“The End Justifies the Means”, so this corporative government tells us. Well, if you were bought up in my generation, then you were taught that it most definitely didn’t! Ive never bothered too much with tax. Not given it too much thought. Paid it, but didnt give it much thought. Its just a thing you do as a member of society… Like voting – I know many people who give voting far less thought than I’d ever given to tax….
Home. What is a migrant? …they say that ‘home is where the heart is’. What does this mean if you are a migrant? Does this mean, because a migrant has no home, that a migrant has no heart? Heartless? No courage, no soul. Or does it mean perhaps, that a migrant has left his soul …his heart, his courage elsewhere so cannot give it or of it anywhere else? A migrant & his home. I remember how excited we…
Sneaky Pete pulls a swifty on the ‘people of Australia’ …again. What a sad place our complacency is turning this once hopeful & fearless country into. Gone is all the progress fought so strongly for by our fathers and their fathers before them – yes mother’s you too! No wonder, another piece of ‘legislation’ that bypassed parliament. Another decree. Don’t ever forget this ignorant ex-cop who has somehow managed to get himself ‘elected’ has opinions such as, “Opinion? You don’t…
As you are all aware of by now I am not a fan of the present Australian Government, in fact you have probably worked out that m not a fan of government nor neo-liberalism. Over the past few days our neo-liberal information process has given us such things as ‘fear and preposterousness’ in our ‘Queen’ Julia Bishop making statements that while designed to lull us into a false sense of demockracy have – we are told – spread rampant fear…
This week I had cause to contact our government. A Centrelink matter – you know the department of human resources, a question of the security of the society. Human resources. They’ve developed apps Im told, through which people, humans, can contact our government but they unfortunately always direct me back to a previous page or tune. Tune… oh my lord what tunes! I dont like them. The apps. They dont work.. or at least they dont work in the way…
Close the borders ..it may be a cheaper alternative than prisons & mad-houses. It may be a short term solution to the security of this society – but it doesnt solve the problem. The Problem is overpopulation. Humans. Human Extras more to the point. Overpopulation is the real problem that ‘our’ world, the future, faces – or rather does everything possible not to face. What do we do with the EXTRAS the unnecessary food absorbers? This is a vital and…
Its been said that our politicians are both ‘ignorant and ill-educated’. On this, I’d like to say that Ive had a fair bit of experience with Australian politicians over the past 40 yrs. Being a child of the 20th Century Ive lived through the governments of Whitlam, Frazer, Hawke, Keating, Howard, Rudd, Gillard, Abbot and now Turnbull – most definitely they appear to becoming more deficient in education and more outwardly ignorant year by year. Meanwhile we youth of the…
