Expect cuts everywhere to increase military budget
Elbows.. down?
Elbows confused.
It's funny how everyone wants to complain about cuts to this and that, yet they offer up zero solutions as to how to acquire the funds to support the programs receiving cuts.
Our country is going through a tumultuous time in industry, and unless we get that up and running efficiently by investing heavily in making Canadian products and finding new international buyers, there won't be any money to spend on any social programs in the future either. According to Maslow's hierarchy of needs, those of security and sustenance and more important than the need for community. I know my answer sucks, but stable pyramids are built from the ground up and not the top down.
This is a long transition that, hopefully, in several years, will see us self sufficient and prosperous, and able to fully fund the needs of all Canadians. Until then, every community, every one, will feel the sting of financial hardship. The sooner we get up and running, the shorter the pain of the sting.
yet they offer up zero solutions as to how to acquire the funds to support the programs receiving cuts.
TAX THE RICH HOLY FUCK
"but if we do that, oh gosh, oh geeze! the mining companies and oil companies will leave! big business will abandon us!"
so are they going to take the mines, oil sands, and consumers with them? or?
lmao. we've always held the power. our politicians are just too weak and lack integrity on the behalf of the people they are supposed to represent.
they represent the economy of the wealthy, thats literally it. they are just stacking gold until the time comes to fuck off to the north and live in their isolated bunkers so they can age out without suffering the worst of the climate collapse.
we will find them. they wont be able to hide forever.
