'dang' and 'gee'? I thought you were putting yoursellf across as an Aussie? I have seen you use these American expletives before too. I think you might be watching too many movies and too many American tv shows.
As youngsters, we were taught a brilliant adage, and its meaning: "if you see a flood coming and you are to stupid or lazy to get into a boat to save your own life, then you deserve to drown." The adage definitely applies to Australians.
With all due respect, the people I feel most sorry for are the Indigenous Australians. They think white Christians were mean and tough on them. Wait until the law of Islam rolls around onto them; it will make white Christianity look like a teddy bears picnic.
Either way, the gravy train stops permanently. I'm not suggesting the indigenous people/inhabitants were not entitled to fair and reasonable compensation, but the compensation pendulum is not based on reasonable and fair compensation anymore, its swung in one direction now, and based on greed and revenge, rather than equality. We all have to learn by past mistake, not keep making them.
I'm sure there are plenty that stifle their desire for revenge in understanding of the oncoming doom.
Your just thinking too much about little things. Yeah could be TV shows and could be the fact I spent a bit of time there....
So you are very impressionable then, easily led, a weak personality with little strength of character to hang on to your Australian individuality.
You're telling the story. If you've easily influenced me I guess it's probably true....lol! Don't have to wear me thongs, drape myself in beach towel or drive around with Australian flag hanging from me car with a flag pole erected in me front lawn to show I'm an Aussie, I'm not that shallow! What was that again?
Oncoming doom indeed. Australians are yet to realise, or even begin to comprehend, just how far down the dark tunnel they have gone. A country with exceptional potential and possibilities turned into a scrap yard.
Unfortunately, my father saw the dark days down the tunnel for Australia begin in the early 1980's. Australia had the best wool in the world, and instead of capitalising on that through manufacturing exports to increase Australian businesses and tax revenue, the politicians decided to sell off the best live Australian wool sheep to the world, and within five years the Australian wool industry was lost. Why would other countries want to buy Australian made wool products, when they now had the best Australian sheep; grew their own wool, and manufactured their own woolen products. This insane sell-off of Australia's best manufacturing and agricultural potential has continued for decades, to the point, where the country is only good for being strip mined for its natural resources. Its really sad and degrading, but in some developing third world countries, Australia is highlighted as an example of what "not to do" if you want your country to prosper and develop. How did Australia sink so low that its now only being viewed internationally as a strip mine for natural resources or food bowl by other countries?
It really is so sad that 40 years ago, Australia had the financial potential to rival every other country on the planet, and now its just a strip mined, bankrupt s.h.i.thole; covered in so many thorium and nuclear toxic waste sites, that its frightening to even know where to live anymore without your children developing cancer or some genetic abnormality. Australia is completely "dotted" in these toxic carcinogenic sites. On top of that worry, every landfill around Australia is leaching out toxic cancerous mercury into the underground water supply and into the land due to those ECO light bulbs forced upon everyone by the Greens party. This is why I am serious when I say Australia would be the perfect place as the planets nuclear waste dump, because its a toxic hazard already.
Its got to have been done on purpose. The powers that be influenced the politicians to do it. Just imagine how powerful Australia would be now if traditional values weren't abolished. So many men over those decades must have been wtf is happening. At least the internet brings peace of mind. At least the maddening confusion is solved. - - - Updated - - - And the Thought Police keep helping the establishment. Bizarre.
Did you know at one time in Australia the teaching of ENCRYPTION to any students at any level was OUTLAWED!!??? AboveAlpha
Funny place Sydney. I mean I wonder if this would have happened anywhere else. I'm not knocking Sydney just thinking about the demographics. I reckon half the Bekaa Valley moved to Sydney during or after the civil war in Lebanon. Most of them would be Muslim. But this wasn't a religious dust-up, it was between two in-groups. One group were Lebanese from the outer suburbs, the other was Anglos from the beach suburbs. I mean don't you people watch the doco "Housos"? That explains it pretty well. Except the Anglos in "Housos" aren't exactly the privileged that can afford to grown up in the beachside suburbs. We probably won't see it again.
Not sure if it was deliberate, or done out of shear incompetence and personal greed. My elderly aunt lives up near Port Macquarie, and is one of the most intelligent people I know - I respect her so much. She has always maintained that politicians don’t have a single brain between them all to manage a lemonade stand in a front yard, and incapable of managing a country when you look at their qualifications. Even worse, the majority Australian citizens are just as stupid for voting unqualified people into power without knowing anything about them first. She told me: how can politicians mange the country successfully for the citizens, when they “out source” 95% their work to private companies and businesses to accomplish, and then become the mouthpieces for these reports? Therefore, private companies and businesses are making all the decisions that effect the socialisation and economy of Australian citizens and the country, and these people in these private companies and businesses were never elected by the Australian citizens. She keeps saying that if private business and companies are already leading and guiding Australia, then what the hell do we need these parasite politicians for? Surely we can find a cheaper mouthpiece like the media, instead of paying thousands of parasites wages for doing nothing, besides gallivanting around the world at our expense thinking they are celebrities. When we have homeless citizens and citizens that don't have food everyday; politicians SHOULD NOT be racking up $millions in travel expenses at tax payers expenses - its obscene.
Yeah right lol. The country would be in a mess lol - - - Updated - - - The point is you are all reading too much into it.
Your Aunt is correct. Politicians shouldn't run governments, that should be done by the professional, impartial public service. Not going to happen now though. The PS has been politicised by successive governments to the point where it's a mere mirror of whichever party is in power. We're in the (*)(*)(*)(*) for sure.
Decisions are already made in Australia by people who have money to either bribe politicians or can force politicians to their will, so how can it get any worse by getting rid of the parasites that do nothing?
My aunt is very much in favor of the private sector. She believes that the private sector incorporating a public council would be better for Australia, as these parasitical political parties have done nothing except bleed the country dry since their inception. She believed that both the ALP and Liberal parties stated off on the right foot, but bastardised themselves by joining the Unions and big business. Therefore, completely lost their independence of being political parties for all the citizens. How can the two major political parties claim they govern for everyone, when no one knows what the ALP stands for anymore, knows what they want, or who they represent, and the LNP only represent big business and capitalism. She makes a lot of sense for an 85 year old lady.
