[lbo-talk] Canadian dollar trades above 80 cents US, highest point in more than a decade

[Tom Walker]

And I, Sandwichman, aka Tom Walker, am offering five thousand of those 
high flying loonies (at 80 cents per, that's $4,000 U.S. bucks) to the 
lucky ducky who can authenticate the claim that advocates of reduced 
working time or work sharing necessarily "believe there is only a fixed 
amount of work to be done" as claimed in the October 18 report prepared 
by former IMF head Michel Camdessus for the French Ministry of Finance. 
Or as the report puts it, "La logique de partage repose sur l’hypothèse 
qu’il existe, dans l’économie, une quantité d’emplois déterminée et fixe."

BULL F'ing SHIT, Monsieurs Camdessus et Sarkozy. The lump of labour 
fallacy is a hoax, the claim is a straw man and therefore M. Camdessus's 
report is a crock. And I invite anybody who wants to put up a prize that 
nobody can win to pledge contributions to increase the prize amount.
