...a good many Countries are Socialist,...incl. the USA with its myriad of protective and generous social and welfare policies. The difference is that our population in Canada has perceived their Gov'ts as being their income and benefit generator....whereas our Cousins on Stateside have a broad distrust of anything Government, and in fact trust the Corporate structure more than their Politicians. Until our Governments in Canada can no longer " blackmail" the population for support with overly generous social programs, we will always be in 2nd or even now possibly 3rd place in Economic standing to the USA and other business-friendly jurisdictions. It is a mistake to just simply fold-up and " get used to It"...some of us like to set our own destiny... and venting our frustration is welcomed by those who actually question the direction our Country is going. Keep questioning, and be sure to yearn for more out of Life, than just the Government basics!
