Physical restraint - what is it?

 Prior to the speech from the throne the Conservative Party of Canada were calling for "physical restraint" in the new budget.

What does that mean to a conservative? Reducing spending. making cuts to essential services, reducing spending to the needy and the handicapped.

But beyond that it means increasing spending top corporations.... why? Because conservatives are indebted to the corporate world, they are corporate managed. It is never about saving the voter money it is all about feeding the rich.

We watched the actions of premiers in Alberta and Ontario in the past as they attempted to destroy medicare, long term care homes and the sell off of asseys. We watched as Stephen Harper tried to futher destroy medicare and transfer payments to the Provinces.

That is physical restraint, that is neo-liberalism.

But worse than tightening spending the conservative movement of today wants to, at least are trying to lower the education standards and intellectual level of citizens THAT in it self should tell you how inept they are to think education equals IQ when in fact the intellectual quotient is NOT a function of education.

Thursday's Ride - 1955 Packard Caribbean - Jay Leno’s Garage

The Grand Old Party: from comassionate to pure evil in 136 years.

 


Yes America this was the start of the GOP compassionate and caring and then came neo-liberalism and the decline of civility, honesty and compassion for their fellow American.

Today, under Donald Trump's corrupt guidance, the GOP turns a blind and evil eye allowing abuses of Justice, murder in the streets, innocent children to be caged, women sterilized against their will, abuse of gays and visible minorities and so on..

The country is out of control and it's government, those elected to protect society have abandoned the people in favour of corporations, the wealthy and debauchery.... the swamp Trump promised to empty is now overflowing with the evil and vile conservative with a dash of evangelical thrown in to add some spice.

Yup they support their own misery through their ignorance

 


The shear stupid of the GOP supporter

Wednesday's Ride - Car Commercials from the 1950's

When you are an asshole like Doug Ford is you screw the public where they can't see it coming - behind closed doors

 

Ford’s public long-term care inquiry turns out to be private in back rooms


So much for Premier Doug Ford’s promise that a government-appointed commission looking into COVID-19’s devastating impact in long term care homes would be as good as, and quicker, than an actual public inquiry.

“There will be public hearings,” Ford pledged. “They will call witnesses.”

Ford’s long term care minister, Dr. Merrilee Fullerton, repeatedly assured the families of more than 1,850 LTC residents and eight staff who died from the coronavirus that the commission would hold public hearings, that their voices would be heard.
