Albo has never held a real Job, always was a labor lackey, so what he lived in social housing and his Mum was a single parent, this did not set him up to be the prime minister of this great country, many of us emigrant(i came here 56 years  ago), when you could walk to a new job the next day if you didnt like it always was more jobs than workers, then came the labor /socialist party to power ,downhill we all went , rents went up, morgage went up, fuel went up, labor spend like there is no tomorrow,taxes go up,yada yada yada, why do we as a nation keep voting  these no talent pollies (on both sides)  to power, we are not all fools, is it because the 2 party system splits us into different sides, the greens are a waste of taxpayers money to pay them, indepentants never achieve much at all ,One Nation seems to attract some strange people (but i do like the sentiments they espouse). we need strong politicians that see that our back is now up against the wall and take strong measures to counter this, relying on asia for our fuel is stupid, asians think we are all racist in Aus, they can bring us to our knees anytime they want, we as a country cannot survive without fuel and forget going full solar it is not ideal for the vastness of our great country, immigration should be stopped completely we are full up . As a country we need to go fully independant for our safety and advancement, yes i think we should go slightly isolationist for a while bring us back to a even keel, I am in the last years of my life , so wont see changes but i hope my kids and grandkids do

I appreciate that and yes that is called having a opinion on both of our points of view and being able to accept that rite now days seems to be something that the left doesnt believe we should have

Firstly, TDS is certainly a thing to worry about. Observing the derangement of trump should be a warning to us all. Yeah  I do know the intended meaning of TDS.... but the yanks were seldom good at irony. It would be clearer if they put the apostrophy after the middle word, but the yanks don't do proper grammar either.

 

The positive side of watching 'Good Ole USA' going down it's own self made gurgler, is that we have the option of learning from it. 

 

The lesson goes way beyond "Don't put a raving nutcase in charge of the place!".

 

Our leaders SHOULD be taking notes on how badly certain policies can turn out. Are they watching the cause and effect of eash fiasco in the american clown show? It should make it easier for our political observers to work out smarter ways to run our own country.

 

Sadly (In my opinion) we are following too closely behind USA instead of steering clear of the biggest sinhle cause of government erosion. The rise of the oligarcs - the ones with obscene wealth. The ones who can and do buy and sell just about every politicion and policy with their small change. The ones who fund 'Super Pacs'  etc.

 

The politicians (not just their party leaders) do not sing to the tune of the majority of the populace.

 

There is no point in saying 'Oh but there are some pollies with ethics', unless the majority have ethics, the political system is owned by the big players.

 

So, my challenge to you is this..... what would you propose to change this ?

 

Cos I have no effin idea.
