Things Are Looking Up For The Investor Class Oligarchy

The recession is dead. Long live the recession. Note to the oligarchy and its minions in the corporate press. Call me when unemployment in Ontario goes down to 5%.

Saturday Update: Of course, it could all be a scam, in which insiders are playing small investors for chumps.

Blue Liberals Talk Health Reform

I am sure when Rob Silver talks healthcare reform he means raising taxes, changing the way doctors are paid, and ending big pharma's ridiculously long patent protection on drugs, right? Believe that and you are probably a "progressive" Liberal voter.

Summer Blah's And American Healthcare Follies

I haven't been posting much lately. The crappy weather, combined with a certain amount of outrage fatigue, have taken a toll. But, I have been reading other people's stuff. Yes I have. And if you read nothing else today, read Ian Welsh's piece on the debacle that is the Obama healthcare plan. I am so glad Tommy Douglas got us healthcare before big pharma and big insurance were as organized as they are today. Now, I am going back to look outside for any sign of the sun.

Thanks Bob Rae

We could have had provincial auto insurance, but you wimped out. Now, Ontarians are paying huge premiums to cover the insurance companies' losses in the casinos of New York. Thanks again Bob, for nothing.

WTF?

Thanks to Warren K. for pointing this out. Steve. your staff blew it. They didn't give you great advice and you looked like a tool in front of the country. To try to turn this into some kind of vast left wing media conspiracy, is just you coming off of your medication. It isn't real. Go lie down, or kick some chairs, or something, ok? I can imagine the Pope smiling kindly and wondering who let the crazy guy into his audience chamber.
