Let's be frank, without some teachers, nurses, doctor's and other 'economic parasites' we'd have a lot fewer geo's, engineers and even rig-pigs.
What we are arguing is really about the optimum blend between these two types of workers and is what is best for an alberta citizen the same as what is best for a shareholder.

I think you've got your economic terms mixed up. You're confusing 'value' with 'cost.'
These are not the same things.
