right now.  Will we forgive by the next election?  It may depend on whether we’re paying for a Big Mac or a big steak.  Let me know what you think.
