$300,000.00 agri- instability welfare to the rich cheques.

You better keep an eye out for that parsley farmaholic, she is chem free, subsidy free, a freelance writer, just maybe the sex would be priceless also!
lol!

Btw, I have personal friends, first hand, who
receive over a million dollars from Stability. I
don't resent them. I'm not jealous of them.

But nor domi think Canada can afford to
subsidize any industry, because world economics
are too precarious and they became that way b/c
of the lack of self-disciple expected to be freely
practiced by each of us iliving in a free society

Do we, as Canadians, actually possess the
mental and social ability, let alone exercise the
expectancy responsibility, to maintain a free and
democratic nation?

That is the mother question of all questions.

We can only answer that question by looking
within. Pars

Riders: I realize I am likely out of my league here but what the heck I have an opinion. Debate is good.
Life is too short to take seriously, no one gets out alive!

[riders2010]

That's for sure!

pgluca - you were doing pretty good until you finished with the "single mothers" part. (Rolling eyes emoticon here)

Pars, you brought an old song to mind with your "something for nothing" remark - kinda fits?

Every part of our society is addicted to the socialism drug and farmers are as hooked as anyone.

[parsley]

No you are not in the least out of your league.
When you can look outward, from other
perspectives other than your own farm, you are
just coming into your own, &'become fiscally,
politically, and socially very interesting.

Would college tuitions be lower or higher with the
intro of the giant student lone program?

Would vet,lawyer or dentist costs be higher or
lower with the colleges taking only a small select
few?

The examples are endless.

[parsley]

Cotton your lobe explores economic scenarios
like Carl Sagan's eye explores the universe.
LOL. Pars

[parsley]

pgluca, that was so damn good you made me
skip! Hah.

burnt, I hadn't listed to Dire Straits for years! I
started a thread for songs; pgluca's fault! Pars

[cottonpicken]

Lol,had to google that guy,did not recognize him.

The economic stuff i was looking at today was the tier
1 leverage ratios,impaired loans/tier 1,impaired
loans/total assets of canadian banks.

And guessing on their off balance sheet derivatives
exposure.



In between quad rides in the snow with kids.

The stuff i posted here was simple logic.

The only question in my head right now is are they
solvent?

[sumdumguy]

Cotton, what did you find out about Cdn bank
leverage exposure? Spit it out.

[sumdumguy]

We should be able to vote these programs out,
just like we vote politicians out.
