Uprisings

Def:

A collective sanpping.

It's irrelevant, largely I reckon, who is to blame whenever citizens revolt. It just needs to be done. When people at the bottom are squeezed they will take to the streets as we're seeing in North Africa. A purge ensues and what happens after that just happens.

We're seeing glimpses of it in the U.S. and I can almost be sure it will come to Canada. You can just feel people are increasingly frustrated.

As for small businesses, I have no clue how they survive with all the incredibly expensive social costs and taxes weighing down on them.

Now I know why, on my daycare adventure, we don't have a vibrant and creative entrepreneurial class. People make the calculation and realize it's tough enough to launch a business - given the current saturated corporate set up and competition - with the state and its numerous departments each with its hands in your pocket. It's not worth the head ache to a potential entrepreneur.

Or you have to be pragmatic and learn to play along. Just smile and say, "Oui, Mr. Ministere, or "Mrs. CSST."

Just be nice, get a subsidy if you can and play within the rules they've created.
