  • The Stable Genius: Canada as US state #51

    From Björn Felten@2:203/2 to All on Thu Jul 31 05:48:07 2025
    Mark Carney is no match for the Stable Genius, who only knows how to bankrupt casinos.
    * A doctorate in economics in 1995 from the University of Oxford (England).
    * The governor of the Bank of Canada from 2008 to 2013.
    * The governor of the Bank of England from 2013 to 2020.
    Canadians sure know how to vote for the perfect person to lead them to a better economy. Unlike some other people...

    Conning people is easy. You just need to overcome their intelligence. But convincing people they've been conned is much harder. You need to overcome their pride.

    I hear Canada is taking applications, Baja Canada has a nice ring to
    it. The California central coast could be like the Canadian Riviera.

    We're both guessing at what Canadians think.

    No, we are not. You are, not me and every other educated person in
    the world, which includes most Canadians and even the majority of
    USAians.

    Lest anyone forgets..... Beeeeeorn here is an *EXPERT* on all things Canadian, and of course all things regarding the *USA*, and I'm sure
    there is a LONG list of other countries he knows everything about...

    Even his little postage-stamp country (hopefully), that isn't a factor
    in anything in the world.

    <YAWN>........... Fuckin blowhard bloviator is what he is.
