You state that the current COVID19 plans and action of our government somehow favor the big monopolistic organizations tipping the scales in their favor to the point where small businesses disappear. Don't we have the same COVID support programs for all kinds of businesses in need? Big businesses (supposedly richer) have always had a better chance of withstanding a crisis longer than a small business. We have had those monopolies before the pandemic. What exactly is the big difference now, according to you, which it turning us into a socialist country?

blah blah blah.....your are only digging yourself in deeper and deeper.

This from a guy to whom Fascism and communism are the same thing? Isn't your statement that helping those businesses in need and giving them money is socialist and therefore should be discontinued? What kind of BS are you pulling out now about empathy? Empathy is socialist and communist; if you want to be a capitalist, you leave those in need drown and go belly up. I am done with you. As I said, not worth my time commenting and then fighting with the monkeys.

Not worth my time commenting again, but what the heck... To you socialism, fascism or communism seem to be the same thing. Wrong! What you call "entrepreneurial spirit" may be simply called greed. Yes, there was a political order that tried to eliminate greed and put other values and virtues over it. This regime (socialism) was more successful in achieving that than our Western democratic regime in its efforts to eliminating racism, discrimination, poverty or protect the environment. You can point fingers and put the blame here and there, but at the end of the day all of us are the same monkeys!

What do you expect me to do? Re-write the Marxist manifests here to explain how the world is supposed to be run by people and for people? I am not going to be comparing socialism with capitalism to determine which is better. We can have a brand new political order with a brand new name , where the name does not matter. What matters is how we can get our freedom back and shift focus to the important things in life.

We may not be collectively in debt, because what is supposedly owed by our government to the banks and those behind the banks is owed to the winner of our Monopoli game in Canada. As I said those winners do not expect to collect all of their bogus winnings, but they can collect as much as you can afford to pay them. They have ways to do their calculation and squeeze the last cent out of your pocket to the point where you barely survive. What do I "own"? Philosophically speaking I own nothing. None of us owns anything. We borrow substance from the environment and give it back upon our demise. But a fucking capitalist government will make you believe you can own land and stuff, so they can sell those to you. They can charge you for water and the next step is to start charging you for air. They can install breathing meters on you and ask you to pay based on your consumption. If you can't pay, air supply to you is cut off, till you can pay, which will be about 180 seconds. With all this being said. I am surprised there are so many people (almost everyone), who accept being screwed and obediently bend over instead of fight for their actual freedom.

I agree. But in this case the word is Kickback, not payment.

Then why are we in debt? Government also controls all remaining resources and land. They dispossess of land by selling it to businesses and then charging annual taxes on same land thus increasing revenues. However, taxing land, means whoever has the land must generate income on same land to pay taxes. A mine may extract all ore and then get rid of the land, forestry will take the trees and then leave the land and so on and so forth, but the interesting part to me is when taxes exceed the productivity of the land in any way. Extraction of resources will leave the government will useless land they cannot sell any more, like landfills and contaminated sites for example. Those are growing. So the assets values will go down at one point, whatever that will bring along. Despite all explanations so far, I continue to maintain our government is a Ponzi scheme.

This is going to be only a small chunk . Most money comes from somewhere else. Did you watch the You-Tube video I posted on p.7? Have you heard of the government doing a fire sale of bonds because they need more money to get further into debt? I haven't. You are very far from the truth.

If they did not seize the bank accounts of those involved in the KPMG scam, they sure cannot come after me. Same principle applies: If everyone tells them they will not pay before the rich pay, tough luck for them. They have to bend down.

No explanations, that's OK. Most people are confused. But if you are ever afraid of the National Debt and the taxes the Government wants from you, show them this, and tell them to go and collect from these guys first. I think of stopping paying tax to the government till they sort this mess first and prove to me that tax was paid.

I see nothing. Do you see anything?

That's OK. I make no distinction. There are at least 50 different languages and ethnicities in India. There are probably over 50 different shades of white too, but Singh would call all of them white.

So he believes he has been discriminated against in the past? Well, he is right. I discriminate against Hindu's based on past negative experience with each and every one I have had any business dealings with. But then you have government sanctions against other nations for just the same reason. So if a government is Kocher with issuing sanctions against a whole country, or an Ebay seller is allowed to ban shipments to countries of choice, I too have a right on a personal lever to select people I want t o do business with, or elect to represent me! I've said it before and will say it again , multiculturalism does not work for so many different reasons.

After I and the moderator asked you to stick to the topic, you continue off topic like nothing was ever said! Impressive. This is the concern of the original poster: You can respond with what you know about the National Debt, who the money is owed to, do you feel concerned - yes or no, and why

Do you know of a service that can send e-mails on your behalf to a recepient automatically with a chosen frequency? I am trying to fight some commercials here. Fight fire with fire as they say.

Explain how.

I don't understand your analogy, but I can offer up one of my own. What happens to the winner in a game of MONOPOLI ? Supposedly he is the winner; in real world he is the greatest loser, because he has destroyed everyone else, and his world cannot go any further. Game over for him! How can the game continue after he has won? Easy. He can give some of the accumulated money as loans to the bankrupt players and let them carry on what they are doing - produce goods and services, while getting further and further in debt to him. Numbers do not matter at this point as no repayment is expected. The goals is to keep the game continue, so the winner can continue to exist in the game. This is the situation with the National Debt to you as an analogy.

There are plenty of explanations with various degree of validity on You Tube.

Any relevance to "Canada national debt out of control" ? You seem to slide on he surface of the original subject, guys, and then carry on discussing anything imaginable in this world and beyond.

Truth must be somewhere in the middle. Supposedly we breathe in clean oxygen rich air and breathe out dirty / oxygen depleted air. If you start putting this poor air again through your lungs and recycle many times, this can't be good for you. But then, this is the same as sitting in an unventilated room after a smoker has had a dozen cigarettes in the room; or sleeping with the blanket over your head (and maybe passing gas). ;-) Masks create moisture around your face which can't be good either. I wear glasses and masks cause the lenses to fog up; a losing cause for me.

Of course you will be told that. This is the core of the Ponzi scheme. New players getting into the game. We are going in circles here. Army Guy feared he had to contribute to the repayment of the high national debt. I am saying no worries, debt is not real; just someone asking for interest on interest which, if they are smart enough, they know they will not get. All they can get is that indebtedness as in absolute control to do what they want.

And this reminds me of another problem we have. People find work which is given to them and often times we are better off if same work wasn't done at all. I wouldn't send someone to a mine or an oil rig or netting fish in the ocean just so they do some work. If their work is not needed they better not do anything. But I hear immigrants keep on coming in, despite pandemic concerns and poor job markets. This is what makes zero sense to me, not the CERB.

again you are missing the big picture. They can throw people on the street if the majority are still in their houses. When it comes to throwing the majority out on the street, they can only kiss my ass or suck my dick, whatever they prefer; they cannot do it. This is why Trudeau is paying the CERB, not that he is just stupid and wants to look good. Use your head more, read CBC less and relax!

Yes, Their scheme is slightly different but equally unsustainable. They are asking you to pay more than what you take. At one point you can no longer do that as there is nothing out there to grab and give to them.
