Homogenized Society:

Karl Marx figured a homogenized society would be the perfect world for everyone. That's when everybody gets to enjoy equal benefits and security and no one has more than anyone else.

That's what Andrea Horwath is promoting in Ontario, Justin Trudeau and Gerald Butts in Canada. For them, it's the post-national world.

For some, this is already a reality. When you view all those protesters on the highways, the railways, on street corners and in front of parliament buildings, it becomes obvious that there is a sub-culture that can afford to stand there and shout obscenities instead of going to work to pay utilities and taxes.

Who is feeding these hooligans? How can they afford to stand there and do that?

How long will the working folk paying for this free lunch continue before giving up and joining the freeloaders?

How long can an economy continue this before it runs out of taxpayers?

And when that happens, who will be around to pay for that free lunch?. 

Wilful Ignorance?

Just when political intervention in the transportation corridors shut down is warranted, our PM is out doing the heroics in Backwoods Africa. 

Clever move. There will be no necessity for anyone to explain why nothing is being done or make excuses for what was said.

Why risk offending a significant voting block of politicized rabble? It's still early in the season. Maybe we'll get a really cold day and they'll all get cold and go home.

Modern Inquisition:

That Impeachment of US President Donald Trump media event is the perfect example of how the social consciousness in the western world has deteriorated back to 15th Century standards. 

Just think what Torquemada himself could have done with modern media hype during the Spanish Inquisition.

The really scary part? These Democratic party inquisitors are going to select someone to oppose Trump in the fall. 

Now, that's really scary.

Teaching Unimportant?

There were hordes of strikers milling about on the sides of Upper Middle Road this AM. They were teachers out there to remind motorists that they were again striking for more wages and less work.

It might be assumed they have little concern the time they waste milling around like stray sheep makes a difference in what their students learn this year. 

And if that's the case, then it might be correct to assume that their presence in the classroom is somewhat overrated.

And if that's the case, it might be correct to assume that there's a good chance they are already being overpaid.

And if that's the case, maybe it is time to evaluate what their classroom presence actually means in this new age of volatile information exchange.

And if that's the case, how long before they are replaced by far more dependable and reliable robotics?

Those electronics whiz kids are probably perfecting mechanized union leaders right at this very moment. 

Such mechanoids would probably prove no more responsive to reality than the people they replace. 

Quick Maturity:

Those clever devils in charge of our Liberal leader in Ottawa have almost instantly enhanced his public image by hiding his razor.

He's beginning to look more mature every day.

Now we have to listen carefully to see if he sounds more mature.

Phoney Surveys:

Surveys conducted by the electronic media should not be taken seriously. They can be tailored to show a pre-determined result.

It is not easy to believe that any parents of school children being used as hostages in a teacher's strike for less work and more pay would approve of what their hard-earned tax money is buying..

Yet, the media comes up with numbers clearly designed to give viewers the impression that an overwhelming majority of parents approve of this.

Getting the right answers is easy. Media snoops stick a microphone and camera in as many people's faces as they need to get the answers they want. They discard the rest.

Then they down play or disregard entirely the other side of the story and present this as news.

Sloppy News Editing:

News editors in the electronic media have a tendency to allow hyperbole to get in the way of accuracy.

CBC News re: that Iranian general who was de-activated somewhat abruptly on Friday referred to the event as "murdered".

Not surprising to see this kind of hype in US leftist media bias, but we should expect better from Canada's taxpayer-sponsored purveyors of world events. 

Only civilians are murdered. Soleimani was not a civilian. He was described as a high-ranking military type who thought he was operating below the radar. His job was to quietly rub out people whenever Iran's mullahs thought they needed that service.

The US saw to it that he was de-activated permanently. That event should not be described as "murder" just to make Donald Trump look bad. He was "killed" like all military personnel who are terminated.
