PARLEZ-VOUS 'BROKE,' ELIOT?

Here a great article in the New York Post on Eliot Spitzer's tax-and-spend tendencies. His recent decision to impose another regressive tax which would require businesses to buy insurance to cover paid family leaves for workers is not only harmful towards future investment in the state, but a deterent towards economic development.

Oh btw, I also liked this little tidbit near the end of the article: "And Canada, a welfare-state bastion, elected Stephen Harper - a free-market economist - prime minister last year." A free-market economist? Let's hope someone reminds him, eh Gerry?

Which also begs the question: "if Canada's a welfare state bastion, than what the heck are we here in New Brunswick? Marxist? Leninist?
