The truth behind those $#@*!# gas prices

I toatlly agree, and if you were to ask anyone (other than a politician) what the word democray means I'm positive that no one will really know how to explain it...let's face it, the government should be afraid of it's people not the other way around. Realistically for anyone to enter the field of politics you can't make a move unless you represent one side of industry or the other...you either support the lobbyists or you support the corporations...then there are all the beauraucrats that need to duck and dodge...what a mess! This is why it takes forever to get anything passed in either the House of Commons or Parliament. And if the Government is too scared to handle a specific bill they pass it on to the Supreme Court to look at...DUH!!! Have you not seen what the heck these guy's have been passing as law over the last 10 years? Damn, no wonder we're so screwed up it's the blind leading the blind...or even better they put an issue or bill on the back burner and let the next administration deal with it...pass the proverbial buck! If the US or Canada were a country in Europe the citizens would have revolted and kicked the currupt bunch out office and set em on fire! No wonder you guy's have the malitia men still there in the US, up here in Canada the Gov't is doing everything they can to take the power away from it's citizens thus making them more submissive and easier to manipulate, energy/labor/business taxes/cost of living...etc are going through the roof and then they give big tax breaks to large companies that take their businesses overseas and import back to you stealing you blind. World market and economy? Does sweet FA for me and my company except now I don't compete with other provinces or states I need to compete with China, Viet Nam, Tiawan, Africa, Pakistan, India...etc. Have you ever heard of workers comp, healthcare, unemployment insur, pension plans, dental plans, human rights...etc in any of these countries and said to yourself "damn wish I lived there"...or better yet, move to their country and try to get something changed in their culture to better represent you...it will never happen.
