Socialist Alberta Premier Jason Kenney charges CCA Logistics Ltd with Price Gouging, hey this probably wouldn’t exist if Governments didn’t incentivize WELFARE – May 8, 2020,
When I’m educating my children about economics, I have to tell them that Government people are idiots, I highly recommend that if you’re a fiscally responsible adult, educate your children that politicians are salesmen and will say anything to get a vote.
Why I’m a huge fan of Price Gouging during times of crisis!
In a market economy, most citizens of the country don’t need the government to set prices because if you’re a productive person, you’re supposed to know instinctively the right price for any good and service that’s been circulating in your community for your entire life.
When you work a lot you see a lot, you also visualize how things are made and how to make them. We’re talking about freaking hand sanitizer and masks here, why can’t Canada make hand sanitizer and Masks?Oh, oh I know, could it be that the labour unions who are very influential in government deemed it wise to make it their mantra that if a private business can’t pay the government hourly minimum wage-price control to unemployed people then that private company shouldn’t exist in Canada?
So guess what happened? those companies left and took their jobs with them, now it’s so bad in Canada that we don’t even have the financial infrastructure to mass-produce masks and hand sanitizer?
A market economy revolves around DRIVING DOWN prices, why a lot of people hated a market economy is because in a market economy there’s deflation, the government in case you didn’t know is the main contributor to driving up prices, and one of the reasons welfare is supposed to be temporary is because people in a market economy are usually smarter and also have their own assets to push back against the price gougers.
You ever heard the saying your money is welcome here?
In a market economy, you have to be careful who you piss off, you might find that your cost of doing business goes up as customers either step coming are intentionally become, problematic customers, life is about the decisions you make, in a market economy honesty is the best policy.
You see a wage is an invention, created mainly by the industrial revolution, Marxism at the very least was an ideal that revolved around the Proletariat, even Karl Marx never imagined a Welfare State in which it benefited more not to work than it did to work.
Karl Marx thought it best that the Proletariat use its collective power against the Capitalists, well unfortunately for Marx the failure of his Communist Manifesto was that he never imagined the Proletariat not to comprehend that the market was smarter than a large collective group of people who couldn’t imagine innovation replacing them.
Below is an example of what happens when the government doesn’t intervene!
There’s a lot of money that is wasted on items that the government made taboo, a lot of people do drugs because the government told them not to. Criminals with guns in gun controlled areas feel powerful because they’re well aware that it’s illegal for any civilian to shoot back at them.
Yan Gong, owner of CCA Logistics Ltd. if he was price gouging was doing it, primarily because the Canadian government convinced citizens via the minimum wage law that certain jobs are beneath them to do. Why do those labor-intensive low skilled jobs when your government has a Welfare check?
Don’t worry about working on the farms, if you’re broke and think certain low paying jobs are beneath you, move to a big city, get on a list for metro housing and collect government welfare until the government solves the problem, while you’re at it, have a few kids.
Don’t worry your government will find cheap foreign labour to work at Cargill’s meat processing plant, you know what else, the government has the proletariat back, so if there’s a COVID-19 outbreak, don’t worry about production levels, the Inspectors union at unionized meat plants will make sure you don’t have to work and you are paid in the event of Coronavirus outbreak.

Stupidity spreads quickly, it spreads like wildfire, and eventually, stupidity becomes Canadian culture as entire generations grow up in a Nanny State and imagine the government levers to be as efficient as the free market. But no, what happens to great nations as Nanny State dominates the thinking is that simple masks can’t be manufactured anymore, because there’s no incentive to make them.
People who believe in the Nanny State assume their devalued currency will maintain it’s valued and never imagine themselves to be like those other countries that had economic shortages of goods. This is temporary the Socialists assume, the collective will find a way to fix this problem they tell themselves.
Eventually, the Conservatives start sounding like Liberals, which justifies the Liberals moving further Left. This is how great civilizations are destroyed! I comprehend that there are lots of atheists in Canada, but even if you don’t believe that those biblical stories are real, try to comprehend the lessons in those stories, what collective ideology made the Jews become SLAVES over and over again? What did trust in God really mean?
When people react emotionally to things those emotional people are usually easier to control!
Interesting times ahead
