Looks like Toronto wants to levy its own sales tax.  I think this is on top of the 13% we already pay.  Wow</description>

		<description>Grass is always greener...

If it is so easy... quit what ever job it is you are doing and become a REALTOR. The barriers to getting in are minimal. Lasting 1, 2, 5, 10 or 20 years... now THAT takes a little more doing.

Gotta tell ya there are many a day that a 9 to 5 $25.00 an hour job looks pretty damn good to me. Especially in this failing economy and with all the B.S. we have to put up with from people who haven&#039;t a clue what they are talking about. Hell I might even accept $15.00 an hour for freedom like that. With some benefits like medical, dental, retirement plan, paid holidays, company car I might take as low as minimum wage. Who am I kidding... I&#039;d work for FREE under those conditions!</description>

		<description>Re 156 and others


There is value in what RE sales people  offer.  The industy would not exist if they were not helpful in an important way.

Yes the internet is changing their industry but what is with the &quot;pitch fork and burning torches&quot; attitude against sales people?

If you do not work for the government your job is 100  percent dependent on the   efforts of sales people.</description>
