Brad love the picture, these two could be Klaus's, who knows now a days!

But the real problem in mismanagement by the governments of Canada, any money funded for these programs to help the homeless are eaten up in administration costs, (but yes lets pay for federal governments menstrual products @ $16 million annually)!

But the homeless could be taken care of right now, by the Federal government, reversing it's plans to spend $700 MILLION annually, on abortion clinics in the Middle East and Africa, or so they say they are???

That $700 MILLION, should be split up between the provinces, working out to $63 MILLION each and those 230,000 people would be taken care of in the first year!... Then the provinces could use that annual money to provide housing, education, employment for these people, instead of pretending that the federal government is doing good, in the foreign countries! BS!!!

Sure I think we should help the less fortunate, but not at the expense of your own people!... Take care of them first, putting them back on track, looking after themselves, creating employment, will help in the long run, not these short term bandaid repairs, that just turn into a money pit, for the government to use on the world stage, while bankrupting your own people, is not the way to do things!!! WTF?

Communism and financial capitalism are both totalitarian instruments of oppression cultivated by certain elites with the intention of collapsing our civilizing instincts and turn us all into programmed unreflective automatons. Justin Trudeau was hand selected by Klaus Schwab to implement the fall of compassionate man and replace him with instrumental man. Every man and woman today has been rendered subservient to the state. The financial structure extant is not an economy; it is an apparatus. A communist structure is not an economy; it is an apparatus. Both are totalitarian in their manifestations. Each of them are totalitarian in that society is managed from the top down. A real economy and the society in which it flourishes is emergent. We cannot foresee the future. Thousands of participants in a real economy are seeking to maximize their opportunities; the marketplace decided whether an emergent discovery or opportunity is acceptable or desirable. But we cannot predict what those discoveries might be or how desirable they may be before they are manifested.

Totalitarianism implies that a small cadre of elites decide in advance what is acceptable, including speech and what is desirable including who decides. The dream of some is absolute control over your labour and its rewards.

Whom are they deciding what the cost of money is. Powerful people lower interest rates, manipulating the public to borrow beyond the means of the many when those powerful people then raise the interest rates.

There a many services today where there is no optional providers. The price of gasoline raises and lowers according to the prices demanded by a limited number of refineries. Electricity is provided by only one provider. Medical care is withheld by rationing.

Everyone is dependent on the state to redistribute enough of the enormous tax revenues pouring into government coffers to provide medical care. By withholding funds obviously care deteriorates or disappears.

When the central banks raise interest rates people whom have barely managed to get by but have adjusted to a certain limited cash flow suddenly are confronted by price increases they cannot embrace. They may get laid off or their wages may not keep up with those rising costs.

The market place did not work out gradually the cost of labour or the cost of money or the cost of various goods or services.

The costs and prices of everything suddenly changes when decisions are made to reverse policies implemented with intentional aims and intentions which alter the expectations of people in entire countries. These top down run policy changes are not market driven. The effect is control. Control is effectively totalitarian. A financialized economy is the same as a communist economy.

A financialized economy is not a capitalist economy. It is not a market economy. A communist economy is the same thing as a financialized economy. It is not a market economy. Neither one is an economy.

Control is the aim of totalitarianism. In effect a small group of people intentionally collapsed the market, erecting an enormous tax collecting structure, and a policy making, and policy enforcing structure instead.

Bureaucracies metastasize while more and more people work for the continuance of state totalitarianism. More and more people are co-opted to enforce the diktats of totalitarianism. Every bureaucrat then advances his or her interests by advancing the interests of the state. You can be sure that this implies employing the agencies of state violence.

This is more than evident at the moment.

The enquiry into the justification for employing state violence against the truckers and their supporters is underway. Of course, as is the usual practice, no employee of the state at any level is interested in taking responsibility for actions taken against the protestors. Justin Trudeau well and truly understands that no one at any level of the state apparatus will take the least responsibility for the debasement of a constitutional right to protest and speak. All are only to happy to use the violent means the state provides to de-legitimize the rights of the truckers to protest in the precincts where the states edicts are crafted.

The exact same instruments of the totalitarian state emerged when the COVID showed up. No one dares oppose the conventionally received edicts. No matter whether the necessity of employing the states apparatus was necessary or legitimate or not; the response was a manifestation of totalitarian intransigence.

The state made sure the people were obedient. The state closed down every avenue the non-compliant could protest or defy. This is the present reality in Canada.

The state demands compliance across the board and ensures compliance by controlling societies access to any and all

avenues which would countervail the states totalitarian diktats.
