Better Way For Alberta.



What is the better way for Alberta?

Alberta has some trouble in it's economy, but the government founded a better way to resolve this problem.
They had some ideas of how to make more money and this is what they came with: Replace the flat tax with a progressive income tax, this helps will help to make $1.5 and $2 billions every year for education and health care.
Increasing taxes on corporate profits
corporations in Alberta will have to pay 10% of taxes  every year, and corporate profits will pay 15%
sot his will help to make 2 to 3 billions of dollars each year. This will help to pay for public services and public infrastructure.
Increasing oil royalties.
This is really helpful because big industries of oil are paying a small percent of money to the government, but with this they are going to pay more money and the taxes are going to increase for them.
Health care premiums
The government has thought they should pay the healthcare for everyone.
Sale taxes
This will helps to pay public services, that's why they are generated this by progressive tax on income and corporate profits.
I think that with all of this, Alberta will totally be a better place to live.

What is the scapegoats?
This is some information that i founded in Heather's blog.
Scapegoats are a person or group made to bear the blame from others or to suffer in their place. Prentice often blames the OPEC (OPEC is a cartel that aims to manage the supply of oil in an effort to set the price of oil on the world market, in order to avoid fluctuations that might affect the economies of both producing and purchasing countries.)for the falling oil prices. While OPEC's are an easy scapegoat many people know.
   The real culprit is the Alberta Government they have consistently lowered the taxes and now we have less money. With little money the government has to cut funding and then there are less schools and less hospitals.  The government should change the tax system to a progressive tax instead of a flat tax. Because then the rich would have to pay more taxes which means the government would have more money.
