I would say that the only one of these things the government “needs to fix” is the job part. Not because they are responsible for finding (and keeping) our jobs for us, but because they are responsible for paying attention to economic growth which can translate to better jobs.
And I find it fascinating that our unemployment numbers have supposedly dropped drastically when all of the folks I know who are unemployed simply no longer (or never did) qualify for EI, but I digress.
Although it’d also be nice to not have our utility bills steadily rise while service levels drop…
OB, how dare you speak the truth. LOL.
Instead of blaming government…they can be blamed for a lot of things..get out of bed and do something to enhance and change your life instead of bitching at the government.
