the people on welfare get more than the people working for minimum wage, and there is always more needed.

It's your duty to make sure that the poor are comfortable in their poverty, you ungreatful wretch!

Canadians just want to have fun

They are not worried about fidels health, and you can bet they're not worried about this, or this either.

From the Toronto Sun:

Toronto travel agents say winter-weary Canadians are flocking to Cuba in record numbers for fun in the sun without any concern about the health of fidel castro.

There is a huge demand for Cuba," Cathy Phoenix, of Gerrard Travel, said. "There has been no comment on the politics by our customers."

Phoenix, and others in the travel industry, said vacationers aren't asking if Castro is alive or what will happen to Cubans when he dies.

The agents said no one has cancelled trips to the island due to political incertainity.

"People want to go and have fun under the sun," she said.

Poverty industry. We have that here too. Able bodied men stand on the corner with a sign "I'm hungry."

Maybe, but it's big business.
