The easiest from G7 to get- Canadian permanent residence.
Canada is looking for new working force, however many new comers are ending up on social assistance.

The anti-trump propaganda was ramped at full throttle for 4+ years so its hard for people to look through that.

It applies to landlords who own 3000 or more units. They are not squashing small time investors. Canada’s federal government was significantly more invested in housing in the 70’s and 80’s until there was a change in policy and the private market has ‘filled in’. Would you say Canada of that period was communist?

That you would suggest the Trump regime was ‘totalitarianism’ betrays either your reckless use of language or your ineptitude. Name a Trump policy that was totalitarian. On the other hand, Biden has made a decade of progress towards totalitarianism in a mere 8 months.

Despite your ‘meh’, presumably to project your superior insight, your second paragraph essentially echoes my initial point: crony capitalism is the problem.

Meh… The shift from Obama to Trump proves that any particular country is only 1 step away from Totalitarianism at any given time. Socialism isn’t necessary to facilitate the transition.

The private sector, specifically in finance, has proven over the last 50 years that it’s fundamentally irresponsible and self-serving. It needs regulation and oversight and the regulators needs regulators and so on.

My guess would be Secessio plebis.

Imagine if even 25% of the country’s working population simultaneously and unanimously went on strike for an indefinite amount of time.

With no single union or workforce directly responsible, how do you stop it? A strike isn’t an act that you can simply pepper spray or beat with a club either (like a protest against police brutality for example). The massive disruption would likely bring the government to its knees almost immediately.

With the availability of technology I could see this happening and gaining momentum fairly quick. Once the media gets a hold of it, I imagine it would spread quickly across the world.

Food for thought anyway.
