  4. Young Canadians left jobless amid influx of cheap foreign workers

    I'm sure there's an economic case for TFWs in Fast Food.  But people should generally understand it and support it, in a democracy.

    I studied Economics and Business, and while I generally get what a rationale might be... I don't have a good feeling about it.

     

    The real question is... why doesn't the public understand that program and see any benefit whatsoever?

    Our Public Sphere is ailing...

  9. X (formerly Twitter) is no longer an impartial and independent social media platform

    Utter nonsense. He explicitly told his supporters to 'peacefully and patriotically' protest on that day.

    And made false claims of stealing, tried to influence electors for which he was charged, excommunicated his VP for following the law, refused to go on TV until it was clear that the insurrection failed etc etc.

    Any one of these actions would raise eyebrows of course.  So...if you think accusations of impropriety are nonsense then your perspective isn't trustworthy IMO.

    You're not a serious poster if you think there's absolutely nothing to note in that.  Conservatives care about institutions.

    Isn't it obvious? The cackling cauldron stirrer wants to "unburden" America of freedom and replace it with change SHE can believe in. 

    Yeah... Not obvious to me.  

    Pretty sure someone just made this up.  

    Trump told Christians that they wouldn't have to vote again after 2025.  That's a lot more clear than what you're reading into this.

    What a sh!tty election...

    It's not compatible with either party,  but the current working class populism and disdain for educated technocrat seen in the Trump movement is surpisingly close to previous communist movements. It wouldn't take much for a charismatic right wing figure to one day latch onto that movement after trump has kicked the bucket and do an essentially ownership-to-the-workers leftist political project (in the classical economic sense) under the guise of right wing rhetoric. Especially since New Left type politics has veered away from the economic and labor goals once championed on among actual socialists and leftists. I would absolutely become a Republican if they started doing socialism. 😀

    All the talk of the elites.... Sometimes including castigation of tech corporations or corporations in general..

    Didn't they have a union leader speak at their convention??

    Sure, I actually do have a question: at what age do you think people start doing that? 

     

    Yeah, probably 1 or 2 years old. I don't do it because it's gross, and they have bad breath a lot of the time somehow.
