Reading bits of Robert Samuelson's OpEd piece this morning. Naturally he is against any form of what he calls entitlements. So he starts comparing the U.S. France and Germany as to what percent of the GDP they represent in each country and how unsustainable it is. Strange that all the bleeding economists never compare against Canada. Unless things have changed drastically they look after their people pretty well. Their economy must be chugging along quite well judging by the $CDN value. Guess they are just smarter than the rest of the world.
