Living through the decline of the USA empire is getting harder as it continues to drag us down with it.

I am losing count of all of the different reasons Trump is giving for the sanctions. Increasing global spending on war is going to have negligible impacts on USA jobs.
President Donald Trump said Spain should “be punished” over its opposition to raising its defense spending, adding that he had considered levying tariffs against products from the country

We the working class, cannot afford Capitalism.

Remember this when someone says that we cannot afford public transit, healthcare, public housing, education, increasing the minimum wage / pensions / social welfare, environmental protection, etc.

Doug Ford & the Tories are wasting our taxes on ads trying to sell their giveaway of public land at Ontario Place to a foreign company.

Tories are financially irresponsible! They funnel Corporate Welfare to companies connected to them. They blow the daycare funding & more. #onpoli

This is not a good sign. Capitalists are banking on you & I needing payment plans on even more purchases.

Capitalists are betting against us and for the economy to get worse for workers. All while we live through an unrivalled transfer of wealth to the already wealthy from workers like you & I.

Stiles questions how Crombie can protect public healthcare given she accepted $25K donations from private healthcare insiders

I have always wondered about the methodology of the websites purporting to prevent vote splitting.

From this and other things I have seen they frankly look biased to the Liberals. Even if by faulty methodology.
Here are a few riding polls from EKOS and Impact Strategies

Thunder Bay-Superior:
PC 33 - NDP 33 - LIB 29 - GRN 2

Thunder Bay-Atikokan:
NDP 31 - PC 30 - LIB 30 - GRN 4

A billionaire who has attached himself to the federal government while sucking massive amounts of money from it thinks *other* people are “parasites”
This is disgusting, especially for someone who has been given so much power over government programs.

You know something is up when some billionaires are starting to want to give away certain things for free.

Now is the time to push harder. Confiscate their ill-gotten wealth.

I am sick and tired of so called principaled leftists offering nothing but anger, mockery, and condescension when I organise in electoral politics and their idea of organising is calling a constituency office and post online about doing so.

I organise both inside and outside. You just shit post.
