The government always has to justify taxation, but this argument is simply the Rob Ford cut the gravy and stop the waste before we can do anything else argument. I appreciate efficiency and economy in government as much as the next person, but a narrow focus on that is obfuscation ... continual improvement isn't the same as waiting until self-appointed guardians of the public purse determine all waste and mismanagement has been purged from the system.

The plan will be DOA if the public decides it's not worth the cost and is willing to continue to sit in traffic for the foreseeable future ... polling data suggests they aren't. We just haven't arrived at consensus on how to pay the plan yet. We only in the middle innings of the ball game.
