Coalition Government and State Industrial Development
As the late dramatic shift in Canadian politics has fully validated, the crisis within capitalist system is creating political conditions that are ever more tension-ridden, hostile and fluid. The deepening economic crisis is opening larger divisions within contending capital forces for shrinking attribute pools, which are translating into bourgeois political crises and sharp polarizing fights. Prime Minster Stephan Harper remains committed to his ideological Rectification Party oil monopoly support base in Alberta. He will do this at the expense of Canadian workers, Alberta included.
What has started as a sharpening factious squabble within the major Canadian political parties is quickly turning into a popular expression of anger within the working group. As uneven, confused and disjointed this sentiment, it is none the less a reflection of the widening economic gap between productive forces on the one hand and investment capital capital on the other. It reflects the massive global impoverishment of billions of workers under the now fully discredited and failed neo-progressive policies of free market capitalism. Alberta is not immune to these changes.
Canadian ‘economic experts’ like to say that, while Canada’s ‘economic fundamentals are sound’; we are not ‘immune’ to the global economic crisis affecting other nations. What they are uncommonly saying to the power cabal of Canadian finance, military and energy capital is that the Harper-Reform Fete economic policies are sound and will serve your interests, but you must remain vigilant against the growing general anger within the worldwide working class. They warn that Canada is not immune from a rapidly growing working class consciousness now out-and-out other parts of the world and developed capitalist economies which is quickly manifesting into demands for state control of the frugality. This will not do if you are a finance capitalist.
