I don't disagree with any of that, because its a more practical post than "let them in and they will build kt"

Do you think when people say that they really think it is totally unplanned, or do you think they simplify the statement on a footy board? Knowing full well that we can deal with the situation and create a better country for everyone using whichever practical means are most appropriate, or do you expect them to do a complete thesis on it?

It's not like we have a perfect microcosm of an example in 1920s USA or anything.

People doing life and getting shot for cannabis possession in the US is ludicrous beyond any reason. Especially when a kilometre away it could be legal.

It's an excuse for slavery, pure and simple. Lock em up and get them to do the work you want.

Criminalisation of drug users is the biggest criminal act in history and one day will be seen as such.

It shits me to tears that New Zealand has been able to legalise marijuana and gay marriage faster than we could open a tinnie of Southwark Green Death, and I'm going old school on the beer reference to match the majority mindset. They're probably going to change their flag soon as well.

They've got the population of Victoria and they're kicking our arse.

That's why, not so many conflicts of interest and no real state parochialism.

Why do you think there are so many religions now? Every new one was an attempt to merge and create the ultimate one, from Islam to Sikhism and on to Christian Science, the splitters were supposed to be the joiners.

They need to try harder - or give up. Personally, I'm for giving up. I've been a follower of give-uperism for nearly 40 years.

We spend billions of dollars on crap , more then half of which is money being sent overseas and is obsolete almost immediately ...


My post was basically saying that if you're argument is that we can't afford to help ourselves before helping refugees i saying we have the money to help ourselves already. We are just spending it wrong.

160 billion for defense ?

I'm less interested in our military being armed with rockets and tanks and fighter jets and helicopters and armoury out the waa zoo that we pay billions for and more interested in utilising the skills we have in that huge trained workforce that could be doing better work. If the Australian defense force's mandate is to protect the Australian people I would say that health concerns and lack of proper access to clean water and medical concerns and cancer and heart disease are killing Australians. More Australians have probably died from some unbelievable obscure accident then to some dangerous enemy.

I would argue that 10 less helicopters with serious firepower and stealth technology that won't be worth sfa in 1 years time when technology moves anyway costing 3 billion would be better spent on schools , hospitals, nurses , research , police and infrastructure. I would bet both my nuts that the latter would create more jobs , even for manufacturing here....

The arms race has been the biggest fleecing of governments since the invention of the politician.

How many machines have been built , sold , delivered , with people trained on them only to have the 'enemy' develop counter technology that has rendered them useless immediately.


Even if there are new wars coming they will be fought in new ways..

In times when a single bomb can destroy cities , and Countries fates rest on the strength of their dollar and economy new wars could be fought through subterfuge and hacking. Hell , in a lot of cases it doesn't even serve a country to screw up another country if their economies are so closely linked as to cause something like another global recession ..

You would be better served spending less money on missiles and more on the smartest programmers and the like you can get thinking about defense in a new way.

It would be nice to live in a fantasy world full of lollipops and rainbows...but unfortunately mate, we don't. The defence industry world wide is massive, and from a financial point of view companies are more likely to try to become a part of it than avoid it. It is like power. It would be lovely to re-discover Tesla's secrets and pull electricity out of the air for free. Free energy, what a wonderful thing. But, so much of our infrastructure is geared around producing energy that if it ceased it would cause anarchy world wide. Doomsayers for decades predicted that post Peak Oil Production would bring down nations...imagine closing down energy production altogether? Imagine shutting down defence industries altogether? As much as it would be an ideal world, it ain't ever going to happen, because money

They lost a wicket and declared. Wicket taker was Latham. Only bowled 1.1 overs. Should have brought him on earlier.
