Actually, I am. I thought I would be creative and add in extra research from people today. Don't know if that is a good idea, but just an idea.

I am not an expert in politics/government, but am very interested in the topic. Thus, I am doing research and reading textbooks to get a sense of such expertise. Would you agree with me that the articles tend to display that we are going from a left-wing (communism) economic ideology towards capitalism (right-wing) ideology?

I think you are confused. We have always been a capitalist economy. We may be slightly socialist socially. Our finance ministers cater to their puppet masters in the financial and corporate ivory halls. They couldn't give a flying phuk about the unwashed masses.

Hmm . . . I may be indeed confused. Any chance I can contact you via email to discuss something regarding politics? Or chat somewhere?

Thanks.

I have come to conclude that in reference to the articles mentioned above, it can be said that Jim Flaherty expresses a Capitalistic Ideology. Would you agree? Although, it is more to a mixed economy with capitalism characteristics.

I have another question for you guys relating to the articles. Need some feedback as to what you would suggest the minister of finance do if you were him?

polimaster, the first article you provided is total horse**** and the second is worse.

A/ there is no recovery taking place
b/ we are sliding rapidly from a mixed very slightly left economic model to fascism
c/ the world is preparing for open global war
d/ the ministers economic ideology expressed or otherwise is the same neo liberal gibberish that has resulted in this global depression,
3/he has exactly the same policy as every other western nation, stuff the rich and starve and brutalize the rest until global power is consolidated in the hands of the elite, for ever.
q/ Cliffy said it all

I see, thank you for your input.

Could you enlighten me on the implications of differing rates of recovery between Canada and the United States?

How would it affect Canada if we recovered faster than the US or vice versa?

Is my train of thought correct?

If we recover faster, our economy will eventually go into another recession shortly after, due to our dollar being greater than the USA, the USA not being able to purchase from us, etc.

If it were to happen vice versa, we would be in a healthy economy as it should be.

Sometimes I agree with the Cons, the govt can't use stimulus forever. The economy has to make some changes on its own to improve. Like business has to export beyond the USA, but that takes time. Sometimes I wonder, are we going to be Greece or Germany?

In reference to the above articles, does anyone know of any interest groups that have a position on how the minister handles the transition from government stimulus to private investment?

Pay attention,there is no recovery taking place. There is differing rates of collapse. Your train of thought is not correct. There is not enough industrial capacity to support a recovery. We don't produce and we will never recover until we do. But first a great big global war. How do you feel about fighting the terrorist Chinese to protect your countries bankers. China bashing will overtake Iran bashing which over took Iraq bashing which all takes place while the Palestinians are bashed constantly in the background.

Google BIS and you will find the only interest group of importance handling the transition to the total private planet. Of course nothing that I say will pass you prof or teacher cuz they wouldn't have jobs if they told you the truth.

It seems BIS is more towards the world, and position in the USA, I am having trouble finding related articles in regards to CANADA and its stimulus transition.

I did a bunch of google searches still no luck with a good interest group to discuss in my paper. Anyone have any ideas of a interest group that has a position on the transition of stimulus to private sector?

Does anyone have a slightest idea? I am researching for over 24 hours and can not find a single group. Does it even exist?

I gave this question some very serious thought and the answer is "BS".

Your Welcome. :)

I don't think he wants to hear the truth.
