At least we now know what the Greek problem really is. Right wing pundit, Angelo Perischilli (Toronto Star) assigns the blame to unscrupulous politicians who buy votes by allowing greedy unions to think they are entitled to whatever they want (Toronto Star, 9/May/2010). No mention of the capitalists who have millions, live like kings, and do none
of the work at all.
of the work at all.
Back to the future as we close in on 1984. Britain has been experimenting with chips on garbage cans to monitor several aspects of waste such as weight so they can, presumably, charge more. Nothing so underhanded here – in Northumberland County, Ontario, on top of high house taxes, we have to attach a $3 sticker to every bag to ensure pick-up. Not surprisingly, there is an increase in roadside garbage bags. The squeeze to save the capitalist class some money continues in every corner of our lives.
