Those who demand the fruit of others effort must be awfully happy their chief care-givers are poised to win
another election. Even more thrilling is allowed ignorance that bonds
will sell and we can simply rack up the debt. Sadly, Liberals use duplicitous
words like "investment" which is code for "higher debt to GDP
ratio"...and or for those who are not economically inclined: "we are
turning into Greece". The purpose of this note is to communicate the
unintended consequences of voting Liberal. Since I recognize a direct
blog from a non-influential blogger has limited to no sway, I will take the
angle of a business owner who is fighting for his (and his employees) better
future, and is exasperated at the absurd degree of ignorance on economics with
the vast majority of liberal voters (especially on twitter, where most are
thankful their rants are capped at an entire 140 characters)
1.
The best predictor of
the future patterns and habits can often be determined by past behavior.
Therefore,
"mistakes" will continue to be the quoted vibrato of an actual
"scandal" right from liberal mouths. If I tried 1/10 of the
corrupt, dishonest behavior of the Liberals, I would be fired and instantly be
forced to lay off 25 people...let alone broadcasting my lack of integrity with
the catch phrase "mistakes". Owning up is: 1. being honest. 2.
Articulating the problem(s) 3. Giving real solutions and root cause and 4.
demonstrating over time how you changed. Any other approach is playing Russian
roulette (obviously politics excluded). Furthermore, on the topic of
words; Ms. Wynne says about the gas plant scandal, "I take full
responsibility...". Ya, right. In the real world, when I take full
responsibility I absorb the FULL COST of my mistake. (Creates a real incentive
to fix my mistake, let me tell you...). Did she write a cheque for 1.1
billion over the gas plant scandal? So ya, she did NOT take "full
responsibility". Expect this pattern to continue: corrupt politics through
bad judgments with inept leaders resulting in debt and pain for those they
touch...with NO accountability.. In politics, you get to use bull crap
words to sorta speak your mind. Hey Ontario, you are stamping this pattern
of behavior. I predict: more scandals. More shifting of blame. More "code words" to obfuscate how
your tax dollars turned into waste.
2. Selfishness and
coveting are at the root of the Liberal vote.
They want what you earned.
Period. They get it legally through changing laws. The selfish
extractors of your wealth do this by IGNORING scandals, corrupt politics and
incompetent leaders and place higher weight on taking your money. When
you run out of money: no problem...that's what the debt is for. From $130
billion when they came in...to $290 billion where we stand now...you have an
EXCELLENT predictor of the future based on past behavior. Look to Greece and
the Liberals for a legitimate prediction of the future. Ontario will not
give up its "right" to suck off the government without a fight. In
Greece it took riots...and they still lost. You think a soft spoken Tim Hudak
is going to arrest a populate bent of wanting what others earned? I
predict: taxes, debt and laws will be instruments in the next 4 years for the
emboldened Liberals to pillage wealth and further destroy Ontario. I
predict a solid: $340 billion of debt by 2018. We will be damaged from
another term. They do not have the skills or knowledge to stop this train-wreck
and the Ontario voters FAILED to see this coming. Hold me accountable to
this. It's in print. Please note, I also predict endless excuses as to why it's
all happening and not their fault.. I also predict they will not anticipate a ballooning
debt and deteriorating manufacturing industry, but react when it does...as
though they knew it all along: all part of the ebb and flow of our great
province. Ontario, you are warned. We are opening the door to Greece like
damage. The other provinces will bail us out to a degree, but not at the rate
the carnage is occurring. The basis of this business point is clear and
it points to why manufacturing has suffered in this province. In the real
world, "innovation", "results", "change",
"accountability" are vital attitudes for survival and growth.
Improving your service is critical to reduce cost and maintain profits.
These realities are exempt with liberal voters and politics: twitter says
so. Since many fail to grasp this concept, they are left voting based on the
absence of this work-ethic and can therefore "vote in" a government
that stylistically adheres to a deplorable view of how the economy ought to
work. Once the ability for Ontario to borrow balloon’s; suddenly Ontario will
get very mad.
When Wynne says "investment" do you
hear her say, "by the way, this investment costs money and it will be paid
for by higher debt"? Not a chance. You would be an idiot for thinking of
consequences. It's all about priorities for you...and then more debt for your
kids: you selfish voter. In business, you get your butt royally kicked when you
do not take present choices into consideration when thinking of the future
(I learned the hard way). In politics if you vote for a social
welfare group that ignores debt and makes fun of the fiscally conservative,
eventually things will get ugly ($290 billion AND GROWING!) I predict VERY
hard choices within 6 years from now. Draconian cuts will happen. Manufacturing
will continue to erode. Our level of debt to GDP will continue to increase
as Ontario cannot sustain this rate of spending without damage to our credit,
capacity to borrow and/or interest rates.
The Liberals are in bed with Unions so the cards have been played, and
the Liberals “plan” is a major bluffing session. The course is set: scandals,
blame, hiding, spending and taxing are the established future patterns.
Try those themes in business, or your family and see how you do.
Why do we make exceptions for politics?
Ontario, a Liberal
vote will eventually result in a series of denigrating downgrades to our most systemic pillars holding up our
once great province. Today, bonds will
sell. However, 4 years from now it won't
be Tim Hudak "scaring" Ontario with 100 000 responsible layoffs over
time...it will be unsold bonds, higher interest rates and forced layoffs...and the evil corporations will not be there to bail you out. It's
in the cards; the ground work has been proposed and Ontario is about to give
the Liberals a stamp of approval. Business has given us the clues as to what
will happen in the future political realm with this continued Liberal
philosophy. Please consider it is better to take heed then the fat of
rams.
