    If it's any consolation, I can assure you no one in Latin America is offended by the word "marijuana" or uses the term "Latinx". Although "X" or "@" are occasionally used as a wild card to avoid having writing two suffixes or two forms of the same word, informally and out of convenience.

    So you don't work for major businesses like banks, the auto industry or oil producers then. When poor people ask for money it's welfare and when rich people ask for money it's a wise investment to keep the economy afloat or some such garblygook.
    I'm not saying that there isn't welfare fraud but I think how that compares to the money swindled from the tax payer some so some fat cat can make forty million dollars a year probably pales in comparison. Too big to fail indeed.
    Respect my lack of authority.

    First off there is no Tag Day for you , and i donated to the Truckers, and still waiting for my tax receipt.......

    And easy way to explain something to a person like you......

    Who is the crook OR the definition of corruption......

    A person that is well off or comfortable and follows the Tax laws OR A person that was not entitled to the $2000.00 COVID monthly cheques and took them anyways Idol.....

    And that is not a trick question buddy......

    The same......

    Here is a question for debate...

    Do you think people that are rich or well off are more corrupt then people that scam and look for a free ride/handouts from the government??

    Interesting debate/conversation this will make

    PS.. And Yes i did work in a Bank as a Teller or the fancy name they gave me "CSR", and i made more money cleaning and detailing cars part time.. So after so many years working for a large cleaning company, i went on my own and started my own business......

    Then when i exhausted my opportunities soliciting or going after residential work, i went after insurance companies and got my way in to Fire, Floods, restoration work, and made a ton of money being a labourer Idol......

    So the only way i saw i could improve my life, was to find the Love of my Life have children/family and that girl just happened to be rich....

    Some people may call that "LUCKY" some may call that a "SKILL"...

    So what is your story Idol...........

    I know you don't need the COVID cheques, Did you take them??

    I didn't take any COVID relief money and a crook is a crook irregardless of social class. The argument is that there is a large difference between stealing to survive and stealing out of greed. You would probably say "laziness" but not everyone has your ambition and I don't think they deserve to live on the street because God didn't make them a certain way.

    So you think society did it??

    Funny, some you try to take off the street, yet they either don't want to, or end up back there, choice or no choice??

    I do think in any society, how it is built, there will always be people on the bottom or say classes, do you not agree??

    Well if not, what is your suggestion to the problem??

    Just to use an example of a consumer good.... Which at one time was said to be a luxury right...

    You have different manufactures of TV's today, yet most of the parts in all of them are made by the competitors...

    Example.. The screens are made by LG yet a so called prestigious manufacture like Sony uses or purchases said screens....

    My point.....

    Idol why do you think they make 65" TV's retail for $400 and also make the same size tv's for $10,000??

    Is it choice?? Demand?? Greed?? or all of the above??

    And then Contracted out to a oppressed or communist/dictator country to build?? Why is the labour market different?? Why don't they have the right to complain or protest?? What will happen to them if they do??

    Do you want a society like that here in Canada?? Will that help the poor??



    I understand your logic and sympathy for others, and i think it is great, but the difference between choice and conformity are far apart..

    Now add a dictator or government that tries to force that on you?? Well now we are talking a completely different ball game right

    The truth and no offence to you or others here...

    When you have a family, there are different types of parents Idol and this i know you will understand....

    Some live for there children and some live for themselves..

    If i was poor or struggling, my children come first to protect, not saying that i choose them over my wife, just there needs come first......

    Meaning... I will eat the Kraft macaroni , if i can only afford the one piece of meat, that will be provided for my kids...

    Do you understand what i am saying??

    I see in the Socialists party in the US..

    They want to Defund the Police yet for themselves they spend tens of thousands of dollars for security to protect themselves !!!!

    Or you get a person in charge of Climate change, that flies around in a private jet all over the world....Yet never questioned by an environmentalist??

    And if they were questioned on media, they were banned or blocked from expressing there views??!!!

    Well??

    PS...

    Here is a thought Idol.....

    We have lived our full lives in Canada right....

    Now if we moved to Russia or China or any communists/socialists country??

    Do you think we could survive or like the change??

    Like i have seen and said and spoken to people that have been lucky to get out of places like that....

    How bad it is claimed to be here in Canada, none of them want to go back to those places like that!!!!

    So the question again...

    Who is teaching the younger generation that socialism is a better way of life?? Not anyone that actually had to live in it!!!

    Can you explain it??

    The same is being successful greed?? is growing the success greed?? Is following the laws set in society greed??

    What you are saying... Stealing a chocolate bar is not greed it is necessity ?? Living on the street having a post office box and having the $2000 COVID cheques sent to you to buy drugs or booze is not stealing or greed??
    Being in jail for murder and receiving the COVID cheques and sending it to your family that don't need it nor approved to receive them, is not stealing or greed??

    So.....
