You know what? I'm not even angry with Mulcair's NDP, anymore.

I'm done with them. I don't even care about them. They wanna continue purging candidates, as Dr Dawg describes it, then all the power to them. They wanna adopt neo-liberal policies, then fine. I'm done.
The NDP wants to take the neo-liberal route to power, then fine. I don't.
When, in the end, the only difference between Harper and Mulcair is facial hair, then I don't even want to bother. Fuck 'em.
I don't care enough about defeating Harper if the only option is to insert Mulcair into that very same seat to pursue the same goddamn policies.
What I want is complete and utter repudiation of the Israel first policy. I want the Tar Sands wound down, and the land eventually returned to farming and grazing, if at all still possible.
At the very least, I want an NDP leader who will brook disagreement on these issues within his own goddamn party.
If Mulcair can't handle dissent within his own ranks, then he can have my rebellion, instead.
Fuck Mulcair. Fuck the NDP.

Private Equity is a TERRIBLE Investment... Who Keeps Giving Them Money? — How Money Works

Not too much to comment. Business in the USA and by extension Canada is bad right now. Probably for a generation. We really do need a generational plan to get us out of this mess. A ten to twenty year program, unfortunately. Placing pieces onto the board and moving them where they need to be to make things work again. By pieces, I mean people. We need good strong policies to implement as well. There's a lot to think about.

The way forward

I've been a in deep, deep depression these past couple years. I'm naturally manic-depressive, but I've also been genuinely sad, without an inkling of what I've needed to do in my personal life. I've been lost, and I've lost some friends. Well, I'm still lost, but I'm emerging from my sadness. I've taken a lot of time to think whilst in my funk. I'd been thinking, "How do we extricate ourselves out of this mess we've placed ourselves? What is the way forward?" I've found no answer. There's no clear path forward. There's no strategy, no long term plan that can really account for every possible setback that will occur. I suppose that's true of all plans, though. "Plans are worthless, but planning is everything." The solution then, I guess, is we need to wing it. Improvise. Get tough, and push forward. Suffer the pains from the blows we will receive, without flinching. Start moving forward to a place we wan...

Carney speaks after capitulating to Trump's demands

Dunno how else it can be explained other than capitulation. Carney, you weren't elected to kowtow to Trump. You were elected to stand up to him. Canadians may even start to get buyers remorse for ditching Trudeau for you when he showed far more backbone than this. At least he cared more about Canadian sovereignty than this act. What exactly have you extracted for this? What benefit did this provide for Canadians compared to the billions in revenue Canada stood to gain from the Digital Services Tax as well as protecting Canada's ability to create its own taxes?
