(9,688 posts)I say "parasitical corporate tools" and it might seem that I'm just throwing angry words out. But I actually mean the words in their literally defined sense.
The loyalties of parasites like Harper aren't to Canada (their clones who you fight against in the USA have no loyalty to the USA, either), their loyalty is to investment capital. Simple as that. Their upbringing, their background, their education of choice, their associations of choice, ensure a perfect bubble. It's the best optics for them that they go to a standard protestant church, seen often in the background of the photos they show of their families. And, aside from their membership in variously named investment capital civic clubs etc. (they know where all the new roads etc are going to be built, before anyone else..., and the're in on all the investment opportunities created), that's it for their extended social awareness. Shallow and parasitical.
I say "parasitical" because for the peanuts in profiteering offered to them as reward, they're trained to work for the banks, the oil companies, and increasingly the war profiteers to say and do everything asked. In fact the parasite Harper sacrificed the entire history of good faith Canada had in the world, as a country of peace and fairness, to be one of the upfront faces of the US "War on Terror", of the US's "coalition". Our guys are bombing Syria FFS! Jeez, the guy has got to go.
