So you think the set up we have today is good?

Jim,

Socialism doesn't work, has not ever worked, and will never work for the every reasons you have pointed out in your previous emails.? Anytime you get the government involved in anything, corruption causes things to go to hell.? Government is the biggest source of corruption in society.? It surpasses individuals, businesses, and anything else you can name.? God save us from more big government.? I'll take big business corruption any day compare to big government corruption.? We elect people who think they know what is right for you.? They end up knowing what is right for them.

?

The US had a famous cowboy philosopher back in the 1920's by the name of Will Rogers.? He was a Democrat and probably some what of a socialist, but one of his most famous quotes was " The people elected Calvin Coolidge president.? He didn't do much, but that's what the people wanted."? I think that's what the people in the US want today.? A president and congress that won't do much. Stop trying to fix things and just leave us along!!!!!

### What's wrong with Socialism ?? Works here. What needs to

be gov't run is stuff like medical/dental/ residential

water/commercial AC power production/ car insurance/ Ferry sytems,

etc. At least that's our idea of.."socilism" You privatize any

of that just mentioned... and prices skyrocket.. and standards drop.

## case in point.... in VE6 land... they had this brilliant idea

they would privatize.. and sell off ALL AC power production. The

idea was that private co's would invest Billions in new power

production. They were gonna chop it up into 8-10 pieces. When

only 4-5 co's showed up... they were surprised... and proceeded

to divvy up the province of alberta into North south east west.

The co's are real happy now. NONE of em compete with each

other... since they have their own turf. None of em are the

slighest bit interested in spending Billions to generate new AC

power. [the provincial gov't there thought with some co spending

billions on new power... rates would...drop]. Instead... there

was no increase in production at all.... rates went up as much as

450 % !!

### In the UK... they did the same thing with their various water

supply's for residential water. Their water rates have gone up

400 % ! They also privatized the construction of new hospital

facilities.... now the consumer is paying through the nose for it.

### cheap electric/water rates means a better economy. You start

paying sky high rates... and the one of 2 things happen.... either

increased production costs get passed onto the consumer... or co XXX

sells up... and moves. In VE6 land... they had foundries that had

been there a long time... and couldn't compete with the province of

manitoba [VE4 land].... due to the huge difference in electrical

rates. The foundries in VE6 land moved to VE4 land.

## If u wanna pay retail + 100%... go for it. Most of us like the

wholesale rate.

later... Jim VE7RF
