Keep the current provincial set up and attempt to change where it goes after there and you will have some chance of convincing people.

Saying they are anti-everyhting is just not true, as with all parties they have proposals of their own which they should be judged on, whether good or bad. To say they are anti-everything is pure silliness.

I know its unpopular but I stand with the civil servants, they do good work, it is the idiots higher up who promote tradition over efficiency and idiot governments who have successively not made use of the manpower at hand.

Mitt Romney is a lunatic Mormon who despises the working class with a passion. He would do much more harm than Obama.

I'm not looking for you to do my research for em but I have never heard the IMF say anything like that. either way the austere budgets and crippling of the working class would continue under the IMF even if they are calling for a burning of the bondholders.

Look at the impact they have had elsewhere. countries in south America only began to imporive when they booted out the IMF and her iditoic far-right economics.
