Average hourly wages in Canada have barely budged in 40 years - National

Because of your ignorance of economics, you don't understand how much less competitive an economy is when a union has the power to monopolize a company's hiring. The only reason unions have less power now is that manufactures have outsourced to other countries to escape them. Those that didn't outsource went bankrupt.

It's like you don't even read.

Unions don't have the power to monopolize who a company hires or fires. It's a negotiated process. In construction, for example, the company has full power to dismiss at will.

But hey, keep buying the Marxist rhetoric of the unions

There we go. Took a while but I knew the fanatic in you would come out. There's nothing marxist about it.

Like I said, you're acting like a fraud and a charlatan. I just showed you statistics showing social welfare spending has increased massively per capita, and as a percentage of GDP, over the last 40 years.

SINCE YOU ARE UNABLE TO READ AND COMPREHEND NORMAL TEXT LET ME WRITE IT LIKE THIS SO IT'S OBVIOUS THAT EITHER YOU'RE IGNORING MY POINT, OR UNABLE TO COMPREHEND IT. WELFARE PAYMENTS WENT UP BECAUSE SO MANY MORE WESTERNERS ARE IN POVERTY DUE TO GLOBALIZATION.

It's this increase in redistribution of income from successful people to unproductive people that is responsible for investors no longer investing in the West.

Yet again, unable to answer my point about how globalization has ruined good jobs here, and sends them to countries with poor employment and environmental standards.

Yet you claim we're unproductive.
