yes, yes, I was ranting a bit yesterday....but hey ...it's my blog and I can rant if I want to.
So, today is a new day and I am still processing this new "reality" that is afoot in my beloved country.
Is capitalism going to die in Ontario for the next 18 months?
Are all kids in Ontario going to learn online for the next 18 months?
Are all government and health care workers going to get paid even if the institutions they work for are shut down for the same 18 months?
I notice that most, if not all Ontario local parks and national parks are closing. Are all those parks and rec employees going to be paid while the parks are shut down?
Is the government going to turn all these fine hard working Ontarians into "government handout beggars"?
The conclusion I came to yesterday, is that I would profoundly trust the politicians and health "experts" who are shutting down workers and businesses in this province if they Offered to do this one thing....WHAT ONE THING? If they offered to go without out pay until every single business was allowed to reopen in Ontario. Why? Because only then would they begin to feel the same sense of dread that the rest of Ontarians feel when faced with this wacky provincial shut down that is being forced upon us.
Yes, that is ALL that it would take to even out the playing field. You wanna shut down capitalism in Ontario for the next 18 months?? Well, go right ahead, BUT then you must surrender your government and/or health "expert" paychque until we as a whole province re-open for business.
You politicians and health "experts" can live off your investments and savings or wind up accepting government handouts in the same manner that you are telling the rest of Ontario to do.
The CERB pays 2000 cdn dollars per month to those who lost their employment due to the virus.
That money is not a gift. It is an apology.
Why do people apologize? Because they know that they are doing something that is going to hurt....a lot of people.
Peace,
C.
