I think the Canadian government did the right thing by simply creating the 400 million they needed. Much more honest than "borrowing" the funds, and dumpling the debt on the grandchildren -- what the heck, let 'em deal with it, and by then we may be dead anyway. I'm not worried about private debt - if it implodes, assets will change hands at much lower prices, and life will go on. It's the public debt that is the danger. Politicians will do absolutely anything to protect their power and reputations - if they have to, they'll provoke wars. And I think if you ask them who the hijackers are, they'll tell you it's the special interest politicians and the Globalists: Those who talk down to them who are destroying their culture, and those who are destroying the economy where they live. All of them are no good SOBs. I'm sure many politicians and gov bureaucrats are - individually - well meaning, wonderful people -- but as a group, all of them are "special interest" - their own. You mentioned the Tea Party - here is the most important point of who they are -- ""The Tea Party generally focuses on a significant reduction in the size and scope of the government."" (Wiki). That's why the "bipartisan" establishments hate their guts - and did what they could to destroy them. Ronald Reagan puts it very succinctly (in this 45 second clip; there are longer versions): m.youtube.com
