Walking Barefoot

THE BAREFOOT WOMAN
A Commentary on the priority given Canadian Victims
of the defective Taxable Benefits Regulations.

There is an old adage that says:- “The only barefoot woman in town is the shoemaker’s wife.”

How do you imagine such a saying came into practice?

Could it be because it is true in many cases?

In the days of the village blacksmith -- and the town cobbler -- do you suppose the cobbler was usually so busy making shoes for other people that his own wife went barefoot?

Or could it be the cobbler held his wife in such low esteem that he wouldn’t bother to make shoes for her?

And do you suppose this state of affairs was so common that the saying became analogous to any circumstance where those persons --most closely associated with those occupied in providing a service to the needs of others – were the most neglected?

Apparently YES – that sounds fairly logical.

For example the following are typical examples of today’s barefoot woman:-

The Electricians wife must usually find and replace the blown fuse, or reset the tripped circuit breaker, herself.

The grocery store manager’s wife must frequently do her own shopping and carry the groceries home herself.

The plumber’s wife usually must use the spray-can of “Liquid Plumber” herself to unplug the Kitchen sink drain.

Then it should come as no surprise that any neglect and/or abuse of Canadian Taxpayers is due to neglect by our own government. Who else would levy “Income Taxes” on money that never was -- and never will be -- received by the taxpayer.

Read the prior article:- “JUSTICE DELAYED” -- for details of this problem.

I wonder if the cobbler’s wife merely accepted that unfair situation back in those days?

Do you suppose she ask for equal treatment and her appeal(s) for shoes -- just fell on deaf ears? Like the today’s Taxable Benefits victims appeals to our current government for justice?

Would today’s woman -- like today’s voting public -- just ignore the situation and put up with this abuse? NOT VERY LIKELY.

Canadian voters – you have the power to make our politicians look after our own tax victims. Kindly recognize your power -- as a voter and use it effectively.

Adopt -- and announce a policy – “NO COMMITMENT TO CORRECT THE DEFECTIVE “Taxable Benefit” legislation – translates into:- “NO VOTE”.
