      XPost: alt.fan.rush-limbaugh, alt.politics.trump       From: katt@gmail.com              To answer Matt Walsh: the only thing stopping illegal aliens from registering       to vote is the honor system.              Illegal aliens sign on a dotted line that they are not illegal aliens and are       legally allowed to vote, and Shenna Bellows thinks that stops all illegal       alien voting. LOL              =====              But the important thing to understand here is that, as in Minneapolis, the       Somalis aren't coming up with these schemes on their own. The NGOs and the       Democrat Party are all enabling it. And they're doing it because these       foreigners are key to their political power.              And for one thing, of course, a lot of these illegal aliens vote. Maine       Secretary of State Shanna Bellows admitted that just a few months ago. There       may be, I'm sure there are, in some isolated instances, some non-citizens may       be on the rolls. And that's what election officials do every day is verify the       integrity of the voter rolls. So to repeat, quote, sometimes there may be, I'm       sure there are, in some isolated instances, some non-citizens may be on the       rolls.              But you shouldn't worry about that, according to Shenna Bellows, because       Democrats are working very hard to ensure the integrity of our democracy.       That's her answer when she's explaining why she doesn't want to turn over       Maine's voter rolls to independent investigators for an audit. But wait a       minute. How would a single illegal alien ever get on the voter rolls in the       first place? Seems like that would be pretty easy to prevent that from       happening.              What safeguards does the state of Maine employ to ensure that only American       citizens are voting in our elections? And how many illegal aliens have been       able to circumvent those safeguards? Those are important questions for a       Secretary of State to address, but for Shana Bellows, it's no big deal. And we       all know why that is. These foreigners voted for Shana Bellows and her party.       That's it.              https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/2016867099730227200/vid/avc1/1920x1080/       __VqxFuHTnKwvoTb.mp4              =====              Canada:              'Worst In The World': Here Are All The Rankings In Which Canada Is Now Last              Most Unaffordable Housing, Highest Cell phone Bills And Worst Rate of Acute       Care Beds, To Name A Few              If you spend any time on social media, it's likely that you've seen this       graphic compiled by columnist Stephen Lautens that assembles 11 international       indices which feature Canada near the top spot. "Canada is broken? I don't       think so. Neither does the world," reads a caption.              Next time someone rants on how about how "broken" Canada is; or how badly we       are doing on the international stage... share some facts.              Numbers don't lie, Felicia.              https://archive.is/o/LnFRL/https://twitter.com/DIGuideBradley/status/155454507       9314010112              Naturally, it only tells a partial picture. While Canada may dominate abstract       indices such as "quality of life" and "peace," there are plenty of far more       empirical indicators in which we measurably rank as among the worst in the       developed world.              There's plenty to like about Canada, but below is a not-at-all comprehensive       list of all the ways in which we are indeed very broken.              WE HAVE THE MOST UNAFFORDABLE HOUSING IN THE OECD              The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development is essentially a       club of the world's 38 most developed countries. And when these 38 are ranked       against each other for housing unaffordability, Canada emerges as the clear       champion. OECD analysts rank affordability by comparing average home prices to       average incomes, and according to their latest quarterly rankings Canada was       No. 1 for salaries that were most out of whack with the cost of a home.              Housing by price to income ratio for the second quarter of 2022. That's Canada       on the extreme right.              https://archive.is/LnFRL/840da40d6fa3b7fef6fcccdfc1637d24e0786760.webp              WE HAVE THE WORLD'S MOST EXPENSIVE WIRELESS COSTS              Every year, the Finnish telecom analyst Rewheel ranks the world's most       expensive countries for wireless services. And last year, Canada once again       dominated. Across several metrics, Canada was found to be the most expensive       place in the world for mobile data. Analysts found that it would cost the       average Canadian the equivalent of at least 100 Euros to obtain a cell phone       plan with at least 100 gigabytes of mobile data. Across much of the EU, that       kind of cell phone plan could be had for less than 40 Euros.              https://archive.is/LnFRL/822bcfe750687b1ef6288ee7df5606fd15629289.webp              Canadian telecoms charge more than 10 times as much for 100 gigabytes of       mobile       data as companies in France or Ireland.              Canadian telecoms charge more than 10 times as much for 100 gigabytes of       mobile       data as companies in France or Ireland. Photo by Rewheel              WE HAVE THE LOWEST RATE OF ACUTE CARE BEDS AMONG PEER COUNTRIES              Canada's health system was particularly walloped by COVID-19 due to the simple       fact that most of our hospitals are at the breaking point even in good times.       Multiple times during the pandemic, provinces were forced into shutdown by       rates of COVID that had barely been noticed in better-prepared countries. A       ranking by the Canadian Institute for Health Information provides one clue as       to why. When ranked against peer countries, Canada's rate of per-capita acute       care beds was in last place, albeit tied with Sweden. Canada has two acute       care       beds for every 1,000 people, against 3.1 in France and six in Germany.              TWO OF THE PLANET'S "BUBBLIEST" REAL ESTATE MARKETS ARE IN CANADA              For at least 15 years now, Canada has been a regular contender on rankings of       overheated housing markets. And the latest UBS index of world cities with       "bubbly" real estate markets is no exception. In their 2021 index, Toronto was       second only to Frankfurt in terms of bubble risk, while Vancouver ranked       sixth.       Aside from Germany, Canada was the only country that saw two of its cities in       the top ten.              https://archive.is/LnFRL/1961e904e18e8cb533ff42c2eae7beb611827bd4.webp              Only two cities in the entire Western Hemisphere qualified as likely "bubble       risks," and they're both in Canada.              Only two cities in the entire Western Hemisphere qualified as likely "bubble       risks," and they're both in Canada. Photo by UBS Global Real Estate Bubble       Index 2021              WE RACKED UP COVID DEBT FASTER THAN ANYONE ELSE              The COVID-19 pandemic ushered in the most feverish global accumulation of debt       in the history of human civilization. So it's rather remarkable that amidst       this international monsoon of debt, Canada still managed to out-debt everyone       else. Last year, analysts at Bloomberg tracked each country's rate of public       and private debt accumulated during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic.              [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
