You need to own an MRI machine. That's the key.

The Premier runs a bot farm.

Smith targeting Facebook really feels like biting the hand that feeds you.

Or don’t give them the money in the first place.

I think a lot of people forget that it’s our money.

Bonus: WTF did someone post to get reprimanded from Facebook? You've got to be quite the Q-Tip to get to that badge of honour.

Danielle Smith must be a secret socialist. Because she got publicly owned.

The majority of the countries on this list would self describe as socialist.

#### it's just remarkable that some people still don't understand the difference between socialism and communism. It's totally stupid. It's like not understanding how red and orange are different colors.

Like Venezuala?

Not if you word it like that, or have that intention for the tax scheme.

"Do you support the separation of traditional and transitional modes of energy production so that both paths can be determined by market forces and not political ideology, to be governed by a baby Hitler that we will grow in a lab?"

Good idea... unfortunate baby Hitler.

So here’s the referendum question.

“Do you support an increase of 3 per cent to your income tax, and an increase of the GST to 12 per cent, if it means those in the top 10 per cent of income* see their taxes increase by 6 per cent?”

* $120k or higher

I don’t think that has a hope in hell of passing. In Canada you can’t get people who earn 120k to even admit that they are affluent.

Her being a farmer is one reason she connects so well with the rural ridings.

What's remarkable is that you don't even know enough to know how embarrassed you should be for throwing this out here. If you're interested in that line of thought, you should also consider that NAZI stands for National Socialist German Worker.

Of course, North Korea is formally titled : The DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST people's republic of Korea.

It's neither of those things either.

With strong, multi-generational farming roots in the Brooks-Medicine Hat area, it was always in her southern Alberta blood to open a restaurant in High River.

I notice you don’t make that argument for the socialism you support. You argued for get your cut of government spending around the arena.

You think so highly of yourself, you're clueless. You are basically your own circle jerk.
