The Campbell Liberal's Surplus!

So it is true! The Liberals are starting to spend money after having reminded us for three years that the cupboard is empty. It has been a real tragedy, the children and the elderly and those with disabilities have been threatened for three years with the statement, "we haven't any choice, we have to cut somewhere." Meanwhile this economic violence against segments of our population has been relentless. If people were not touched by the economic action of this government, the draconian tone of its announcements alone created insecurity and fear! It is like being told "by your parents", we don't have enough money and we may have to stop eating! Some did! I believe I heard about a few suicides because of it.

Well, I now realize, this government did not have the power to make me feel insecure or fearful. But I, for one, sure chose too! But I am choosing something different now and apparently so is the government. The government either really has had a windfall or maybe Mr Campbell wants to be elected again! It has been said, " our provincial sales tax may be lowered! (The government wouldn't be trying to buy votes would it?) I couldn't even imagine that happening!

But one thing is certain: the government is hoping we will forget the tumult of the last three years as it tries to stick the pacifier to us! But I am choosing not to believe "the guy who cried wolf." I'll be asking myself, " am I any better off now, than I was four years ago?" I'll accept the answer and follow my intuition like a shaman ought to do!

Remember to smile and be amused......we are paying the politicians, so we may as well get all the entertainment value out of the theatrics that we can.

Be Blessed!
