I think this is the main lesson of the 2024 US election

Another dem voting friend “when a male tampon is considered part of health care it’s time for change” end quote I’ve had one once I guess, blew a woofer valve and had to have some renovation where the sun don’t shine not something I’d wear monthly

And yet the U.S. continues to improve GDP per capita, while in Canada the opposite is true. I think Chuck2 you need to worry more about what is going on in Canada. Read the article below.

GDP is a broad measure that does not account for how income and GDP growth is distributed.

It can go up with most of the benefits going to the wealthy and not to the working class who can't afford to send their kids to college.

That is exactly the point Robert Reich makes that the wealthy have benefited but the working class has not.

But of course Trump knows a lot about being working class with daddy's money!

And you guys keep falling for his BS every time! LOL

Donald Trump is 78 years old, he ran out of daddy’s money years ago.

I wonder if Chuckroach still has some of daddy’s money?

Spoken like a true communist. At least us Canadians are all equally impoverished.

[chuckChuck]

Your lame stock answer is to call everyone a communist! Or a pedophile? Huh?

And you probably think Trump is going to make the working class rich!

Wanting working people to get a bigger share of the wealth through higher wages is not communism unless you are an uninformed pretend libertarian from Alberta! LOL

[AlbertaFarmer5]

Your lame stock answer is to call everyone a communist!

No, not everyone. Only those who publicly, proudly, and unapologetically espouse communist talking points.

Chuck2 did you read the article from the Financial Post which I highlighted earlier on this thread? It quotes Professor Trevor Tombe in relation to gdp per capita, do you think he is just falling for Trump’s BS?

[Hamloc]

Chuck2, here is another Financial Post article from today on how many in Canada feel owning a house now is considered a luxury. Spin this one from your socialist viewpoint!!

[chuckChuck]

So all union members including several spouses of the Agrisilly regulars are communists too! LOL

You are nut bar A5.

How is the fund raising going to get the Coutts crazies out of jail?

It's going to be on the Fifth Estate this weekend? An in depth look at the Coutts conspiracy theorists turned criminals.

Will we see you in the crowd shots?

How will we know its you! Do you have an anti communist climate change denier hat you wear? Or one that says Make Alberta Great again?

[TSIPP]

Wow, a propaganda article from the paid off CBC funded by the government, I’m sure this will be a real eye opener….

[chuckChuck]

Falling GDP is indeed a worry. Especially as the oil industry shrinks in importance.
The Petro loonie is no more even though we are producing record amounts of oil.

And as we have discussed all factor productivity in the oil industry is low and a laggard compared to other industries in Canada.

Maybe we should be planning for 2100 when Harper said we won't be burning fossil fuels as an energy source? Naw lets put all our eggs in one basket and milk it for all its worth and let the grand kids figure out what to do!

And Trevor Tombe at the U of C is an excellent economist who has some great work on public policy and equalization.

[AlbertaFarmer5]

Chuck, you are attempting to deflect again.

[chuckChuck]

You say I am deflecting again? Is that because you don't have a good answer A5!
