Four cents sound cheap --- until you realize it amounts to nearly $7million EVERY DAY for debt service costs

The BC Liberals like to say that only 4 cents of every tax dollar goes to pay debt service costs.  Four cents sound cheap, until you realize it amounts to nearly $7million EVERY DAY, for debt service costs (interest the government pays on roughly $60 billion in debt).

That works out to over one fifth of a BILLION dollars EVERY MONTH ... $204 million.

That lead me to ask the CC4BC (Concerned Citizens for BC) ... also known as Christy Clark for BC ... the following on Twitter:

Earlier 2day I asked @CC4BC what daily interest cost is on #BCLib debt - NO answer. According 2BC Taxpayers Federation its $6.8 Million /DAY

Then I noted with interest this post at 3:07pm, on Saturday, from the Concerned Citizens for BC:

CC4BC ‏@CC4BC

"Change 4 the better?" Bruce Ralston: Deficits Okay in Economic cycle. 1 practical deficit @ a time #newNDP? #bcpoli

Which is why I asked the following at 3:55 p.m. - Feb 23, 2013

@CC4BC Still waiting 4 U 2 answer question on what daily debt service cost R in BC --- easy question to answer. Your silence speaks volumes

@CC4BC Still no reply but 2B expected. Lots of emphy Rah Rah #BCLibs rhetoric from them but no REAL substance/ answers 2 genuine questions

Needless to say, and with no surprise, the entire weekend passed by with no response.  And still Tuesday morning there has been NO answer to the question asked.

What a load of horse manure!

Jim Shepard states, "We hope our efforts will help you to make a clear, informed, and confident decision for responsible free enterprise come May."
He of course is the head of the "Concerned Citizens For BC". 

Make no mistake ... this is a well heeled, and well funded, business group that supports and backs the BC Liberal Party 100%.  There is NOTHING independent about this group.

They say ... "What we want is simple. We want a government that will continue to be fiscally responsible with our tax dollars. We want a continued efficient and responsive delivery of services such as health and education, and we want politicians and their policy-makers to continue to treat us like the valuable customers we are."

The trouble is, this is NOT what we have received from the BC Liberal government in the past several years.

Why then do these people want us to vote for the BC Liberal Party?  Well that's a question you will have to think about, and then decide for yourself what the answer might be.

Here's something else Jim Shepard's Concerned Citizens for BC has to say:
"While the NDP have enjoyed support from the unions and media outlets, there’s not been any counter-balance supporting people like us who wish to see the continued success of our responsible free enterprise form of government."

What a load of horse manure!

In large part the people in this group (CC4BC) are the same individuals, and businesses, that have provided funding and donations to the BC Liberal Party. 

Therein lies the whole problem ... Big Business supports the BC Liberals ... Big Labour supports the NDP.  So who then supports the everyday people of BC?  We're the ones just trying to work or find a job, get educated, raise a family, and enjoy a bit of life and the beauty around us that BC offers.

The Concerned Citizens for BC, who in reality are acting totally on behalf of the BC Liberal Party, even want us to donate to them.

BOTH the BC Liberals and the BC NDP equal big government, big deficits, and even bigger debt.  The choice I hope you will look at instead, is the common sense platform being offered by the BC Conservative party.
