Comment on Clark Will Break Up BC Hydro by Laz

There has been a for sale sign on B.C.’s assets ever since the liberals took over. Eventually people will realize that when all the revenue procucing are gone, and they are the only one’s left to finance the needs of the electorate, it will be far far too late. But it’s ok. No doubt the spin doctors will convince the majority that it’s for their own good.
That’s the problem with democracy. The majority is always wrong.

Comment on Dix Let Liberals Get Away with Murder by Gavin Bamber

I agree about the BC Rail cover-up. Something stank to high heaven, and I can’t help but believing that people deserved jail time.

A rather odd situation… the Libs and BC Rail… the NDP and Fast-Cats… transportation incompetence with the public getting screwed.

Comparing anything bad that Adrian Dix ever did during his lifetime to what the Liberals got away with the BC Rail giveaway shows a lack of perspective. And I think that the biggest tragedy of this electoral result is, we will now never get a full investigation of the BC Rail scandal.

How about the obvious explanation: We didn’t want a criminal for Premier.

The Forger also didn’t have a rational platform, he was flip-floppy, and couldn’t reassure voters that another NDP government wouldn’t be just as much as a disaster as all of the previous ones.

Dix was a 2, Clark was a 3 … better the devil we know.

It’s too late now, the ship has sailed. Had the NDP won the election the citizends would not have seen much of a change. Perhaps people increasingly realize this, and that may account for the declining voter turnout. Why bother if the outcome remains the same. It’s not so much apathy as resignation. Party politics have destroyed democracy.
It can be restored only by making sure that independent candidates are elected, who may be responsible to the public rather than a doctrine, or a despot disguised as a leader.

Comment on Video: Liberals Bankrupting BC with $171 Billion Debt Legacy by Laz

The debt has room to grow yet. Wait until the bills come in for the natural gas pie in the sky. What Dix did not realize is that China just signed a 50 year agreement for natural gas to be brought in via a pipe line from Russia. Does anyone really believe that shipping gas via tankers could be competitive with that? The poor fool shot himself and his party in the foot needlessly. I am not a fan of the NDP, but they were the only hope B.C. had to perhaps remove the for sale sign on everything owned by the public. Thanks Mr. Dix

It’s yet to be seen how many criminals the Liberals have or had in office. Campbells one. But till an inquiry into BC rail is completed by the NDP I am sure we’ll have Chrusty’s and her ilk being another.

“Mair’s Axiom II. You don’t have to be a 10 in politics, you can be a 3 if everyone else is a 2.”
Dix is a 2, Clark is a 3 … Better her over the criminal
