• Have any of you checked to see how much our own taxes have risen in the same amount of time? I bet we could start a f***ing revolution if we found out the real answer.

  • We would have had a revolution back in 1970 if people knew about Corporate Greed's gold heist.

    • It appears we have a raw sewage leak in the form of CrowleyTurd...again same SHIT different day.

  • I'm guessing our rise is worse because we have progressed leftward at a much faster pace. Canada used to be to the left of us, now they are to the right of us.

• Isn't their national anthem "Uh-oh Canada"?

  • Personally, I prefer the Star Spangled Banner (and Sam Adams Boston Lager).

  • Or "OH NO Canada!"

• I think they are getting screwed too eh?

• It's probably even more in the US since Corporate Greed stole our gold.

  • TD......MO

    • ^

  • Corporate greed '' almost '' balances out liberal political greed

  • Wow! A real Low Information Voter. Good for you.

• And the frog STILL doesn't know the water's boiling.

  • That's because there are lots of Frogs (French) in Canada.

• Think of the opportunity cost, seriously. Once again, I recommend everyone, who hasn't already, read Bastiat's "The Law". Written over 150 years ago as a direct rebuttal to Karl Marx and the Manifesto. Applies perfectly to this story and everywhere else where there is a provider and recipient class arrangement.

  • *going to Amazon to download it* Thanks for the recommendation.

    • Heading to your neck of the woods, Kimmy! Flight delayed of course but still heading there anyway.

      • Have fun!

  • For anyone with a Kindle, it's available for free. And yes, it's a great read, along with everything else he wrote. You'd swear he had a time machine and had come to this point in time to see what damage Marxism would do.

    • And if you don't have a Kindle, you can download Kindle For PC for free at Amazon, and still get Bastiat’s “The Law” for free!

    • I've said to a couple of my friends that if I could erase 4 people from history, it would be Marx, Lenin, Engels, and Trotsky. Hitler himself was a small fry compared to the misery and death caused by the ideas of those four men. What annoys me about Marx the most is that he wasn't stupid, he was simply an evil shit-bag who knew nothing at all about economics, and human nature.

      • I'd like to add 2 to that list, Obama and Crowley.

• And people say how great socialist medicine is up there is that country. Guess who's paying for it? Those that got shafted a 1,787%!

  • That's exactly what I was going to say. Just wait until you guys start paying for Obamacare. Then you too will have the privilege of watching your taxes go through the roof while experiencing all the "benefits" of rationed health care. And that, my friends, is why Canadians drink so much! Well, that and the whole frozen-wasteland thing....

    • "whole frozen-wasteland thing…" Ever heard of Minnesotans for Global Warming? Here's one of their parodies from 3 or 4 years ago, the Who's Teenage Wasteland.

      It's a little tedious at the beginning but stick with it.

    • I heard their summer last year was wonderful. It fell on a weekend.

      • No, silly. That was THIS year!

        • Poor Barb, one of my customers in Ontario was telling me about that!

• Sadly most are going along afraid to stand up or speak out. Those of us who dare to speak up and out are called racist, cold hearted bastards, non caring.

  I enjoy asking liberals that want higher taxes if they take their full deductions when they file their taxes. Every last one flat out says Yes, why should I not. Trap sat and sprank. Point out if they are for higher taxes they should not be taking those deductions. Oh the names begin then. Lol. I tell all that I'm not a republican. I'm a constitutionalist. If its not in the US Constitution we have no business doing it.

• Nice to know Americans are not the only ones getting shafted.
  But it still begs the question, what are they, like us, going to do about it?
