Well the fact that all those other departments haven't even got close to the scumbags that the RC has in a fairly short time says a lot about those departments , the RC was actually called for by a few union reps who happened to be disgusted by the rorting within the organisation , and to date I don't think there's been any LNP members giving evidence against union thieves,,,,only other union thieves in an act of self destruction,,,,,,but again it's all justified by what someone else does or doesn't do ,,,,,if something is a crime then it's a crime ,it doesn't need to be compared to something completely unrelated. And it's not guilt by association at all,,,if these people are guilty of a crime then they are guilty ,,,end of story ! As for being "stupid" surely anyone who's a union member would welcome their union being stopped from ripping them off ,,cause if they're happy to be screwed over by their alleged advocates then that is "a special kind of stupid"

Again, its rationalising crime , so the LNP gets more money, and yes they will have to owe favours for that money ,,,,but if the only way the labor party can raise funds is by extortion ,theft and ripping off union members does that not say something for what they stand for,,,,Shorten screws the workers while extorting the same company out of hundreds of thousands of dollars ,,,,,and the best defence is the LNP gets money to ! Union bosses steal from the members for house renos ,hookers ,holidays ,parties and the it's all because the LNP has got more donations ,,,,I mean there's union scum getting caught constantly for stealing from the very people they claim to represent ,,,,and it's all because the LNP has better donations! Even the royal commission is a terrible witch hunt ( the fact that it was instigated by a couple of union reps seems irrelevant ) because when you put a dollar value on the crimes it's less than the RC costs to run,,,,since when has that been a decider in stopping crimes! Like I said ALP/green voters are a special kind of stupid!

It's always interesting that labor voters will defend criminals by trying to divert attention, union members /ALP voters must be a special kind of stupid , they get screwed royally by the scum bosses and frantically defend them

I'll look into that ,thanks, I'll have go through all the suggestions and see what will work for me, I mostly use it for getting stuff NC cut so if a freebie will work , on the other hand I'm pretty used to autocad so a copy would make the learning curve pretty easy. Thanks everyone

I've had a lot of people tell me autocad is hard to use and a bit clunky, it's all I've every used, kinda looking forward to learning a new one and see for myself

Hi all, I've been using Auto Cad for a few years but only had a student copy after doing the course at a tafe, the license has now expired and I need to look at getting another program . I mostly do 2D but the 3d looks pretty cool , I see some of the guys here are doing some pretty nice 3d modelling . So the question is what program? I'm open to suggestions, as I said I mostly need it for 2d , and I need it to be reasonably priced, Auto Cad is around $8-9k for the basic package, as I'm not a drafting business ,I just do my own stuff in house, Cheers Matty

Al gores got a great jet,,,at least he's doing his bit for global warming, And what! Al Gore ,,inaccurate?,,,nooo it can't be true ,the poster boy is awesome,,,,I even like the stupid look on his face sitting next to Palmer wondering what the f**k he'd actually endorsed,,, LOL

Lots of ABC supporters here ,,, Anyone But Collingwood

I'm a Queenslander, but I kinda hope NSW does better this year , I mean, there's kids starting high school in NSW who've never seen a blues Origen win, that's kinda sad I reckon Matty

I'd just like to add, if your business is one of the ones I had a go at please don't take it personal, it was meant to be a general whinge at lots of stuff,,,, Matty

I'm definatly not a sparky,but, I don't recall hundreds of deaths from bad leads , I can't actually recall ever seeing anyone lit up after 35 years in workshops and building sites, I'm sure it's happened but it just never seemed to be a huge problem. Also I may be wrong , but doesn't an RCD stop you getting a hit ? When your in business it gets pretty tiring when the "test n tag" people are followed by the fire extinguisher guy ,followed by the first aid box people , then the OH&S scammers do the rounds, then some goose from the Guvmint decides to have a visit ! I had zero claims( or serious accidents) for ten years but my premiums quadrupled in that time , on top of paying for someone else retirement, but of course no one is paying for mine, for me now I'll will never employ another person, ever , it just isn't worth the hassle , I do however take my hat off to those that can make money employing people . Being in business and employing is bloody hard work, I'm still self employed but with no employees all the money grabbers can get stuffed, Matty

SEEK has heaps of jobs , not all of them are sweet $100k plus gigs , but there is plenty of work for a reasonably dexterous person, although it has become increasingly difficult to employ people , I've gone from employing five to just working alone, and making money again,

If you honestly believe that Abbott has single handedly destroyed Australian manufacturing in just six months , you really are better off getting the dole, or maybe go for a union boss job ,(same skill set as a dole bludger) the fringe benefits are awesome

I simply cannot fathom any Australian citizen taking the side of a country that's renowned for corruption ,along with believing the accounts of people who've had their attempt at illegal entry thwarted, it's just hard to believe! Who cares what the Indonesian politicians have to say, apart from the RAN messing with their kickbacks, isn't our sovereignty just as important as theirs?
