Again, national minimum living wage with national jobs strategy. First raise corporate taxation and get rid of costly tax loopholes that benefit corps and shareholders and work against citizens. Mulcairs trial balloon on the economy front -- if that is what his proposal for a federal minimum wage is -- leads him inexorably to a package of economic policies that can only be implemented by gradually increasing the governments share of GDP back towards 20 per cent and higher.
