In an ever-increasing electronic world with a burgeoning bureaucracy
we thought it might be time to enlist the Internet to monitor, track
and report on issues of interest to some or most of the population.
Walkerton, the Toronto Computer Scandal and the like have shown
us that not only is there corruption at the higher levels of bureaucracy
but also at the very lowest. It seems to be a monster reporting
to no one, fraught with incompetence and incapable of delivering
even the lowest level of service without excessive costs, overruns
and complaints or threat of strike. The answer for two of our three
parties seems to be to increase your taxes, spend your dollars and
ignore the fact that there is a role for free enterprise in this
society. Out sourcing shouldn't be a question of maybe or open to
debate but a realistic check on the public system. A return to volunteerism
would be good for the country and also good for the soul. As our
great population ages nothing could be more rewarding then to simply
help others, without payment other than a smile and a thank you
at the same time helping reduce the cost of bureaucracy.
As
the dark blanket of communism is lifting from the Soviet Union and
China it appears to be descending on Europe, Canada and the free
world in general. Khrushchev told Kennedy that he would bury the
free world and with the help of Terrorism, a guise under which we
put in people controls, it would appear that his prediction will
be realized in the not too distant future. He and other tyrants
in history understood that an armed, free people could never be
enslaved, as do the majority of those hiding behind the mask of
socialism. He seems to also have understood that socialist states
would shed the weight of totalitarianism and the free would inherit
the coat.
Look
around, hiring criteria has become one of quota rather than competence,
tax systems have become a job creation based vote purchasing system
rather than service oriented infrastructure delivery and our daily
lives have become one of fear rather than freedom. Giving out the
facts, verbally or in writing, is not a hate crime or act of sedition,
preying on the poor and disadvantaged is. A free society cannot
be governed by fear or the constant threat of shutting down essential
services, both are inexcusable. We seem to be in denial, but the
end of denial is reality and reality is better faced sooner rather
than later.
