Why Canada’s economy is underperforming

[B00Mer]

Don't worry folks, I have a job.

It's a well paying job in the PRIVATE SECTOR *gasp*

You see, those of us that excel don't need to complain even when taxes go up.

 

[B00Mer]

Don't you worry about me.

I'm perfectly happy with my wife and kids.

If you actually have to convince yourself by saying it...

 

[petros]

Don't you worry about me.

I'm perfectly happy with my wife and kids.

Happy? So why do you need me to pay for your kid's day care? Because you settled instead of being innovative, cutting edge and ambitious I'm stuck with the bill because I am innovative, cutting edge and ambitious?

Apparently I have plenty in you alone to worry about

 

[CDNBear]

Flossy's so happy, even his salty desperation smiles.

It's about priorities.

Would you rather have that money for popcorn and beer or to help your kids?

 

[petros]

I can afford my children, if I couldn't, I'd get a second job instead of being lazy and passing the buck.

 

[mentalfloss]

Expecting people to get a second job is not realistic.

Especially when the economy has been so ****ed up by Harper.

 

[petros]

Wanting me to pay for you is?

 

[CDNBear]

Expecting people to get a second job is not realistic.

Why?

 

[petros]

Am I your dad?

 

[CDNBear]

Especially when the economy has been so ****ed up by Harper.

Some deliciously edited in salt, lol.

 

[mentalfloss]

It depends on what our priorities are.

 

[CDNBear]

It depends on what our priorities are.

Why is getting a second job unrealistic?

 

[mentalfloss]

Why?

Because the likelihood of it happening is small.

 

[petros]

When do I get to see my grandkids so I teach them about the real world?

Because the likelihood of it happening is small.

Why? too f-cking lazy and irresponsible?

 

[CDNBear]

Because the likelihood of it happening is small.

Are you calling Canadians lazy?

 

[darkbeaver]

does that include Credit Unions? There are more Credit Unions than Banks in Canada. I'd say Credit Unions are running Canada moreso than banks.

Well if that's the case then why do we borrow from private international banks?

 

[mentalfloss]

Are you calling Canadians lazy?

No, are you?

 

[CDNBear]

No..

It sure sounds like you are. Saying getting a second job is unrealistic.

 

[petros]

Why is a second job not an option? Without these socialist safety nets youd do what? Let one kid die to save the other instead of working harder?
