Ridiculous for sure!

The rebate will probably pay our gas for two months and we can afford to pay for gas. Give the money to the people who need it. From Linda's blog: “This rebate is going to help a lot of people in this province,” said Mike Farnworth, Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General. “This is another opportunity to put money back in the pockets of the hardworking people who make this province a great place to live.” The announcement today from our beloved Premier is an insult to everyone who drives in British Columbia. He announced every driver will get a one time rebate of $110.00 to compensate for the high price of gasoline. We pay the highest gas prices in North America. $0.73 cents of each litre of gas is tax and our government is increasing the gas tax on April 1st. So they figure if they give us each $110 that will help. To make it even more absurd, people with electric cars get this big $110 rebate! I have never paid more than $100 for gas because I never let my car go below half a tank. I'm sure it would be $200 for a fill! I drive an SUV gas guzzler and I can afford gas. What about the working people who drive to work every day? This said it will help them put money back in their pockets? WHAT!!!! I doubt $110 would fill a compact car. Why don't they reduce the gas tax so the people with a long commute would benefit most? Who was genius thought this rebate would help offset our huge gas prices and make us forget we are getting yet another tax increase in a week? RIDICULOUS
