Steve Gifts Oil Industry With Taxpayers $?

Does it boggle the mind how a Prime Minister would come to dole out 150 million dollars to an American owned industry that has raped the world, profiteered and war mongered to a degree that has lapped previous levels several times in the last decade and, an American ownded industry that currently pay a 1% royalty fee for tar sands oil (don’t even ask about who does the math, either)?
Is there a Prime Minister anywhere in history that has worked as hard as has Steven Harper to make this nation look as stupid as possible, to look as “subservient” as possible and to look as patronizing as possible?
Next to the banking industry the short lived oil industry is the most coddled, the most contemptuous, the most reckless, the greediest and murderous…….now Stevie figures all of Canada should subsidize criminals with our tax dollars so the industry doesn’t have to bear the expense of figuring out how to contaminate the earth at a different location in Alberta. This from the man that beats his breast about judges coddling criminals, the man that snorts about jail terms not being long enough.
I guess it could be simply stated that Steve favors rich mass murderers and thieves to the small time, poor ones.
And what about “User Pay”? Isn’t that a favorite Conservative concept as they promote private medicine?
Apparently not where foreign criminal corporations are concerned.

Lovely isn't it. We pay huge amounts of money at the pump for them to make profits and then we give their management huge amounts of taxpayers dollars to ensure they continue to make these gross profits at twice our expense.

Whats next? If I go to the Bay and buy a pair of pants do I then go to the mangement and give them more money so they would sweep the floor to clean up the mess made by making my pants?

This is ridiculous. They are already receiving one subsidy from taxpayers why give them two? All for a pipe dream.
