I like to compose amusing, provocative tweets about various news stories & current events!

@FoodProfessor Instead of expensive, inefficient E.I., Welfare, and charity bureaucracies, give the money directly to the people!
The solution is a Universal Basic Income for all adults aged 18-64 to cover the cost of adequate food & shelter, at the very least.

The simple solution to most of the country's, and even the world's problems is simply...

PROSPERITY FOR ALL!!!

The complicated, difficult part is how to achieve it.

Society's problems will continue to get worse until the public wakes up and demands that our stolen prosperity be repaid from the ultra-wealthy so the poor, and the rest of us, get richer, instead of poorer, for a change!

PROSPERITY FOR ALL!

First, it was called Welfare, then renamed Social Assistance, and again renamed EIA.
Whatever you name it, I thought its purpose is to help people so they don't have to beg for money and live on the streets.

Why aren't homeless people on Welfare / Social Assistance?

If they are, why are they homeless?

Speaking for those of us that watch TV:

Enduring the SAME TV ADS too many times per show, on too many shows for too many days is detrimental to our mental health, and breeds resentment towards the sponsor.

For example, the Tide Mom.

@HomanNews I used to live in New York City and I haven't been back, even for a visit, in decades. So, I'll take that offer in a heartbeat!

@WeAreCanProud The Tim Hortons rewards program used to be a lot more generous.
So now instead, I choose to just pay less for my coffee at McDonald's.

Recycling is a 20th century technology that needs to be replaced with 21st century technology whereby disposable items are made out of materials that benefit the environment, when they decompose, instead of poisoning it!

Here's a different perspective of the skywalk from the Millennium Library to City Place in Winnipeg during the NHL playoffs.

@Rogers

My 3 #Shaw / #Rogers TV boxes are always out of sync when tuned to the same TV channel.

I hear the same audio from one room. Then, seconds later, from another room. Finally, the third.

It's like an echo chamber.

Called and texted tech support and neither solved it.

Nearby the Canada Life Centre, I found these 2 apparently unused NHL hockey tickets for the Jets game on Sunday, January 26th.

Today, I went to the box office to inquire about the Refund Policy. I was told they are non-refundable.

@MBGovNews Poor people would probably be rich if they'd directly receive all the money that goes to the programs, social workers, bureaucrats, managers, administrators, charities, etc. that fail to lift them out of poverty.
