Barely a month since he was sworn in and Ford Derangement Syndrome is spreading among Moonbats

Mulder

Ford Derangement Syndrome…..it exists. Symptoms include (but are not limited to) the following:

-Does your blood pressure rise when you are at a red light behind a Fusion, Explorer or Mustang?
-Do you think Doug Ford was the Mayor of Toronto and smoked crack?
-Were you a Minister in the Wynne Government?
-Do you feel the urge to give condoms to 5th graders?
-Are you fearful your social assistance will finally run out after 10 years of sitting at home watching Drew Carey on The Price is Right?
-Are you afraid the corner store clerk will not be smart enough to card kids for beer even though he has been carding them for smokes for years?
-Are you the former head of the OPA?
-Do you have a pending contract for a solar installation that will pay you way more than the going rate for electricity?
-Are you a member of a public sector union?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you need to immediately check yourself in to the nearest hospital or medical clinic funded by McGuinty increased health taxes and start reading Ayn Rand novels and watch episodes of Milton Friedman’s Free to Choose until you recover. Avoid watching any Canadian news stations for at least 8 years. (Longer if Ford wins a 3rd term)

It’s time to get off the sidelines and back into the game

OfficiallyScrewed.com is a website dedicated to logically degrading, demoralizing, and deflating those that our society chooses to shower with press, praise and perfume (not to mention MONEY) for being imbeciles and officially screwing us, usually politically.

We stand for the Average Joe who wonders…

  • Who the hell is running this world?
  • What the hell is this world coming to?
  • When the hell did it change for the worse?
  • Where the hell did all the normal people go?
  • Why the hell is common sense so uncommon?
  • How the hell do we get out of this mess?

To delve deeper, OfficiallyScrewed.com is the brainchild of a fiscal conservative/libertarian who lost it after hearing about the Liberal Sponsorship Scandal. In essence, the feeling was that we were all being “OfficiallyScrewed”.

Not having any other outlet to vent, this site was created in 2005 to provide a voice to it’s creator. Because the bottom line is You either pay attention or pay through the nose. And I would rather pay attention.

Look out world.  I am back….and with a vengeance

 

Curse of Michael Buble – 2017 Edition

Mulder

Today is the last day of the 2016-2017 NHL season.  And it is time again for me to bring up the Curse of Michael Buble.  Many ask, how could the Vancouver Canucks fall from such graces as getting to the 7th game of the NHL finals a few years ago and then turn into the unmitigated disaster that they have become the last 6 seasons since that 2011 final.  Even Don Cherry has no clue.

But us insiders know the truth.  It all comes down to the triple curse placed on the team by yours truly after Michael Buble said the bandwagon was too small for Canada to chear for his Canucks and that we should get our own team.  I think Michael Buble needs to give me a call and have me remove the curse.  With results like those below, what do you think?

2011 – They lost in game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals after the curse was enacted before game 7.
2012 – They were a one seed and lost in 5 games to the lowly 8th seeded Los Angeles Kings.
2013 – They were a 3 seed and lost in 4 straight to the 6th seeded San Jose Sharks.
2014 – They missed the playoffs for the first time since the 2007-2008 season
2015 – They were the second seed in the Pacific division and lost in 6 games in the first round to the lower ranked Calgary Flames.
2016 – They finished 2nd last in the Western Conference missing the playoffs
2017 – They missed the playoffs and will finish the season as one of the worst 2 or 3 teams in the Western Conference

The triple curse.

ACK ACK ACK!  SIX SIX SIX, Number of the Beast!  Noonan!!

And so seven straight years of hockey misery sits firmly on the shoulders of the crooner.

ACORN Ottawa Hurting The Most Desperate

Mulder

Acorn Ottawa picketed in front of Money Mart’s in the east end to protest the density of agencies that provide temporary loans.  They say these agencies corner citizens and trap them like animals leaving them in an endless loop of poverty.

So what are they asking for?  A minimum distance between agencies and higher licensing fees.

Let’s take these two items and look at them.

Minimum distances between agencies to be mandated.

This will reduce the number of agencies in the area giving the patrons fewer options.  It also means that should a patron want to compare prices they would have to travel further to determine which location or outlet is offering the best deal.  So in effect, this request would make it harder on patrons to do what is best for them and leave them at the whim of their closest outlet.

This also reduces the supply of services which, if we pay attention to microeconomic supply and demand curves, will drive up prices further hurting the patrons of these businesses.

Higher License Fees to Operate a Money Loan Establishment

Higher license fees to operate the business means one of three things.

  1. The people who work in the outlet will get paid less because the business will have to absorb the costs, or
  2. Prices for the services they offer will have to go up to compensate for the added cost, or
  3. The businesses will eventually go under leaving those with poor credit and the need for money nowhere to go in emergency situations.  This is the most dangerous as those advance loans often go towards buying food for the patrons family.

All of these options hurt the local community.

So what does this all add up to?  ACORN is actually hurting those it is most out to help because it does not understand the simple concepts of supply and demand.  Shame on ACORN.  You are OfficiallyScrewing over Ottawa residents with your antics.
