The incoming administration in the United States is pursuing a policy of aggressive economic nationalism, including a threat of 25 per cent tariffs. We need to take that threat extremely seriously, Freeland wrote. That means keeping our fiscal powder dry today, so we have the reserves we may need for a coming tariff war. Freeland went on: That means eschewing costly [00:43] IsambardPrince political gimmicks, which we can ill afford and which make Canadians doubt that we recognize the gravity of the moment.

[05:25] IsambardPrince And all they talk about is tranny nutcase crap as if it were healthcare for minors. [05:25] IsambardPrince It's child abuse. [05:26] IsambardPrince They might snap out of it, but the sickos have to go to work on them when they're young. [05:26] IsambardPrince But you're right, there's definitely bad shit in a 6,000 page middle of the night bill with $900 billion in spending. [05:27] IsambardPrince Including, probably some of the garbage that got stripped out of the Christmas "Cramnibus" bill the other day. [05:27] IsambardPrince I do want to cut government spending for a number of reasons, but if it were up to me it would be to redirect into infrastructure and safety net programs. [05:28] IsambardPrince Instead of finding out what kind of sex pigeons have when they're on cocaine. [05:28] IsambardPrince And 80,000 abandoned buildings owned by various agencies. [05:28] IsambardPrince And agencies paying for all this office space and using half of it. [05:28] IsambardPrince We need to be concerned about wasteful spending and how it promotes inflation. [05:29] IsambardPrince The Democrats are pulling their usual "There's $7 trillion in that budget and if you cut $100 million out grandma will starve." bullshit. [05:29] IsambardPrince Local Democrats do this too. [05:29] IsambardPrince "We need all this spending and if you make us cut it, it'll be the police and firemen first." [05:30] IsambardPrince They figure out how to make the public suffer by shutting down visible programs that we really do need instead of the waste and bloat. [05:30] IsambardPrince Then the idea is the public will pressure the mayor, governor, whoever to sign anything to make it stop. [05:30] IsambardPrince Our last governor dug in and refused to sign the bad bills to make the state shutdown end. [05:31] IsambardPrince So the Democrats went in and made everyone suffer, they had their judges order the state to spend on their projects without a statte budget, which is illegal, but who cares. [05:31] IsambardPrince Then they finally overruled him and passed a much worse budget without him that had a record income tax hike. [05:32] IsambardPrince Then this Pritzker fellow violated the Illinois Emergency Management Act. [05:32] IsambardPrince It says, the Governor can declare an emergency and waive most laws, but it can't go on for more than 30 days without the consent of the legislature. [05:32] IsambardPrince So he kept re-issuing it 30 days at a time and became a dictator on a monthly installment plan. [05:33] IsambardPrince And nobody stopped him. [05:33] IsambardPrince Among the laws he waived, he suspended the expiration dates on gun permits, and we didn't have more gun violence during the suspension. [05:34] IsambardPrince And he waived the expiration date on driver's licenses, and we didn't have more car accidents. [05:34] IsambardPrince Almost like the state doesn't even fucking matter in most cases, it just costs money. [05:34] IsambardPrince MinceR, ^ [05:34] IsambardPrince He waived the vehicle emissions tests for over two years, and nobody died of air pollution. [05:34] IsambardPrince See how this works? [05:35] IsambardPrince The government is just there to frustrate us, control us, tax us, and kill you if it doesn't like you. [05:35] IsambardPrince And beat their chests about how you could never live without them. [05:38] IsambardPrince schestowitz[TR2], Mom was telling me about how her grandmother (paternal one) lived out in the middle of nowhere in Arkansas, pretty much in a shack on a dirt road. [05:38] IsambardPrince She said the house was elevated and you had to watch out for deadly snakes under the steps leading up to it. [05:39] IsambardPrince I said, "Well, I'm hardly a grizzled old hillbilly, but it seems like I'd probably grab a shotgun and kill the snakes."
