Downward Spiral ...

Today's Song is:  Do What You Want Lady Gaga ...


What is with the Canadian dollar falling in value to the Thai Baht .. losing about 16% over the past year. Now I know oil is down, but at least Canada has the 4th largest world supply. However, rubber and rice are down as is tourism since the coup, so surely you would think a country that has a well educated population, free health care, and an abundance of natural resources would be outperforming Thailand.

And, what's with the states, lots of job growth, but the jobs mostly suck because of part-time or low wages, with no benefits. Maybe it is because they spend more on self defense and armaments than the next 8 countries combined. That must be it .. Canada has start to produce more guns and ammo to drive the economy.

Ever since I left Canada the economy has been in the tank. These rates really affects how much fun I have :-). I am just happy I am not a snowbird living in the USA.
