Canada in Crisis

Found another blogger who has a lot of credentials but economy-killing ideas, Are you kidding me? It appears he has a laundry list of credentials including two degrees, an executive at a company and he teaches a business class as an instructor at the Univ. of Windsor. With all this stock, it appears he has not cracked a book with respect to free markets in his lifetime. And I quote from his post of February 13, 2007, titled "Industry In Crisis: Part II"

"...government needs to become more involved in helping the manufacturing sector."


"Likewise, the Ontario Liberal government has done its part in promoting and investing in growth, and in my opinion, has done it well."

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?

It has always seemed to me our neighbors to the North believe in a more socialized economy. Their taxes are high, medicine is government paid (duh, taxes), but they have been a good neighbor and our economies benefit tremendously from each other.

However the mutual benefits will decrease steadily if more well-educated, but wrongly educated folks such as this run the companies of the maple leaf.

What would Adam Smith or Milton Friedman say? "Read our books." And the students of our well-educated and well-placed blogger are learning rubbish.

What the Canadian economy needs is a little less government to save the manufacturing industry, the economy and the 1st world lifestyles of our friends to the North. They also need a lot less teachers who stopped learning when they left college.

Capitalism is so out of favor in Canada. It is amazing they do as well as they do.

You have to admit it's funny that 'Sicko' held up its socialized medicine as something to emulate while ignoring so many Canadians come south to get care because they can get it in their lifetime, not some bureaucrats.
