White Doors

Soon I'm sure but it can't be any worse than the NDP that we have been used to - post Broadbent.

Actually.. The motivations are even WORSE than that. Those type of people don't even CARE to know. Their mind is made up and that's it. Sad isn't it?

Then again, Canadians are NOT south koreans or Spanish are they? After you look through the short term agony of 'death polls' Canadiand 'buck up' if they believe. Canadians have a hard earned reputation of being ferocious warriors.. Both combatants and civilians. We just need to believe. If we cannot believe in Afghanistan - what conflict CAN we really BELIEVE in?

It would sure help out Atlantic Canada that's for sure. Hey! I agree! ANY tax cut for the maritimes can ONLY be beneficial for the economy. Wean the east coast off of hand outs and encourage inovation. Can't lose.

I was just reading that it looks like income splitting for everyone is probably off the table. It is just too expensive. I imagine the Finance department has told the minister that any country that has done this has tried to scale back the program as it is a monster to budget for. Even though families are good for society in that this is the way that they produce the next generation of productive workers... I think more can be donefor our productivity through decreasing the marginal rates of income taxes for now. Income splittin gis getting too far ahead of where we have to go. Some day that will be THE most legitimate tax cut, but it is not now.

Might be too steep of a drop for one budget but they could start the ball rolling for sure!

And NAIT is no MIT. hahaha

They can do it subtely. For example seriously cutting the corporate tax rate to placate the income trust issue. This will have the anti-business crowd of the far left clammoring for blood and forcing Dion's hand for him. It would be a good political strategy AND a wise economic move. See? Christ, I should be a strategist.

I wasn't responding to you catchme. I was talking with jdobbin. It's not always about you, you know.

Wow.... Italy isn't in Europe.. greece either. guess we better redraw the maps. LOL Only in your little mind is that the case I guess. Merely the title of a book that I have read and you have not otherwise you wouldn't type something so silly. Europeans were more technologically advanced. That is all I said and it is a fact as surely as the sun rises in the east and sets in thw west. I'm suproised people would argue it. Well idealogues will argue thr colour of the sky if it makes their narrow views on the world untrue. pity.

What evidence is there of that? No evidence. A hunch that he better they are doing in the polls, the more rique the budget will be to 'dare' the liberals to take them down. A good way would be to decrease taxes and maybe lower funding to one dept to give them something to howl about. Either way, exciting times afoot!

what a dumb question

cite? They were for a time. Europe caugth up and passed them and the Islamic peoples as well in the late middle ages.

Yes. The natives hunted them to extinction. As I said, I never said WHY. I believe all humans are equal. You got all fired up and tried to paint me as a racist. You should be ashamed of yourself.

You do know that Europe is a geographical location do you? you are making yourself look silly here.

See? You are trying, in vain, to paint me as a racist: I never said any 'race' was superior. Never even brought it up. What I did say was that European SOCIETY was much more advanced at the time than FN society. That is a fact.

Exactly! thank you! I never said anyone was dumb or stupid. You inferred that. My contention is the European society was much more advanced than First nations. No one asked me WHY. you were too busy calling me names. Makes it hard to have an intelligent conversation doesn't it? I'm glad that you finally agree with me on this issue catchme. In other words, tell me where I said WHY it was this way.. I;ll save you time. you can't because I didn't. I know far lefties feel they have to not like caucasians (why I don't know) but I was just staing facts and i get tarred and feathered as a racist. You and posit have to ask yourselves why that is. Diamond's book explains WHY and I agree 100% with him. You never asked me WHY because you weren't interested in learning WHY.

Oh boys... clay tablets? you are seriously comparing that to the printing press? ok... exactly what I said... Care to read what I wrote again? You really are quite daft eh? Big deal, neanderthals made cave paintings. that doesn't denote an advanced culture my boy. Uhhh.. The Romans? yeah, me smart. So the iroquois had plumbing did they? funny that hasn't turned up in any archeological digs.. LOL So the Indians are really the one's who invented the Internal combustion engine? Ok then... Uh.. Greece is in Europe. Consult a globe for verificaiton. That reminds me. Representative Democracy. A greek invention. thanks! So the mayans had a refracting telescope before the Europeans? Link please. haha - golden! Me with the xenophobia? I haven't referred to a race of people as dirty or dumb - that was you. Replace that word European with 'black' and see how outlandish you are. Besides, all my assertions are based on fact, not hate. See this link for even more! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medieval_technology I see that our high schools need to teach history more often. Amazing how deluded people can become of history when they have an agenda to promote. Here's some more: Compass Rotary grindstone Heavy Plough Horse Collar Horse Shoes magnets Mechanical clocks stern mounted rudders The idea of the Quarantine Soap Streel Crossbow Tidal Mills. Wind Mills Wheel barrow (with the all important WHEEL of course) LOL

Nice! The better polls we get leading up to a budget the bigger the tax cuts will be.

Yay! Another one. I'm goign to pop some popcorn and see what Poly will 'reveal' this episode! LOVE IT!

Roman's are not Europeans? Rome is in Italy fyi. Check out a globe for verification. I'm taking personal credit? haha ok, whatever helps your sleep at night. They sailed it, sure - but they had no advanced trade routes like the Portugese for example. obtuse much? There are also cave drawings in France that are 13,000 years old. Not quite the renaissance in my opinion... Yes there are numerous examples where they farmed until the land was turned fallow and simply moved on to the next arable land to repeat the process. Sorry, did you have a point to make here? Ever wonder why the 'White man' had a natural tolerance to this? it was because the 'white man' had advanced domesticatuion of animals millenia before FN's did. Small Pox is a disease of cows and pigs. European society was Much much more advanced then the FN's were and that is a fact. They continued this dominance for hundreds of yeara after first contact as well. This is all laid out for you in "Guns Germs and steal" You should read it. It won the pullitzer.

Hey Can you clean up your post so I can read it? I'm not putting down FN peoples. All I am saying is the European society was MUCH more advanced at the time. That is a fact. FN's didn't even have the WHEEL for gosh sakes. Come on. They didn;t even know how to ride a horse before the Europeans came over here. Could be because they killed all of the North American horses off before they could learn how. We are all humans of equal value, but European society was the most advanced in the world at the time of first contact. Of that there is no doubt.

haha Oh my. Yes, you have a HUGE white man guilt complex going on don't you? You poor boy. Ok, Michelangelo? The printing press? Feudalism? Discovery of the new world and the first to communicate back and forth from it? Sailing the world? World-wide trade? The Renaissance? Capitalism? Aquaducts? Indoor plumbing? Crop rotation? The internal Combustion engine? The steam engine? The refracting telescope? Submarine? Blood tranfusion? Barometer? Champagne? pocket watch? Steam pump? pressure cooker? Universal Joint? How about the piano? Classical music? fire extinguisher? thermometer? The sextant? telegraph? eye glasses? parachute? bicycle? battery? cotton gin? smallpox vacine? Do you feel silly yet?

You managed to ignore the context of the question asked. Let me repeat it and see if it helps. Since welfare is available, why would someone work for less? Isn't welfare better than "nothing" or "scraps of wood and garbage peelings to eat", and if you agree it is, why would a sane person work for "scraps of wood and garbage peelings to eat" rather than collect welfare? hate to play the devils advocate, but we have homelss people now that do not collect it.

haha what a load of horse manure. If they were so 'advanced' as you assert, why did they have such a problem coming up with the wheel?? 'nuff said. haha
