The price we pay for not having a genuinely conservative party in Parliament
David Warren considers the $1.4 million spent to "save" each failed auto sector job in Canada (via Kathy Shaidle).
One of the proofs that Canadians are indeed rather stupid, is that we will stand for this sort of thing: that people who themselves face penury in old age, will agree to have their pockets picked to cover $70-an-hour auto-workers. And then actually vote at the next election for the politicians who robbed them.
Best of all are "conservative" politicians who imagine $1.4m a head will be enough to swing auto worker votes away from the NDP.
