Tweakers are highly comfortable in lying on most things... It's kind of a defense mechanism

Yabut, Ontario's manufacturing sector and the knowledge economy.

Big, massive contributors to employment and GDP

If it's so important to manufacturing and trade why have the Feds been investing in massive infrastructure projects and inland ports in Western Canada?

It's amusing to see you loathe prosperity.

Oh well.
Oh fer sure. Why, we're so goddam prosperous we can afford to blow almost $250,000 on a f*cking budget cover. Why, we're doing so goddam well that our govt can even waste time dickering over whether one of the "models" on the cover should be wearing glasses. That's the problem with idiots in charge who have zero impulse control when it comes to spending. In Liberal f*cktard land, prosperity simply means they're spending someone else's money like drunken sailors on shore leave.
And if we're so prosperous now, why the need to run successive structural deficits? We all know Trudeau didn't actually say "budgets balance themselves". What he said is even goddam dumber based on current happenings. What he said was, "When the economy is doing well the budget will balance itself."

Well, according to the govt's own report that you happily lapped up like a thirsty cur, the economy is humming along on all 8 cylinders. Therefore, according to Trudeau's own words, the budget should be nicely balanced by 2018-19 as originally promised. Now it's not going to be balanced at all. Well how can that be? The economy is rolling right along so Trudeau is either incredibly, stupidly naive and therefore not fit to be the PM, or he's a f*cking liar who believed (quite correctly I might add) that his supporters are incredibly, stupidly naive. Not to mention a level of gullibility that would make a confidence man salivate.

Go ahead, give us a display of your awesome knowledge. Explain why the budget won't be balanced despite the economy rolling along quite nicely, even though your hero succinctly stated that budgets balance themselves during good economic times.
I mean c'mon, so far the economy has been "super charged" and is in a "sweet spot" according to the govt releasing those reports, so why the need for successive structural deficits?

That depends on what happens to wages. Since our dollar is in the dumpster our buying power is not great.High inflation and a low dollar is not a good combination.

You got a problem with warm and fuzzy feel good spending? After all it will be our grandkids that have to pay for it.
