Investment packages sold around the globe by now bankrupt US banks.,
because of poor US policies.
This is not something the international community will forget too soon.
I'm going to tell you something that is so old it is usually said in
Latin:
CAVEAT EMPTOR!
Canada is not a socialist country.
Sez liberals and liberal canucks......
Canadians got screwed because of the US economy? lol!
You are in no position to laugh about anybody, considering the state of
your economy.
Only the whiners are doing badly because they can't get what they want
right now. My finances have never been better.
Oh, none of our banks will go bankrupt,
REALLY? We'll see.....
You have yet to post something of substance...
Here's some substance for you.
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect
Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the
common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings
of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish
this Constitution for the United States of America.
Note it does not say "provide the general welfare".
|
That means the government can cut off your military pension at
anytime, since it is under no obligation to provide for you.

Perhaps you are tranquil while others go hungry or die from lack of medical
help.

Providing welfare is something a government does. Most government do far |
more than the USA. There are a huge number of programs that only a

protection and basic research among them. The spin-offs from NASA alone have
benefitted every one of us to a large degree. From more efficent plows based
on government developed analysis, to those little tiny ball bearings in your
dentists drills that allow high speed, the gevernment has provided welfare.
In the 60's conservatives (E.G. Barry Goldwater and even Nixon) were
concerned about providing welfare directly to people. A negative income tax
was proposed so everyone would have a minimum livable income. Such a plan
would have saved billions in the overhead imposed by the current welfare
system.
Donne said "No man is an island" and he was right. The physical condition of
men at the start of WWII showed what happens to a nation that did not take
care of it's own. |

Perhaps.
But you'll never know.
And I'm not concerned about your judgments of me.
I'm not totally against welfare but it should not be the governments
job to fund people that won't work.
You must be a socialist.

Perhaps but what government has the job of finding people who will not work? |
I'm willing to bet that,
1. You don't know how to get on welfare in the state of California and
2. That you can't tell me the difference between welfare and parity. |
