blackbird Posted March 26 Report Posted March 26 "The carbon tax was a market mechanism that Carney has long supported. On the other hand, Carney has no time for markets — unless the government is involved. “We know that markets don’t have values; people do. And we know, we know, as Liberals, that it’s our job, our job, to make the economy work.” What Canada needs, claims Carney, is a national government that makes sure “markets are governed well.” Carney does not place any limits on how Ottawa would govern markets. Maybe The Hinge provides more detail." Read this full article: Terence Corcoran: The (missing) book on Mark Carney’s plan for Canada I see this interventionist ideology as a type of Marxism. This describes the liberal/NDP ideology quite well. That is why Canada is in the mess it is in. Government intervention in every aspect of the economy has really hamstrung growth and discouraged foreign investment. Without foreign investment, our resources will remain in the ground and the cost of everything will rise while the average income stagnates. Fewer jobs means reduced prosperity. More bureaucracy to implement intervention means more taxes and less money available for essential services. Quote
