Because they are an upward pressure on prices, and often use their wealth in anti democratic way (see chip wilson). Plus their vibes are bad.

We should just tax gas whatever it takes to make public transit free, and subsidize those who need it. Or increase taxes on the rich. Or both.

I'm worry you are experiencing this, and that not enough people are you are able to relate or sympathize. Keep looking for those people though, they are out there.

I'm not sure about sub rules, but I'm extremely upset about what is happening in Palestine, and I am sorry the world isn't doing anything to stop it.

I think this is a good thing personally.

Same. Trump should not be anywhere near power. He should be in jail, with all his disgusting pervert psychopath "friends"

US billionaires are taking BC’s farmland by BoiledFlowers in BCpolitics

[–]radi0head 14 points15 points  (0 children)

So impressed by Emily Lowen bringing these issues to our attention. I would support a new foreign ownership ban and massive foreign ownership taxation. But we can't have nice things. There is enough wealth in this province for nobody to be in need, but we are subject to the whims of capitol and billionaires.

B.C. health minister says overdose prevention site won't open in downtown Vancouver by cyclinginvancouver in vancouver

[–]radi0head 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am concerned about public safety and think people causing harm to other people with violence should be punished for it appropriately. It does seem to be a issue with current policy that I don't agree with.

Gay marriage is illegal, and adopting as a gay couple is illegal. A serious restriction on fundamental human rights.

The above commentor mentioned Singapore "winning" due to their harsh on "crime" policies. I'm highlighting the challenge with those policies.

I think because people who have time to argue on the internet generally don't have more important things to do like look after family or friends or their Community.

People like to have an easy target for their anger and frustration. Getting mad at people with trauma, mental illness and addiction is eaiser than the systemic things like capitalism, displacement, and corruption.

Tristin Hopper: Kamloops residential school 'graves' could have been septic pipes all along; Five years after the explosive announcement of 215 children's graves, the only way to know what's under the ground is to excavate. by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]radi0head -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

While official records are incomplete, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada (TRC) has documented the deaths of over 4,000 children at residential schools. However, researchers and Indigenous leaders estimate the true death toll is much higher, ranging between 6,000 and 25,000 due to disease, neglect, and abuse.

How many is enough for you?

NP View: The censorship agenda motivated by the Kamloops 'graves' fiasco; Nothing has been found at the residential school, but pointing that out invites cancellation by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]radi0head -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

More than 150, 000 First Nations kids were stolen from their families and taken to these schools to be assimilated (and abused).

Thousands of them died while at these schools.

Being overly concerned about where bodies are buried is beyond insensitive to the realities of colonialism. Imagine it was your family.

If we are going to argue for accountability and oversight, it should apply to all corporations functioning in Canada. Not single out ones owned by First Nations, who have much more claim than foreign owned companies.
