    Even in Canada, it's affecting us too. The stocks that my parents have are really low. And we were going to buy a nice new TV but now we can't for a while... Economic Crisis 412243 Sad.

    Ya, people are going fucking crazy. Just 2 days ago, 3 streets from where I live, this guy pulled up at a gas station. And 3 black people just ran up with baseball bats, hit him, and jacked his money.

    Sorry John, I guess that sounded selfish. I'm in a pretty decent standpoint of life right now, but it is a worry to my parents. We lost 300,000 dollars worth of stocks. Not money but its like 300,000 dollars that now we can't get.

    It's all in stocks. From my dad's company. Basically he put money in it, and it grew. And now it went WAY DOWN....but it will go back up soon. He knows about money fluctuation because he is an accountant. Economic Crisis 427289

    It is a tax on the amount of harmful chemicals that everyone uses. It will especially tax the larger companies. It's just another way to try and deter people from using too much fossil fuels. The less they pollute, the less they have to pay.

    Thanks John. Economic Crisis 427289 Another thing about the carbon tax now is that it might not go through because the Conservatives got elected instead of the Liberals. But it's still a minority government, so we shall see. Economic Crisis 427289

    Obama FTW!!! And it doesn't really matter for me. I'm Canadian so we have Steven Harper as our Prime Minister and then the other party leaders in the minority are Stephan Dion, Jack Layton and Gilles Ducep.
