Yeah, I don’t care about the labels as much as they have higher taxes and good social programs (education in particular).

 

The “rich get richer” model doesn’t leave much after a certain point.  When do people on the bottom say enough is enough?  I certainly wouldn’t take it.  

But that's what you've been arguing about for the last 3 pages in a GDT, the label of canada being called socialist.  People often get confused in thinking having some social programs defines a country as a socialist country, which is not the case.  Even that clown Bernie sanders doesn't have a clue and that's why the prime minister of Denmark came out to clear that misunderstanding..  

 

“A society that puts equality before freedom will get neither. A society that puts freedom before equality will get a high degree of both.”

Whatever.  Here’s what’s I was talking about:

 

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_model

 

“This includes a combination of free market capitalism with a comprehensive welfare state and collective bargaining at the national level with a high percentage of workers belonging to a labour union;[4] and state provision of free education and free healthcare as well as generous, guaranteed pension payments for retirees funded by taxation.”

 

Call it what you want, I like it.

Watched the game it was ok..i know its all mean nothing game but i decided to check it out fo st pattys day...the crowd was ok and loud..now scouting the teams i noticed kane was ok but im glad canucks did not go for him..he is up and down in his plays and kind of lazy i thought....the best canuck i vsawout there was stretcher and beige on defence..tanec elder were very good too along with del motto having an ok game...that Leipsic kid is a keeper he blocks shots he is shift and sees the ice....id like to see markstr0m get his calm cool style back..he seem to over play at times but still very quick..just needs to slow down in a way...goldobon i think can be a good player but needs  to change his game and efforts...id like to see him drive the net more cause he has the size and wheels..id like him to get more aggressive at times too in the corners.

If he has changed and matured then I agree I’m just wary of him. If he comes in supports Bo doesn’t hit women and becomes a good teammate I’m all for it.

OMG women should not be on the ice at all.

 

 

ever.

I'm curious to know your age.  No disrespect or sarcasm meant in any way.  Just my observation that sometimes age plays into opinion.  Same question for everyone really.

Every f@_#+@ time against the sharks the refs are absolute sh!t. EVERY F+#&@ TIME!!

thats true, thats one of the worst managed 3rd periods I've seen in a long time, watching it live at the game was infuriating. My wife started the "ref you suck" chant in our area a couple of times she was so mad ::D She's a keeper.

Sure sounds like a keeper :lol: fricking Dan O'Halloran or whatever his name is. Canucks as a club should request a different ref to work their games. Its unfricking believable how transparently biased he is.

Ridiculous... We were down a goal and they were calling everything in the 2nd. What the hell changed in the third?? Home team down by one in the third, the sharks take 3 glaringly obvious penalties after they get hemmed in their end. Why the F wouldn't you call ANY OF THE PENALTIES. I'm still fricking furious about it.

We were about 15~20 rows from the dohyo..although my wife's sister said she saw us a few times today, as cameras panned around the crowd.

 

Really enjoyable event. About as unique a thing as you'll see.

Good thing...would not want you falling into a large crack or anything like that at ringside.:)
