There must be a way for us to send our woke crowd that wrecks everything to Toronto?
Maybe Alberta government could buy or build a housing project in Ontario. Offer one way bus ticket and free rent for a year? I think it would be worth the money. After a year they wouldn't be able to afford a bus ticket back. Good deal for them because they would be with own kind.

See, now THAT is the kind of out-of-the-box thinking that we need around here!

They will live in supplied housing near the factory/farm where they work. Paid for by the factory owner, subsidized by government or even government owned....

The only binding agreement would be if you leave, you can never return.

Im betting there would be hundreds of thousands in these "labor cities".

All basic needs met, healthcare, menial to administrative and supervisory jobs, perhaps different only by number of days off......

And those of us who kept our firearms and had ambition and aspirations, well, we might live better because the lazy and useless and true socialists/communists are in their own little "utopia"

Right now, they are trying to have ALL of us in their "utopia".......

Like the song says "let the bodies hit the floor"
Strange New World is surprisingly similar to that scenario.

1984 is also very similar. Funny how authors of the mid 20th century were able to imagine a world like that. They were probably laughed at in their own time by their respective audiences who thought a world of such absurdity was impossible. Now it seems to be all too real.

Unfortunately I know a number of people who would gladly embrace a life such as you described, to them it would mean that they would no longer be shackled by such burdens as freedom and knowledge and responsibility and other such nonsense. It would allow them so much more time consume utter trash in the digital world and allow them to feel good about being victims of their own narcissistic compassions.

I think you hit the nail on the head, Beached Whale - some people are a quite comfortable when they are told what to do. It affords them a detachment from accountability and responsibility, while at the same time, it lets them focus on their entitlements.

Also , they have apparently opened a cashless convenience store in California this week. Time to take the debit cards and credit cards away from teens.
