How much is Ontario willing to Pay?
Mood: trying to get the energy to do housework
Listening to: the Red Sox
After reading it twice I began to muse half asleep watching the Red Sox.
How much is a person or a segment of society willing to pay illegally for what they have, and what would make them do it?
I am sure there was Adscam thefts, illegal of course with our, the taxpayers money. To me that it is a given for hopefully most people of Ontario. I am going to wonder why it is Ontario that keeps the Libs in power.
First I look at Ontario, accepting that;
they are politicaly ignorant as they only barely listen to news sound bites. Martin with the media is a master of sound bites that are very very short. Example; the Conservatives are scary, and, Harper is scary. Face it, this sticks like glue and I have not nor can I recall any very short repeated repeatable sound bites from the Conservatives with the exception of, "the Liberals are corrupt".
First of all, the word "corrupt" is much more difficult to pronounce and let alone recall versus the word "scary". People recall easier words easier. Picture simple people, not University grads, get down to street level to reach the majority of urban voters. This offsets a lower level of recieving news sound bites due to holding down several jobs or whatever. Now how much are they willing to pay illegaly to keep the fear of scare at bay?
Ontarios arrogance is their political ignorance. A "have" Province which has everything to offer times ten. How can they not want to tell other Provinces whats good for them as Ontario has more culture, education, opportunities, etc, etc. while the ROC has far less in choices within so many hours of a drive. A worldly arrogance without leaving the Province. How much would one be willing to pay illegaly to keep this arrogant one-upmanship? Now I happen to think that this arrogance whether based on ignorance or not is a human trait that fuels compitition, but I might be out in left field. God I am starting to sound corney.
the Ontarians do fear potentially having Rights removed and believe in the "slippery slope fallacy" that some manipulators use. How much would one be willing to pay illegaly to prevent this fear?
City dwellers in Ontario vote Liberal, versus some rural areas in Ontario where the Conservatives came very close. The urban areas do not want to know their neighbours and they definately do not want their neighbours to know them and their business (must be the close proximaty, population density, trying to stake out ones own clearly defined patch etc). This versus the small town and rural areas where one cannot escape ones neighbours (parodoxically true as one cannot hide within anonimity). In urban areas one can grow in anonimity where one knows to mind their own busines and live and let live as long as you don't do it in my backyard. The Conservatives are like, we want to know and at the very least control what one does with Conservative based moral laws. How much is one willing to make in illegal payments to at least not have the Party that might take that away?
Its all fear based to the unintelligent and/or the politicaly ignorant. Why Ontario seems to have more, I don't know.
The value of "fear" for Martin - priceless.
The value of ignorant people for Martin - priceless
The value of the unintelligent for Martin - pricelss
Put them altogether and the value to Martin -
his soul -
not if you ask him though,
a psychopath thinks he is normal.
cheers :) majere
So what must Harper do?
Become a master of very very short sound bites in simple english.
Repeat them until the Ontario news media repeats them. Repeat them until Toronto taxi drivers are repeating them as conversation starters to patrons. Then you know you have Ontario.
