All for ourselves, and nothing for other people, seems, in every age of the world, to have been the vile maxim of the masters of mankind.

On giveaways
Geoff Matthews highlights a CTF report criticizing the amount of money some corporations have raked in through federal government assistance. While it's too simplistic to assume that none of the payments had some good reason behind them, the all-too-rare attention to corporate subsidies should play nicely to the NDP's current effort to put people back at the front of the line over big business interests...that is, as long as it isn't long forgotten by the time Canadians again decide which party should be put in charge of deciding how to handle Canada's public money.
