@justanoldman1 Like I said...I cant argue with an Idiot :o)

[justanoldman1]

@mxRC44 I guess you don't even know what free trade gave us do you? Perhaps you should look it up.

[justanoldman1]

@mxRC44 OK dummy.

[mxRC44]

@justanoldman1 WoW buddy, get over yourself, your the uneducated one here not me. But Think what you must, you blame the unions but fact is, if the government hadnt signed free trade agreements to make there wallet bigger these companies would NOT be allowed to even threaten to move the company to another country let alone do so. Keep voting Harper jackass, let me know how that works out. You cant argue with an idiot :o)

[justanoldman1]

@mxRC44 WOW you are dumber than I thought. Business has moved our jobs to third would countries because our wages are too high. I have seen myself several companies beg the unions to take a 10 to 20% cut to allow them to stay but of course they refused and the plants closed. Westinghouse/bluebell jeans/hershey's etc. all the same story. Don't blame the government for union stupidity as they do not control the global economy, business does but I guess you are too stupid to understand.

[mxRC44]

@justanoldman1 I prolly work a lot harder then you do there bucko, and Im a girl! Obv your one of the morons who vote for these assholes and believe the bullshit they feed you. They cater to the rich and tax the poor, so You must be rich...or just plain stupid. But hey if you like our jobs being shipped out of country and a struggling economy, keep doing what your doing.

There is not enough money in the world to stop the fossil industry get its way, renewables notwithstanding. Government is beholden to business that get their money from us who give it to their favorite legislature or representative who do the bidding of those who fund their election campaigns. A great system, some call it democracy, or is it a corpocracy, I forget.

If you say so. It is also a profession that involves a union. I detest unions. As do I and I have one of the most energy efficient houses for its size in Ontario. However, I don't pretend to say that we have another source of oil or something to take the place of oil. We don't, at least not yet. So to demonize an energy source when there is not a viable alternative yet is pure folly. Unless you live shivering in the dark.

@albertabeefcowboy84 Teaching is a noble profession, a helping profession. I do research as well. But,I'm not here to toot my horn or prove anything to you. I just know that if something feels wrong, there must be something wrong. I try very hard to live a life that respects the environment that I live in.
