But not so much government getting out of the way so businesses can make money. It should be businesses getting out of the way so people can have good lives.

    Should the role of government be to say:

    Sorry, corporations, you’re going to have to pay your fair share of taxes so our citizens aren’t dying in the streets

    Or

    Sorry, peasents, you’re going to have to die in the streets so that corporations can continue to make record profits

    I tend to think it should be the former. As a Canadian, we have a federal election coming up and it sucks that there is no (relevant) political party that shares my opinion.
