  8. While socialism recognizes everything as right only to consistently have a problem with shortages, because it can't provide anything in an efficient or adequate manner.

  9. Basic human need =/= basic human right. Since when did it become a basic human right to demand and force others against their will to provide for one's basic human need?

  10. @The Secular Atheist <and we in Ontario won't be giving you a dime> As if you even have a dime to give. Didn't Ontario become a have-not province the last time the Liberals were in charge?

  24.  @jptrainor  <Canada's system is an anomaly. It's a political sacred cow here that resists all attempts at reform.> Exactly. Also the US's private system lives rent-free in most Canadians' minds.

  35.  @stratford374  <Everyone deserves a living wage. Whether you're working in hospitality, the trades or an office. Everyone deserves a wage that allows them thrive not just survive.> Not really. It's either up your skills or manage what you currently have better.
    3
  36. LOL. If you're making 60K a year and struggling, it's safe to say you're living beyond your means.

  37. Yet Toronto's crisis still pales in comparison to Vancouver's which has rent control.
    3
  38.  @hungusthefungus3461  Plus the debt was paid off in 1947.
