"Joyless Prosperity"

I read Lorrie Goldstein's article in the Calgary Sun yesterday as well as the following Toronto Sun Editorial regarding pollster Allan Gregg comments about "joyless prosperity":

  • EDITORIAL: Still waiting for Paul to answer


  • Think about it. The liberals are running on their financial record and exclaiming how well Canada is doing. During supposedly prosperous times, our health care system is falling apart, our military has been decimated, our native reserves are in dire straits, our students are building up unprecedented debt, our waters are polluted, our utilities are through the roof, etc.

    Consider for a moment what kind of trouble we would be in if a recession takes hold in the next couple of years as predicted. Now that is scary!
