Quebec To Subsidize Fertility Clinics; Other Topics Of Interest

A former colleague of mine at FPC still maintains a relationship with a couple of clinics. One happens to be a fertility clinic and was explaining the province of Quebec will soon be subsidizing people who want to be, erm, fertilized.

While it will be great for his business, the doctor is concerned about the impact this will have on society moving forward. He feels this is just a plump, plain bad idea. He already has been getting calls from people on "welfare" already with large families asking for the "free" service.

The problem he argues, and one in which this blog hammers out every chance it gets, is that someone has to pay for this.

Subsidizing as a tool for progressivism is foolish.

My cousin was talking to a Bell worker from Mexico. The agreeable gentleman was telling how the word is out in Mexico about how easy it is to get a loan for education in Canada. His words, "it's party time up here. Everything is free."

Speaking of paying, again, something tells me Americans are paying a lot of dough to support illegal immigrants. There IS a cost to that. So, how is this fair exactly again?

Read a great comment somewhere - I forget which blog - earlier today and it stuck with me. The poster was concerned with Obama's ubiquitous presence in many facets of American life at all levels. He doesn't believe one iota one man can take on all he claims to be able to solve. For him, a president is not meant to be interventionist but one in which he leads and galvanizes the right people outside the state to solve the problems that afflicts a society.

And then there's this gem of a comment made by George Soros to CNN in February.

"Soros wanted the banks nationalized, but added that Obama “made the political decision that that is un-American, will not be accepted.”

Ring, ring, ring! Aside from the delicious irony, why does Soros want the banks nationalized? Think about it.
