There’s no doubt in my mind that Ontario is going to hell fast.
From manufacturing to small businesses, taxes, fees, impossible regulations and gustapo tactics such as those from ESA, skyrocketing insurance costs in all forms and banking regulations that puts onerous start-up costs in the stratosphere does nothing for the province. Couple that with the latest craze on garbage, recyclying and NRGY prices and I equate Ontario as being third world status.
It is no longer possible to make a decent living in Ontario in the short term. A long term investment vision of a decade is needed with the financial wherewithall to be able to stand the test of time.
And in my opinion, it’ll only get worst following suicidal self tendencies of taking people with it. And honestly – who’s going to pay the bill – NOT BABY BOOMERS – guaranteed. It’ll be all of today’s young kids. Wait till those kids wake up and smell the roses. All I can say is people that have come up with these scenarios won’t be able to find a deeper cave than Osama Bin Laden himself. And I’ll be glad to point the way when asked.
Welcome to a brave new world ! In my opinion, the only way to truly make money and stay ahead of the idiots running the show – smartphone only and your brain. Other than that, good luck, you’ll have the Life sucked out of you. Don’t believe me ? Okay, start taking notes and build a database with all the details. Review them every 5 years and see how deep the holes in the ground are for small business owners. Once it hits 6 feet deep, I propose we get together to review the data and have a little chat.
See you in 5 years. Am I optimistic things are going to change. Yep you can bet you sweet asses I am. Afterall everything Changes whether we like it or not. It’s called the Dance of Life & NRGY, and no one gets off till the trains, planes and automobiles comes to a full stop. Hopefull we’ve got lots of runway left ahead of us before we hit altering speed bumps.
And if you’re also truly on the bandwagon of going legit, then the most suicidal way is to get into the Red Seal trades – they’ll have you by the balls and eat you for lunch. Certification today means diddly squat. You’ll be harassed, intimidated, bullied and squeezed out of the marketplace wondering what the hell is going on. But hey, don’t let me tell you so – live the fantasy and dream if you think you’re smart enough to work it out.
My last word of advice is this – take it or leave it. Once you’ve been pushed so far, you either jump on board of corruption and destroy everything you are or get destroyed by being pushed out of any work – most of it done through kickbacks, corruption and power plays. Saying it ain’t so – been there BDSM Dungeon and all. Afterall I know what hell looks like real close up and let me tell you, you’ll get duped into thinking you’ve got a great deal. There’s a whole army of people waiting to cash in on skinning you alive.
Here’s an example of knowing when to give up the ghose and stop beating a dead horse. My own personal good news is I chose not to milk my ex-wife to death as my Dad suggested. It’s my example of Conscious Choice – doing the right thing for my kids. all INow have to do is watch her doing herself in, no NRGY requirements on my part. When you don’t listen to reason and you little inner voice, it’s no use bringing a dead cow to eat hay when it doesn’t want to move in the first place. No amount of pushing and shoving will change it’s mind. It’ll have to come to it’s own conclusion – naturally. Life always finds a way.
The moral of this story is – don’t count on family and friends when the going gets tough. Their own personal problems will actually help accelerate you’re own demise if caution and wisdom isn’t heeded.
Now if only…… the ugly question raises it’s head again – 2B or NOT 2B = Do you prefer being a thankless stuffed turkey, pork fed to death or milked like a cash cow. That is the Question !!! Ah – the endless Conscious Choices.
Just to be fair – Ontario’s not the only one in this sad situation. However having lived there long enough, it’s making itself into an image of a donkey. And that my friends will make asses of you as well with the boot to prove it.
