I've learned about Canada from Canadian expats I've befriended, but Jet, and anyone else, feel free to start a Canada thread, or offer info anytime.

The energy plan viz T. Boone Pickens. That's a fekin far stretch. T Boone is interested in alt energy, but what is he doing? He's buyin up all the water reservoirs in the Texas panhandle and any other place he can nearby coz he views water as the next must-have commodity with a price tag -- ie, it's going to run out and people will have to pay and he's going to be the seller.

T. Boone Pickens is one of the reasons why the US is not a democracy. 527 groups and pumping millions of dollars into them. Now his face is on the TV a lot.

Get the fekin unions outta there and make the mgmt turn the cos around like any smart bizperson should.

The unions are an endangered species. Less than 10% of workers in the US belong to a union. I know of one industry, that if it goes non-union, will make it not even worth working in: lower pay with high cost of living, and a 401K.
This is when it's time to switch industries.
