Fair Share??

You always have response...but you never comment on the point!!

Which is....
"...those good paying, oil and gas sector jobs are an indirect kind of "royalty"! RIGHT!

You should be thankful that monies are paid into the economy through industry...where the trickle down impact has been significant, and not through the government.

In Saskatchewan, the NDP, after fifty years finally appear to have seen the light...or is it because the death of their regime is at hand. The prosperity of Alberta can no longer be ignored. It is where our kids work, where the heath care system is fifteen years ahead of ours. Where the roads are in far better shape. Where the taxes are lower…all of them!!

What defines you as a socialist Willagrow is the fact that you have such faith in government...especially an interventionist government...a "conservative" government...led by a pink Tory!! That says it all.

You dismiss the writers of every article I post yet I suspect they are much more attuned to the ramifications of the actions of your premier who is more interested in "governing" that getting a mandate from the people!!! Some democrat!

Wilagro
If you have to resort to making crude and vulgar permutations of my posting name then I think you are a poor excuse for a human being. It shows your level of intelligence.

[wilagro]

Oh sorry "spudchucker", my mistake. Guess I should have checked back to your original posting.

ivbinconned: Thank goodness Stelmach is a "pink" Tory. About time we had a Premier interested in "governing" instead of "selling" us out to the lowest bidder.

I was thinking of retiring (again), to Saskatchewan...what area would you recommend? Seems like a nice province with cheaper car insurance rates and real estate values not driven sky-high because of inflationary pressures as in Alberta. High-speed internet to most good sized towns and cities would be nice too.

Apology accepted

[ivbinconned]

Oh you should move as close to the government tit as possible...Regina.

Come on over and you will find very high real-estate prices here too.
But beware...you seem to be oblivious of a few things....in 2002 more than 40 percent of Saskatchewan’s budget was not accounted for in the main books, the provincial budget!! Enron and World Com have nothing on these NDP bums! And they get a free ride from the leftist media.

As for cheap Auto insurance...think again! You get what you pay for. The average claim payout in Saskatchewan is $4135 compared to $11,895 in Alberta. Cheap? Right...cheap coverage...with high deductable!

SGI is the only Government insurance Crown on the planet that has a salvage division!!! It makes millions only because it gets first crack at salvage for practically nothing, freezing out the private sector.

Just imaging if on your farm...all you inputs were free!!! You would look like a genius.

Makes it easy to fool the gullible.

Ivbc I see you are still at it, good for you .Do you share your lease land ? Do you take only what you need from the sale of your produce or do you try to get the most you can in the way of prices is that not ENVY or Goudging , I wish you would get a new teacher as it gets tireing to hear the same old tune all the time.

Spending money is probably not the best definition of a capitalist.

Wanting to keep people under government control is not a capitalist ideal.

Not allowing individuals to make their own choices, succeed or fail, would not be the choice of a capitalist.

Advocating for higher taxes from higher wage earners to give to those that don't feel like working would not be a good definition of a capitalist.

Cheering on governments that grab control of as much as they can would probably not be considered proper by a capitalist.

[ivbinconned]

Actually horse I’m in agriculture...I am told what I get paid!!

As for the crown land...my role is not much different than government employees that take care of the provincial parks...only they charge me for taking care of the land!!

I think I should be paid for being the care taker as there is no “profit” for what we produce off of it.

So all good capitalists are now complaining, because the province of AB is now taking advantage of them, with a new unfair oil & gas royalty scheme. Good capitalists love paying high fuel prices at the pump, love getting the fram fuel bills, simply love the multinational companies that are taking advantage of them. It appears that all good capitalists are simply very stupid people. Ever talked with oil & gas people, most are goofs, rich goofs, but goofs at the best of times! Look at the vehicles and toys they buy with their cash, silly, silly people. Wait till the bubble busts, then snivelling and whinning starts, they as a group are far louder than framers.
