The problem with economic thinking that demands large and growing populations is that it's 19th and 20th century Ponzi scheme and traditional manufacturing economic thinking.

The Maritimes should not have to balance budgets.
Posted by doubtful]]> Fri, 26 Mar 2010 02:48:04 -0300 The Coast Halifax What is wrong with Daewoo coming in ? They provide intellectual capital and we provide financial capital.
Lockheed is prime contractor for refitting 25 year old frigates; would you be happy if they set up in New Brunswick of Newfoundland ?
Why would any corporation set up a business in Nova Scotia ?
What is so special about us ?
Face facts, we are a nice place with less than 1,000,000 people.
Insignificant.
Be happy that anyone invests here.

- Lockheed needs to stop getting money from EVERYONE, especially taxpayers.

- Why are we even thinking about subsidizing a convention centre, if the developers are so sure that it will succeed economically, let them foot the bill

- Nova Scotia's economy has grown more than 60% in the last 20 years, yet the average income of Nova Scotians has remained stagnant --> WAKE UP AND TAX THE RICH!

- Stop letting multinationals swoop in and set up shop in NS... Daewoo re-opening Trenton Works for wind turbine parts manufacturing seems like a great idea, but why don't we let local companies in on it?
