A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.
A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.
RULES:
1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.
2 No Trolling
3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.
4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.
5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.
6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' etc.

Profits are revenues minus spendings, remove the leech and you need less revenues to make the same profit. That's how companies manage to make their numbers look good by cutting staff, but they'll never cut upper management (the guys you're defending).
Ontario privatize hydro, rates go up
Hydro Quebec is a crown corporations and offers the best rates in North America
Saskatchewan has the best telecom rates in Canada through its crown corporation
Quebec and BC have the best car insurance rates because it's managed by crown corporations
The list goes on and on and on
The goal of Canada Post is to offer an essential service to all Canadians at the same low cost, you say private corporations would be better? Well there's no mail or packages being delivered to remote locations because they don't want to provide the service. So it's ok for you to let the private sector handle deliveries and let northern Canada end up being unable to receive mail? Hell, at the moment even in cities is hard to get stuff delivered and costs are much higher than they are with Canada Post, funny how it turns out it's the opposite of what you said that happens when the private sector is left to handle shit.
