Funny how I expected to be pretty productive on this blog but it just fell off my radar. OK I've really been kinda zen over the past while and haven't really been too annoyed by the world around me. I thought about a post about the Vancouver riots and how the sports broadcaster on CKNW Sports Talk was a complete pussy and was totally wrong about 90% of everything that came out his mouth. Boy was that a bunch of shite but I emailed said my peace and never got here. That's happened a few times where I've vented on Facebook or Twitter and forgot about coming here for an in-depth run.
I am going on a trip so I might have some good stuff to bitch about soon. Then again some stupid Muslims might fuck something up or the moron's next-door (USA) could stick their heads even further up their asses who knows. But I sign off to get the rest of brunch finished for my wife and her family to celebrate her birthday. Let's see how that goes sometimes they are good fodder for my asshole canon. But since it's something nice for my wife I will bite my tongue and hold my lips closed for her sake. Yeah I can do it I know what your thinking!

2011 The Year I'm Hoping Will See Some Political Balance
I am hopeful that this year we will see some real politics take place instead of big corporations forcing all levels of government to cower to their wants and needs. BP should be held accountable for their disaster for one, another would be the RIAA and MPAA getting their asses handed to them by our Canadian courts making them stop this suing crap. It's ridiculous because they don't make any money all they do is spend money to chase money that never existed. I would love to see a new BC leader who's not afraid to say no to special interest groups and the so called First Nations. Let that crap be stopped and no more welfare for just being a drunken indian. I'd also like to see the entire planet stand up to the political and disturbing trend of allowing Muslim's change our laws to support their religious ideals. Islam is by far the biggest threat the world is facing and not standing up and stopping that will be a mistake that might destroy the world.
I'd love to see corporations actually pay their taxes and the falsely inflated price of gas come crashing back to reality. It would be nice if some left of centre people like Al Frankin, Bill Mahr and Richard Dawkins all ran for political positions and won. I'd love to see people with common sense and intelligence have a chance to run things for awhile. The decommission of churches and a law preventing any new places of worship be built in Canada to start would also be another dream of mine. There is no reason any longer for that rubbish to be taught to the world. We all know even the devout that their religions are corrupt and full of liars, thieves and criminals. A world-wide stomping out of charity drives is another thing I'd love to see as that is an industry that barely ever pays off for the intended. Those major organizations collect money by the truck loads but somehow it never gets out to where it is needed anywhere close to the amounts collected in dollars.
I know that much of this will never happen because America is too obsessed with capitalism to start a trend, Canada is too afraid, England is broke and an Islamic state now, Ireland is broke as well, France is lost in race protests and well Sweden and Australia somehow stand poised to achieve almost all the things I'd like to see change or happen. Funny how those two countries seem to be getting it right more often than they do wrong right now. Even Australia with their somewhat crazy right wing Christian leader is doing more the right things. I say go for it Australia and Sweden and the others who can see the light of day show the rest of the world how to get it done. Russia with all their troubles can lead the way against the copyright wars and China, Taiwan, Vietnam, Thailand also strong against the US's attempts to control the internet. I applaud them loudly for their strength to stand up to the playground bully which has always been the United States Of (We Have Our Heads Up Our Asses) America.

Affirmative Action Is A Joke
Now the real question is this ‘who would you trust most to save your life 
a racial minority that might only have their job as a surgeon in the hospital because they were black or some other race other than Asian or Caucasian, who you can be damn sure earned their position by achievement?’ Obviously you will choose the Caucasian surgeon or the Asian surgeon because both would have done all the work to get the job.
In the US and Canada we are forced to hire a certain amount of racial minorities to round out our companies and in turn are forced to hire second rate employees because we might not have the proper amount of tokens to make the small interest groups happy. Now I don't care about race and honestly I think folks of all races are able to perform up to standard and no one race is greater than the other. But if I was to have a large office or staff and I had to choose between a Caucasian guy who was obviously the best candidate or an East Indian person who was almost as good I'd choose the Caucasian guy. But I would probably choose the person who fit the office on a social level best as well. So if I had cool guy show up who wasn't the best at the specific job but would be a better team player and fit in with my current staff I'd choose them no matter their race.
If some Caucasian showed up dressed like a hippie with dreads I wouldn't hire him/her no way no how. I think that people who dress like that wouldn’t fit in to my personal company. I don't like the lifestyle that type of dress signifies and so, I'd hire a completely different person. I judge everyone by how they dress and act as everyone will judge me the same way or discount me for being overweight. Nobody wants to hire a fat guy or girl to work for them but affirmative action doesn't dictate that you have to hire a Jew, Fat Chick, Bald Guy, Blind Girl, Disabled Person or an alcoholic. But it does tell me I have to hire a Black, Indian, East Indian, Asian and so forth. I find that ridiculous and have stated why previously.
Getting a job based on the colour of your skin signifies that you’re not good enough to have earned the job which puts an unfair judgment onto all minorities which are really not minorities any longer. Affirmative action produces no concrete benefits for minority students in universities or colleges and actually has several harmful effects, according to a new report by the Cato Institute. "Recent research shows that college admissions preferences do not offer even the practical benefits claimed by their supporters," writes Marie Gryphon, a lawyer and policy analyst with the Cato Institute's Center for Educational Freedom.
Political scientist Jay Green found that only 20 percent of African-American students and 16 percent of Hispanics leave high school with the minimum credentials. "Minority underrepresentation in college is caused by public schools' failure to prepare minority students," writes Gryphon. "It is a failure that affirmative action does not remedy." Preferences also do not increase the earning power of students who attend more selective schools as a result of affirmative action. Recent research shows that when equally prepared students are compared, those attending less selective schools make as much money as those from more selective schools.
Of course racial quotas hurt minorities. Anytime you lower the bar and standards for a certain group of individuals, you’re not doing them a favor. It’s also insulting to assume that the only way the group is going to succeed is if you establish a different and less difficult set of rules just for them. In the end; What affirmative action means to me, is when I see a minority professional person, I always wonder are they really best qualified for their job, or were they moved to the head of the line, over more qualified people, based solely on the fact that they are not Caucasian. If I need major surgery, I want the best qualified doctor available, not the one that makes everyone giddy with political correctness.

8 The Mormon Proposition
I just watched the film 8 The Mormon Proposition and even though I am not an American and thank goodness of that I am disturbed at how easily the church was able to extort money from their faithful and buy a political process. This film is about same sex marriage in California and how the LDS church paid illegally to promote a political action which is criminal in the state. I am very bothered by how religious groups tell their followers lies constantly and make the people believe they are absolute truths. Anyone with a brain that works knows that the bible is hooey. Sure the book might have some truth in its stories but c'mon no woman gets pregnant without sexual contact or having male semen inserted into their vagina. Never has anyone been able to part a bowl of water let alone a sea and the ridiculous supernatural ideal that a person dead and buried rose up and lived again.
Three of the major stories are all supernatural at heart fables told by illiterates too many years ago to really matter. Being gay is not a sickness and it isn't curable and shouldn't be taught that it is. I am not gay I do not promote homosexual propaganda and I have a huge problem with the insatiable need to sell homosexual as a product. I also will not support any cause that would hurt a gay person and treat them unfairly. Some of the greatest people in history were most likely homosexual. Pirates used to bring young men along on their ships sit them on greased up poles and use them for sex. Now were all sailors gay probably not but that was a norm at one time.
Mormon's torture and brainwash in a Hitler type way anyone who is considered sick with gayness. They do this in disguise of a cure for homosexuality and deny it all. We know that they continue to use these tactics but keep it underground. Faithful people who tell you how wonderful and right Jesus is and God is have no problem kicking you to the curb if you question the leader of their cult. I say this all the time and I am sure I offend my friends and family but all organized religions are cults. Maybe they are not Satanic cults or Military cults but they are still cults. They want you to blindly believe in whatever they tell you.
The Mormon's have powerful leaders called prophets that supposedly are spoken to by God. Now how dumb are you people out there to actually fall for that crap? If God existed she would be fucking angry with how she's been made out to be a man first of all. Why would I consider God to be a woman you might ask well I'm a man and I know we couldn't come up with the confusing bullshit that makes up a woman's thought pattern. Men are straight forward and fairly uncomplicated and wouldn't make their counterpart smarter, more mature and complex than himself so...your God would be a woman dumbass.
The church of all major religions have become taken over by crazy power hungry people. As we all know absolute power corrupts absolutely and this has come true with all religious leaders. Religion is a powerful control tool and it is used by the elite to control the masses for many years. I'm am not religious and I will never accept the asinine stories that are read from the big black book of death. You can believe in your fantasy land in the sky and the one under the ground I'm ok with that but when you use it to control me I will always stand up against you. I am not a believer nor a hypocrite and I don't have to accept anyone's religious belief's just because you allow yourself to be a follower doesn't mean I can't speak out against it.
I love how people always tip-toe around the devout when they are speaking about religion or doing something based in religion so you don't offend them. They can outwardly speak about church and groups and their assumptions of reality but we are not allowed to tell them to shut up or tell them its stupid. If I was to start talking about anything against their faith I'm instantly labeled in a negative manner. Rude, dumb, uneducated and so forth for not believing but they can believe in all these supernatural things like, one being created the entire planet and solar system. Not possible but if you have faith and just accept whatever your being told without malice well then your good. I will admit religion is great fodder for making Sci-Fi TV shows and movies and its great for making horror films and the like. As an entertainment media it does have a lot of value but as a life long path it costs way to much money.
Watch the movie and see for yourself and this isn't just a one off incident it is what religious organizations do everyday. They promote their word and what each specific leaders agenda is at the time. All church's are exactly the same in the end no matter how they get you there the end is control and money. I would like to see all religions and church's pay taxes on their income as they are corporations looking for a profit as much as Wal-Mart and Cost-Co. So to the Mormon church and their stupid faithful I'd like say "FUCK YOU". They are almost as dirty and greasy as the Evangelists are in America and they are as disgusting as all Muslims.

Homeless Gets More & Working Poor Get Anally Rapped One More Time
So our stupid government has dedicated two hundred & fifty million dollars to homeless housing in BC. That's statement is ridiculous lets take twenty percent of this money first and send all the bums on our streets back to their home cities. I don't want to be paying for all the lazy drug addicts from Calgary, Winterpeg, Toronto, Montreal etc that have come here because the weather is better all year round. Next thing I don't believe that supporting these wastes of human space is going to solve anything that has to do with being homeless. You can take a pig out of the pen wash him off but he's still going to roll around in the mud no matter what. Homeless folks are the pigs for those who didn't get it. Yes I'm not your average bleeding heart that wants to fix these people. I'm that guy who would rather put them in a warehouse give them as many drugs as they can do and put them all out their misery.
Drug addicts choose their path into that lifestyle and no matter how horrible your childhood was/is, is no excuse to go down the road of addiction. That is the lazy way out and these people are lazy leeches who suck as much out of the system as possible. When you give a bus ticket to a bum on the street because of some hardship story all your doing is helping them fund their drug addiction. You give them money they keep the game going until they have what they need to get the alcohol or drugs that will keep them happy for the day. You will see one out of a hundred who clean up and get out of that world but that one will be made to look like a fucking superstar for achieving sobriety and rejoining society. Now all the special interest groups can use this face to sell their story to the funding committees around the country and make jobs for themselves. They aren't there to help anyone don't let them fool you councilors love addicts because it pays them a nice salary and keeps them employed. Sure some people do it for the adrenalin rush they're getting from it too. But in the end it is always about money and power.
We have a mayor in Vancouver who thinks if he pulls this crap off that the citizens will vote him back into power. Then the assclown of a Premier will be all over this to try to make himself less covered in shit but again I don't see it actually helping. Why are the scum of society robbing the rest of it from getting the share they have worked hard for? It's not ok with me that these highly visible low life's get so much given to them when people are struggling to put gas in their car to get to their job to earn barely enough money to feed and clothe their children and themselves is really the question. No one wants to ask that question because it would cause such a backlash in the politically correct society we are dying in. If more of these fat cats who have the money and the power would stand up and say no we regular people would have a better chance of being heard instead of ignored for having small world views or being racist or heartless. I'm far from any of those things I believe everyone should be treated fairly and right now that is not even close to happening. It's all about saving face in the media and doing whatever it takes to get the highest ratings in polls or in the radio/tv market.
We are losing our souls to opinions and being force fed the wants of a small minority. The majority would not help these addicts and street people if they could get away without anyone knowing who they were so their livelihood wouldn't be hurt or be personally ruined. The media continues to run their mouths about how society needs to protect this small group of deadbeats and in the realm of things the homeless population is small. Now I want to make one thing clear I'm not against helping a person who wants to clean up and help themselves. I've experienced addiction to drugs in the fact that family members and a couple of friends have struggled with alcohol and substances. My stepfather was an alcoholic for the majority of my youth and by the time my mother left he was still working and living in society. A few years later after a stint with drugs he sobered up and stayed that way for over thirty years. So the excuses I hear all the time are worthless drivel to me and should be to you. Instead of handing a homeless vagrant money to further their addictions say no don't give to any charity that allows these rejects to continue easily in their lazy life choice. It's hard work to be a contribiting member of society so why are we allowing our governments at any level spend money to build housing for people who do not deserve it?
You have the power to say no by voting and protesting these wasteful spending sprees. There is not one reason you can give me that will convince me, a person who chose to rebel against societies norms become a drug addict and criminal should get a nice place to live over a person who struggles to work a low paying job and live in this province that over charges for rental units. It's always the same argument and until the majority of voters stop allowing this ridiculous spending on frivolous media attention grabbing darlings like homelessness it will never change.

Are You Fucking Kidding?
Way to go Government of Canada! 400 Million to upgrade indian reservation houses and I'm sure once they destroy them again or piss away the cash Ottawa will shell out more cash. When is enough going to be enough? It's time for everyone to stop playing the victim and pull their heads out from their asses. Millions of dollars they throw away on crap like pay raises, supporting stupid countries like Haiti, enormous pensions for the tools they fire, putting roofs on private corporations buildings all while stealing from education, health care, infrastructure that actually matters and privatizing the money making business like Hydro, Telecommunications, Oil extraction, Gas Companies (Petro Canada anyone)....Stop voting for the fat cats and only vote for independants and the like minded candiates and watch as the Liberals, Conservatives and NDP crumble and are forced into becoming what they should have always been in the first place.
Aa $2.1 million package announced by Nanaimo-Alberni MP James Lunney on Thursday morning, for retrofits to reserve housing for 17 Vancouver Island First Nations. The money came through the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, as part of the national Economic Action Plan. Where is the same action plan to help the working poor subsidize the exuberant rental properties in this province? How come the govt has millions to hand out the natives but has no money to support education in this province? How come they have millions of dollars to put a fucking roof on BC place but have no money for health care? How come they can spend millions of dollars on the shitty olympics but can't afford to fix all the fucking roads in the small towns of BC? I can answer that because you stupid fucking morons vote in the most dishonest motherfucker to ever head a political party. Every single time Campbell gets voted back into power he screws us all over and then just before the election he softens up just enough to suck you all back into his web and you dumb assclowns believe his bullshit and lies re-electing him over and over and over again.
Have you missed the last few years and how many times the BC Liberals have run rough shot over your lively hood stealing your future and kids future from them to make himself richer by making his friends richer? He stole jobs from families when he paid off the union leader so he would screw his own union over with the hospital strike. He's done the same with nurses and doctors to a point where small northern towns can't keep doctors working or hospitals open. Schools can't buy text books or computers or upgrade playgrounds for the children. Teachers pay for most books in their classrooms along with teaching aids and other supplies. Hospitals now buy their food pre-cooked from Ontario and Winnipeg instead of making fresh food from ingredients purchased from their own communities which would grow the local economies but not in this govt regime. I'm just really pissed off that yet again the govt plays into the whole indians are all victims who can't fix their troubles and we as taxpayers of all other races and the natives who also stand alongside the rest of the working Canadians have to continuously throw massive amounts of cash at them without malice. So not only do our tax dollars get spent supporting reserve indians who are usually the bottom feeders of the bottom feeders (and yes maybe that's a little harsh but not even one percent racist so fuck you if your offended) that money creates even more cash because the fucking reservations and bands sell the houses to their own people. Nice fucking deal they get given money to build houses so in actuality the bands get 400 million dollars spend that money building houses improving their land values and then at a profit sell said house. If that's not abuse and corruption then I'm am an American idiot from southern Alabama married to my cousin who's a black woman born to two white parents that are both still virgins that use her as a slave picking cotton while I being white profit from her work as I screw her mother who's 10 years younger than her daughter, my wife.
If that money would have been put to good use and the rest of our tax money was actually used to support Canada instead of foreign shit hole countries and indians this country could actually be a world wide force instead of the useless asshole that it is becoming each day the sun rises. Sweden is looking better and better all the time not to mention Australia is also looking up as well at least those countries invest in themselves properly. My soapbox is officially vacant now but don't you dare try standing on it because unlike the government I have no qualms about kicking your fucking ass off it as its mine and I don't care about your opinions if they differ from the only one that matters MINE!

If that money would have been put to good use and the rest of our tax money was actually used to support Canada instead of foreign shit hole countries and indians this country could actually be a world wide force instead of the useless asshole that it is becoming each day the sun rises. Sweden is looking better and better all the time not to mention Australia is also looking up as well at least those countries invest in themselves properly. My soapbox is officially vacant now but don't you dare try standing on it because unlike the government I have no qualms about kicking your fucking ass off it as its mine and I don't care about your opinions if they differ from the only one that matters MINE!

Foreign Aid & Corporate Welfare
I don't get how there is no money for educational funding and each year school systems of raped and pillaged to save money for the government in power. It's pathetic that a country like Canada refuses to support the young minds in this country but are more than willing to send hundreds of millions of dollars to bailout corporations and waste money by sending corrupt foreign countries foreign aid. Whether the money is spent in military peace keeping missions or straight out cash in case of Haiti there is always more money in the coffers to try to make us look like we care and are important and doing our part to save the poor useless tools of the world. Now don't get me wrong I don't want to see people starving or dying. The Haiti earthquake for example is a natural disaster in a country that is a complete failure. The people there are uneducated for the most part, they are poor but they continue to reproduce at an alarming rate considering their financial situation.
I don't have a problem with people having a family no matter how much they earn but when your devastatingly poor and can't feed yourself why are you procreating and adding to strife? This is my issue and part of the reason I don't believe that sending hundreds of millions of dollars to Haiti will make any difference. Sure a bunch of religious organizations will jump in there but not to help but to spread their cult into the Haitian society. Red Cross will be there for awhile doing their part but in a very short time Haiti will be yesterdays news. North America will have a major influx of un-educated Haitians living as illegal immigrants working underground jobs or in the sex trade and drug trafficking industries. So instead of just doing the right thing and rescuing the survivors and giving some medical attention to the injured we are now going to rebuild their country for them. I ask what the hell does this teach these people? Nothing they can just go right back to screwing like rabbits, spreading disease to one another, building shit shacks because its easy. You will never change this society no matter how much money you throw at them and they will always be a welfare state for the world to have to look after.
I don't want to be the adopted parent of Haiti making sure they have enough money at the expense of my own country. I don't believe those people are better or worse than Canadians I just can't believe the hundreds of millions of dollars worth of aid that is going there and the US, Canada, England, Australia and the rest of the richer countries of the world couldn't give a shit about New Orleans when you compare the reactions. In a civilized country and one of the richest countries in the world the reaction time was awful in New Orleans. In Haiti they had responded almost instantly and the world jumped right in to help. I am appalled and disgusted by this which shows how badly our priorities as a nation are skewed in the wrong direction. Just because Haiti is a poor country everyone feels compelled to help them poor souls. New Orleans is in the US so its not important is how it looks to me. New Orleans is still a mess and its a crime and disease infested wasteland that should be more important to the country of which it sits inside than an island nation that does not.
Foreign aid is also spent protecting places like Afghanastan and Iraq, countries that hate us for just being different than them. They are religious zealots who believe its more important to murder innocent people to further their stupid religious beliefs than to live their own lives. But what does the world do go there and protect them from themselves even though they don't want us to do so. I know that as soon as the military pulls out of those crap countries of the world they will go right back to what they were doing before we interfered. Canada loses military serviceman regularly to a cause that in the end is nothing more than corporate greed. The only reason the US invaded Iraq and Afghanistan was because they couldn't get the pipeline through to further their oil exploits. People can argue all they want about the reasons but America didn't have a natural enemy in the world any longer and they without an enemy can't fund the military. So at this point with a warring Republican president waiting to take office officially the entire terrorist or culture of fear was born. I'm not saying George Bush and his criminals/staff organized 911 but they had the information and they chose to ignore it. Then once that happened poof America has exactly what they needed to quantify massive spending budgets for military machinery.
Dick Cheney was chairman and CEO of the Halliburton Company from 1995 to 2000 which is an oilfield services corporation with operations in more than 70 countries. This is the biggest corporate welfare deal in history considering how the company alongside Bush and Cheney profited from the attacks and the subsequent invasion of Iraq along with Afghanistan. More government money propping up corporations. Now we have the economic crash of 2008/2009 and here comes the government again at the expense of the tax payers. The US gave corporate welfare to automobile companies, insurance companies, lending firms and banks. But did the horrendous living conditions in rural Kentucky or Michigan or the disgusting areas of Los Angeles and those burrows in New York that look like a war had ripped through them get any money invested into them, NO! They are still the exact same as they were but the government is more than willing to continue spending money on helping out the people who caused the economic crash. Canada is exactly the same we've given millions to GM and so forth all of which will never come back to the people who've been robbed by these mismanaged corporations for generations.
Some how Canada deems it more important to protect the rich corporations from paying for their bad business decisions than taking care of the deteriorating education system, medical system and infrastructure that is everywhere across the country. Somehow the crisis in Haiti is also more important than all of the issues we have in our own country as well. The government can find one hundred and thirty million dollars instantly but I didn't see them find fifteen million to fund the arts in British Columbia last year. The BC government is bringing in the HST tax which is just another tax added to already taxes currently in place. We pay sales tax and GST about five times on everything we purchase in this province. When the GST first came into practice it was a hidden tax included in the price of everything at the retail level but what happened was retailers and wholesalers started charging the tax over top of itself which in turn gained them a profit so the prices all went up six percent when the GST came because of everyone having it included in their price but the rouse is that people started to put plus GST on everything shortly after showing the tax after their prices already included the six percent mark up. It was an easy scam and raised the cost by twelve percent on all products it was allowed to be charged against.
Now with all the corporate welfare and foreign aid being handed out we as citizens will pay more taxes to cover the money handed out that never comes back. Corporate welfare is something that isn't new to the economy and you can look at the oil companies and banks over the past fifty years. The Royal Bank of Canada doesn't pay taxes on their profits and have had a deferred tax status hidden away for years. Oil companies have all sorts of subsidies to hide their tax exemption and some pretty creative ones I must say. The best part of this is another major kick in the teeth called Free Trade. Free Trade is not what it was packaged and sold to be the whole thing is so major banks and corporations can move money daily so they don't show a massive profit which would be taxed on paper and in plain sight of us regular folks. Corporate Welfare and Foreign Aid is just another way of the governments of the world to act like mobsters and pirates in a semi legal manner. The period from 1982 and 2006 which spanned the terms of seven prime ministers – the federal government authorized $18.4 billion in grants, contributions, concessional financing and other forms of federal assistance. The biggest beneficiaries were Pratt & Whitney ($1.5 billion), Bombardier ($745 million) and General Motors ($360 million). But the list of recipients included everything from a manufacturer of artificial heart valves to a golf course developer.

The biggest beneficiaries were Pratt & Whitney ($1.5 billion), Bombardier ($745 million) and General Motors ($360 million). But the list of recipients included everything from a manufacturer of artificial heart valves to a golf course developer.
Since the late '90s, when the federal deficit was eliminated, Industry Canada has dispensed an average of $1 billion a year. "These programs are a sinkhole for tax dollars," said John Williamson, the advocacy group's federal director. "They serve neither business nor taxpayers and should be scrapped."The 30-page report – with an 809-page appendix listing all subsidies – is an impressive piece of research. But it has spawned no outrage. In fact, it has barely attracted any attention at all. Nor is it likely to find a political champion.
Stéphane Dion has already indicated that a Liberal government would use both subsidies and tax incentives to move Canada toward a sustainable economy."We have to make the right investments now as a nation to ensure that we all have access to secure, efficient and reasonably priced energy sources in the future, that are environmentally friendly," he told his party and the public during his leadership campaign. As for NDP Leader Jack Layton, whose party once reviled Big Business, he is in favour of using taxpayers' money to change corporate behaviour. He advocates shifting subsidies from oil and gas extraction to renewable energy, for example. He even proposes financial assistance to the auto industry to develop fuel-efficient cars."Environmentally sustainable new industries and new technologies will be the cornerstone of 21st-century job creation," he told party loyalists in Vancouver at a rally.
So as I stated above the new handouts will be all lathered with words like sustainability, renewable, clean, green, environmentally friendly, carbon neutral and so forth to a point of vomit inducing. We are coming out of the global warming fake out and moving full tilt into the ideal of green renewable energy being non polluting and better for the environment. As the truly smart people on this planet already know Global Warming is a FARCE. But there are those beggers and hangers on that will fight for the cause until their dead. If you think Corporate Welfare and Foreign Aid are bad now just wait until all the new changes come to light in the next couple of years. Your going to be paying a few dollars more for everything to cover the Haiti earthquake the BC taxpayers will be paying for the Olympics which is running around 400 million so far and that a whole other aspect of corporate welfare that is stealing from everyone in the country but mostly British Columbians. Just remember your corporate welfare/foreign aid bill is $15,126.00 for every Canadian who filed and paid taxes between 1994 and 2007. You Welfare tab will grow in subsequent years by the time Finanace and Statistics Canada can collect and report all the data. Anyone who thinks a single job is saved or created because a government shifts auto sector jobs from Toyota to General Motors is deluding themselves.
Here’s one last number with which I will try and defy the Bailey aphorism on figures. While every government is responsible for corporate welfare, consider this easy-to-understand comparison: federal red ink. The 13-year bill for corporate welfare is equivalent to about 40 per cent of our $500-billion federal debt. Maybe someday we Canadians will stop following the mistakes of the past and present and truly look at fixing our own yard before bailing out corporations who don't care about the people and spending foreign aid to fix countries that cannot be fixed and won't fix themselves.
