Yeah, and I understand that. But allowing edits indefinitely also allows people to retract their words later on if a controversy starts. That can make for a confusing thread of conversation for anyone arriving late, when all they can see is the sanitized post and not what initially sparked a disagreement.

No, I did not see that but if you look across the nation as a whole, you will find many jurisdictions that have done things that cannot be explained to limit the voices of the people. On both sides of the political divide. Does not make any of it right.

They deferred it for two years. "Tabled" would mean it could be brought back up at any time. "Deferred" means it's off the table for two years. If brought back in the future it will certainly be under different terms.

The RIP approach is unlikely since it costs money up front, only potentially saving money in the long term, but I agree with the rest of your post, but would add that some use of PF earnings will be needed because decreasing oil credits and instituting income tax won't reach the $4 billion more revenue needed.
