Dear editor,I see the signs that say Vote Yes — extinguish the HST and it sounds good, feels good — that we can vote and get rid of a tax.But of course that is not the truth. We'll only be replacing the tax. The signs should read Vote Yes — give us back the old taxes, because we want to pay more!It seems to me the Yes side is emotional and vengeful, more of a backlash against the Liberals as opposed to thoughtful decision-making.The No side is better informed and educated.Learn more by visiting www.HST inBC.ca. Read the Independent Panel Report published May 4. It is free of bias.We will be taxed. Don't let party politics dictate a poor choice.Please, do the homework before you vote.Jay Oddleifson,Courtenay
