Remember when Canadians lauded Obama's victory when it would spell out protectionism? Surprise, surprise. Obama has never been- and never will be- a friend to Canada. That can't be said enough.
Canadians aren't the only ones who will be hit in the wallet. American taxpayers might enjoy a brief windfall this tax season only to pay it all back next tax season. The tactic of giving the electorate a taste of financial honey is conniving, yet effective. If a blue-collar worker could put his earnings in a tax shelter the way some celebrities can, there wouldn't be much a problem.
But wait! There's more! The new Jackie Kennedy spent $540 on running shoes! Apparently, she needs them. Being "utilitarian" is all the rage. If only some people could get that message (self-made people really fry me!).
I end this snark with a conscientious cat.
