This is a very scary practice that is becoming all too popular in Canadian politics. It is called buying votes using other peoples money that is taken from the successful people in our society. This thrives on the opinion that nobody should be allowed to have any more than me and if they do take the extra from them and divided it among the rest of us. Unfortunately this kills motivation for people to take risks - since your not allowed to have more than me. It has clearly been shown that neither communism nor extreme socialism have succeeded in other societies and they won't work for Canada. England's Thatcher hit the nail on the head when she stated that the problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other peoples money.
