Yes, it's happening. But not here in this province of New Brunswick. In their recent provincial election, voters felt the real, gut issues were a need to improve ambulance services and to send French and English children to school in the same busses.
Oh, yeah, the biggest winner was the Conservative leader who felt we really, really need to develop more fossil fuels.

The biggest problem facing New Brunswick, by far, is its domination by its wealthiest family. But that wasn't an election issue at all.

Wake up, New Brunswick. That's far the biggest issue you have to deal with.

The U.S. is very, very concerned that it's very good friend Saudi Arabia may have tortured and murdered a journalist.

In the last 20 years, the U.S. has killed at least 11 million people, the majority quite innocent. In Iraq, it murdered half a million children. It is now starving millions of children to death in Yemen. It has done this killing in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Guatemala and many other unnamed countries that it bombs with drones. All of these wars and killings were illegal.
But, oh, Trump is terribly, terrible concerned.

We need a good, easy-to-read book on the history of capitalism. We are watching, in today's world, it's murderous rages which, historically, far outclass Hitler's Germany.
The British Empire was ruled by capitalists. And to please them, British governments murdered over 350 million people. (Yes. That's what God bless the King was really all about. That's what patriotism was really all about.) That's what world wars one and two were really about. That's what some 70 American wars since 1945 have been about.
Capitalism thrives on murder and plunder. Capitalism doesn't give a damn if climate change is going to destroy it. Capitalism doesn't live for the future. It lives for itself and it lives for now. Either we control it or it destroys us - soon.
Think of that the next time you read a propaganda column by your local chamber of commerce.

In the triumph of 1945, the U.S. was the master of the world. But that was a long time ago. Russia, China, India, with some cooperation from Europe, are bringing an end to American dominance. This has not changed the reality that no major war is winnable by anybody. But the U.S., as the fading power, seems to be the one eager for a major war.

Congo is rich in minerals but, under capitalist rule, the people of Congo don't see much of that wealth. This rule by capitalism has been going on for some 150 years of cheap labour, torture, mass murder and starvation. (though it almost never reached our news media.)

You'll have to scroll down a half page to this picture of a graveyard in Switzerland. I thought it a very moving one. This is a picture of a Jewish graveyard in one of only two villages Swiss Jews, for centuries, were allowed to live in.
And saddening though it is, it's jarring to realize that this has led us to Netanyahu and modern Israel.

And what can I say about our Brunswick News in New Brunswick and our every own, local Moncton Times and Transcript? What is it's big news story of the day? In this world of Israelis killing unarmed Palestinians, of the U.S. flirting with war with China, - and possibly with Russia in the middle east - and Iran...?
The big word story that YOU need to know is that Meghan and Prince Harry are expecting. And a supplemental story that the baby may not automatically become a prince or princess. (I was worried about that.)
Yes. The big story is about two of the most expensive and most useless people in the world.
Syria? Yemen? China? Venezuela? Never heard of them. And that's it for world news.
Local news? Once you get past the big stories of cannabis stores opening, and a man being charged with stealing a motorcycle, you're left with a shocker. New Brunswick businesses pay the highest taxes in Canada. Yes. That's what the editorial says.
Sorry, ms. or mr. editorial hack, but it is surely not possible that you are ignorant of the fact that big business in New Brunswick doesn't pay ANY taxes. (See my report above on this.) Is it possible the editorial writer didn't know this?
I really don't see how it is possible for any journalist not to know this. This is simply standard irving news lack of any journalistic standards whatever. It lies. And it stops lying only to be trivial. Indeed, in all of this paper there is nothing really worth reading. That's why the Conservative and Liberal parties can get by with no significant policies on anything. That's why so many voters think the crucial issue is making French and English students ride in the same busses. That's why this is a nineteenth century province slipping back into the eighteenth.
Here is a province routinely being sprayed by poisons. But the two major parties don't even mention it. Here is a province in which wealth is being moved from everybody else and shovelled into the pockets of the very rich. And nobody cares.
Here is a province governed by one man - and governed entirely to benefit himself.
Grow up, New Brunswick. Or get ready for one hell of a crash.
