I'd agree with Jonny's post. Talking about politics is widely denounced as taboo and yet government and corporations are influential forces we have to come to terms with. It's not surprising that they prey on people who haven't taken the time to construct a rational analysis of existing policies. |

dino_bobba_renno dino_bobba_renno: You're starting to look about as uneducated as Mulcair, you know the NDP expert who has never so much as set foot in this province.
