392.0. "GST Rebate Cheques" by TRCO01::FINNEY (Keep cool, but do not freeze) Mon Dec 17 1990 17:12

    Also known as the Tory Popularity Bribery Cheques.
    
    Any one at Digital eligible for these ? (doubt it)
    
    Will it work for the Tory party as they so obviously hope ?

    The biggest give away that these are blatant attempts to buy popularity
    lies in the fact that they will be sent out *before* GST takes effect
    (and therefore before anybody pays any), and the hoopla raised about
    getting them out *in time for Christmas*.
    
    How can you give a REBATE on something that hasn't been paid yet ?
    And where does the money come from ?
