Funny, none of my buddies asked for nor did they take bailouts.

that's exactly my point. canada regulated its rich more than the US
did. that's why your economy didnt tank like ours did. americans are
fundamentalists on religion AND economics...preferring the rich and
powerful in both cases

Bullsh1t. Canada bailed out banks just like the US did. $75 billion to
start with a $50 billion possible over run. Very hush hush but the
debts are there. GM & Chrysler got their piece too as did others.
Magna for example was owed $1.6 billion by GM, part of the negotiations
was that Magna would be bailed, you know Belinda's daddy.

Canada followed suit the same way. Just the PR by CBC and in the
political pocket media didn't make the ado of it as the Americans did.

So basically a minimum wage and no pension worker is bailing out
GM/Banks/corruption and has some mix of higher taxes and elss services.
Is that fair?

Ask
Obama about that and why Bin Laden's investment in Carlyle, a major GM
holder of paper needed a bailout of GM so bad. Better not tick of his
Saudi masters now.

funny that the first thing bush did after 9/11 was arrange for bin
laden's american family to get out of the country

But it all comes back to government corruption.

and america makes corruption the law....but only by the rich

So does Canada. US illegally starts an unprovoked war with Libya, backs
the UN to overthrow governments with UN backing in Ivory Coast... Canada
does the same. Take a look at CIDA payouts, looks like a UN pork fest
multi billion dollar corruption stream.... Hundreds of front companies
in the pile getting Canadian taxpayers money.

Canada and the US government are two very corrupt governments. And hey
work together. I didn't see Ignatieff or Layton once talk against
Harper's following US policy. Power and greedy pull Obama's strings,
Obama has strings to Harper. If Harper gets out of line, Liberals will
see more cash to get Iggy, Obama's Harvard man in place.

Corrupt as hell.
