Great Right North: Cato Institute

0 votes

Too often in the United States, Democrats reject cuts in taxes and spending because they consider them Republican causes. Yet in Canada, center-left governments implemented many of the reforms that made these impressive numbers possible. Perhaps we have something to learn from those "socialists" to the north.

Cato is controlled opposition...but this article makes many good points.

for example - Debt: The Canadian government cut its debt from 71 percent of GDP in 1995 to 32 percent in 2008. Under President Obama's budget plan, U.S. federal public debt will jump from 41 percent of GDP in 2008 to more than 60 percent next year.

"How can we justify to the unemployed and underemployed in the United States the incredible cost of maintaining a global empire?" - Dr. Ron Paul

You're right Legalize:

I've been "on the horse" for 20 plus years.

I've seen movement after movement get hijacked.

These people put out Ron Paul esque reports then right before the ballot-box-stuffing they come out in favor of War on Terror or Foreign Military Expansionism.

Like Beck will do -- Now it's popular to "act" conservative.

The 912 Project (Beck's Baby) -- What a joke!!

No we must stop abdicating -- It's time for Counter-Economics -- No more voting away our self-rule (begging to have it returned).

You are right though -- there are good stats in there. Good Digg
