No, I admitted I was wrong about the degree to which Canada cut government spending, but the trend is absolutely true.

And I've backed up my claims about Sweden many, many times including quoting its elected prime minister who began it.

Thanks for confirming your utter inability to be honest.

You've cited just about zero for your psychotic claims.

Well, kid. I think my work here is about done. You're going to go back to throwing chaff, making false claims about "socialist" countries that are "becoming" slightly less "socialist" (i.e., not spending at their top historical rate, during an economic downturn) - as if there has never been an ebb and flow in the spending of any other organizations, including capitalist corporations, monarchies, charities, orchestras and bird watching clubs. You'll seize on some minutia, insist it's a trend, impute motives to the trend which serve your partisan narrative, and continue to make sweeping statements based on virtually zero evidence until we're arguing about the viability of Volvo in a pre-Clinton America, if not for the intervention of Ikea - or some such twaddle.

When confronted with the brutality of Singapore's government, and challenged to explain why "economic freedom" for the elites leads to economic oppression of everyone else, you reached into your bag of answers and selected, "Hey - what about Pinochet - now THAT guy knew how to institute a free market, huh?"

In other words, I think you answered my question, Clem. Thanks.

It's been kind of creepy.
