Avi Lewis: Does creating more wealth in Canada trickle down to actually benefit all of us? We've been pursuing this fairy tale since Brian Mulroney in the 1980s. It has never worked.

A corporation can announce record profits, fire 5,000 workers, and get applauded for efficiency.
A cashier asks for another $2 an hour and suddenly every economist on television is worried about inflation.
What a fucking joke.

Reminds me of when Democrats had a super majority under Obama and all they did was destroy Libya.
