Is anyone else concerned that in the middle of an economic lockdown when productivity is at an all time low we are seeing people pay more than ever for houses?!
Lending rates are artificially low. Central banks are printing money at an astounding rate. Debt at all levels is increasing exponentially. And people are paying more than ever for houses!
This is not a good sign.
Edit: I’m calling it now. When the monetary and real estate bubble burst Keynesians will blame the “free market” and demand mOar GuBMinT.
An "illuminating" discussion found at 'Libertarian Party of Canada' on Facebook... see video from December 23, 2020 at https://www.facebook.com/libertarianCDN
Tune in to the Facebook page for the Libertarian Party of Canada where you'll find party leader Tim Moen and Brandon Kirby on December 23rd, 2020 discuss many interesting issues with many expletives, most appropriate during the covidshitshow:
There's a horrifying reality to the Bank of Canada telling us that inflation is under 2%. It's that we know they're being dishonest. Housing/rent prices are surging to 10%, CAD-to-gold is at 10%, power and grocery bills are sky high, and we have individuals in charge of the monetary supply that know nothing about monetary supply. People are hurting, our cost of living has never been higher, and we're being lied to saying everything is ok.
Here are my list of grievances for this year's Festivus:
1) Canada is allowing sex trafficking and doing jack shit to combat the money laundering that attracts it.
2) Canada is complicit in the genocide in North Yemen, and actually negotiating trade deals with the people carrying it out, knowing full well they fund terrorists trying to kill us.
3) Debt, this is the worst year on record for debt. We're going to wind up like Greece where they work 12-14 hour days 6-7 days each week just to feed our families.
4) Trudeau is attempting to ban our means of self-defence despite evidence that it won't diminish gun violence.
5) COVID-19 - this thing has been a real pain in the ass. Stop eating exotic animals, you're not sophisticated and cultured by doing it.
Our government has spent $4 billion on housing initiatives for the homeless. We currently have 30,000 homeless in Canada. If we bought 5 bedroom houses to house all of them, it would only cost $1.2 billion. Instead, we wind up paying government bureaucrats billions of dollars and accomplishing nothing to reduce homelessness, and sit around using empty buzzwords like 'stakeholders' 50 times in hopes that it makes them sound intelligent. Our politicians keep talking about the right to housing. Better than the right to a house is an actual house. We need to eliminate mortgage regulations that prevent us from buying homes and building homes; thereby driving down the cost of housing.
The Libertarian Party of Canada founds its policy on respect – respect for the person and property of our fellow citizen. We believe that if government’s role were limited to upholding this respect, our natural tendency to fulfill our needs at the least cost would ensure an ever-increasing quality of life and the satisfaction derived from helping others would ensure social harmony.
Statement of Principles
We, the members of the Libertarian Party of Canada, support the following principles:
I. Each individual has the right to his or her own life, and this right is the source of all other rights.
II. Property rights are essential to the maintenance of those rights.
III. In order that these rights be respected, it is essential that no individual or group initiate the use of force or fraud against any other.
IV. In order to bar the use of force or fraud from social relationships and to place the use of retaliatory force under objective control, human society requires an institution charged with the task of protecting individual rights under an objective code of rules. This is the basic task, and the only moral justification for, government.
V. The only proper functions of government whose powers must be constitutionally limited, are:
settling, according to objective laws, disputes among individuals, where private, voluntary arbitration has failed;
providing protection from criminals;
providing protection from foreign invaders.
VI. As a consequence of all the above, every individual — as long as he or she respects the rights of others — has the right to live as he or she alone sees fit, as a free trader in a free market.
Do you feel comfortable sending your kids back to government run indoctrination camps designed in Prussia to create conformity and obedience and stifle free thought so that both their parents can be milked of their earnings like tax livestock?
