General Politics Discussion

Pierre Poilievre is an idiot. He has no plan other than the tired conservative obsession that things would be better if we could all stop paying taxes.

Why would he disclose his election platform when an election has not yet been called?

Yes, typically things are always better when the government's hands aren't in your pocket - always reminded of the great Thomas Sowell quote - "What exactly is your 'fair share' of what 'someone else' has worked for?"

My goodness have we become a welfare state...

“We have become a welfare state” 

Or, and stay with me here, in as much as “welfare state” means anything, it means we have a strong social safety net, and we have had that for decades and it has been decaying for years. 

But that’s only the reality, nothing to do with the vibes that everyone makes their decisions based on. 

Honestly it’s exhausting dealing with vibes that are so detached from reality.
