We will prosper too after we dump Trudeau.
Speaking of our dapper dictator, he took his jet to a ski resort in BC over the holidays. Meanwhile, our annual carbon tax increase is coming up.
Socialism fails because you run out of other people's money. Capitalism wins because the people are allowed to keep their money.

Ya well, as long as you do not yank the social safety net out from folks who worked all their lives for it.

I'm not against a social safety net. I'm against taxing the successful in order to reward the lazy.

Until Capitalism gets a finite number of masters who incorporate socialism in ways they can monopolize from it.
There's little difference between capitalism and socialism if there is no truly free market and regulatory freedom underpinning the society.

Monopolized capitalism that uses politicians to eliminate competition is not free enterprise. We know all about this disingenuous form of "capitalism" in Canada.

Their pay is called alimony.

If there is slavery going on, then it has to be stopped.

Of course housewives get paid. All they gotta do is keep the house, watch the younglings and cook good food and then the husband keeps coming home.
Ain't that "payment?"
:)

You're a true blue misogynistic pig.
I admire you for that.

Thank you, sir. Mansplaining stuff like this to bitches can be quite rewarding, especially when you get the eye-rolls and start a womanly pratternalia.

I am kind of a house husband now. I have income from the farm and other sources, but I do not leave the farm to earn money anymore.
Are you saying the old lady should pay me for doing work on the house and the quonsets and looking after her horse. I will pass that thought along to her and see if she agrees with you. :crampe:

^This. Any leftie welfare basket case who pretends otherwise would do well to remember that even your average San Franciscan democrat does not regard housing as a basic human right. See Nancy Pelosi's district for further details.
A roof over your head is something you must earn, be it through cash or kind. If any woman feels they are being hard done by, let them go out and put in the hard yards earning the cash for the upkeep while the husband plays homemaker. The results will suck of course; evolutionarily speaking it was men that provided the resources and the women who kept the nest running shipshape, but you cannot tell your average feminazi welfare sponge this. They have been brainwashed into the belief they deserve all of the "perks" with none of the responsibilities; the latter is to be shouldered by a slave male class, because that's what the cultural marxists tell them.
This is of course why society is failing and increasing amounts of women are finding themselves dying eggless, childless and husbandless.
