You really cannot accept the fact that the government helps industry can you?

Helps industry? Your job relies on tax credits the same way it helps a kid who works at Booster Juice

Should we axe it and see how long it takes before your employer to moves to Botswana? I'm sure a Botswanan can do your job for less.

The only people worried about the current downturn suffer from short term thinking.
Lower fuel prices mean there is more discretionary spending available to other parts of the economy.

Prices drop every winter, they will also rise May 1 to a level that could be a lot higher than they are now, that is when companies fold.

I wonder if we're at economic war with Saudi/OPEC ISholes?

That would also mean no Saudi NG for the EU to meet emissions and the planet is sure to die.

Generally speaking, the usual suspects try to blame him for any and every global issue.

Fail! Somebody posted a link to a story that didn't involve Harper and you had to bring him into it. Clearly these issues are too complex for your "my guy is always right" silliness. Perhaps you should move along and let the adults talk m'kay.

Great, Cannuck's in a tizzy over his hero Jian and all the flack he's getting, so now he's on one of his hypocritical tirades.
