Colby Cosh summarizes and links to a story about idiot-populism by the Newfoundland government -- essentially, they're enforcing the creation of jobs which destroy value. The world would be better off, in other words, if the people who held those jobs were paid to sit on their butts, which is something else Newfoundland has tried.
Cosh also links to this parody of The Onion, pointing out, among other things, that their headlines are always better than their stories. Case in point this week: "Those Chechen Rebels Stole My Idea".
Speaking of the Onion, they appear to be really bitter about the elections last week. As the saying goes, "neener, neener."
