Kochie's had enough of people whinging about Trump & "holier than thou celebs weighing in" lol ... our prez has spoken stfu you lot

Sorry but our prez has always been an insufferable cretin in every field other than the field of being our prez.
 

That photo reminds me of this...

Kochie has done a lot for Port and he can do some mean calcs.

His political views are absolute naff
He's no Trump fan infact he tipped Hillary in a landslide I think he was making the point lets wait til there is something tangible to whinge about as the bloke has been in for 5 minutes etc.
 
I may be wrong but I thing you're misreading Janus on that point. I don't think it was a stab at Obama at all.

Hmm, have another read.

Apparently taking the job seriously is a sign of pomposity.

Perhaps it should be "The Sort of Last Jedi Because Rey Will Get Trained Then We Will Have Two Jedi and Then The Garbage Man Will Become A Jedi Too and Then They Will Have Jedi Babies Saving The Jedi Order Then That Kid Kylo Ren Can Be An Uncle To Them Because He Is Going To Turn To The Light Side Also Lasers Pew Pew The End"

Interesting listening to 5aa this morning and there's a shit fight over a Bunnings going in the Mitcham Council. The residents association dude (who is against the development) said that it would destroy nearby businesses and that a lot of them were local residents and we should protect that. Sound familiar?

... and therein lies the problem with protectionist economic theory. It creates a cascade to the point where it ultimately ends in breaking apart businesses ability to *trade*. Which is what Trump supporters forget. Trade is a two way deal, protectionist policy might mean you import less, but in turn you also export less, meaning your potential market shrinks.

The US exported:
  1. Machines, engines, pumps: US$205.8 billion (13.7% of total exports)
  2. Electronic equipment: $169.8 billion (11.3%)
  3. Aircraft, spacecraft: $131.1 billion (8.7%)
  4. Vehicles: $127.1 billion (8.4%)
  5. Oil: $106.1 billion (7.1%)
  6. Medical, technical equipment: $83.4 billion (5.5%)
  7. Plastics: $60.3 billion (4%)
  8. Gems, precious metals, coins: $58.7 billion (3.9%)
  9. Pharmaceuticals: $47.3 billion (3.1%)
  10. Organic chemicals: $38.8 billion (2.6%)
If you limit your trading partners ability to sell their products in your country you don't get to keep selling your products in theirs.

It's absolute folly.
 
Yeah I'm not a fan, it just feels very obvious and unimaginative.

Probably an unpopular opinion here but as far as titles go The Phantom Menace is easily the best of the lot IMO.
Yeah I have to agree, shame about the movie, Qui gon has to be the worst Jedi ever.
 
I should play that game again. One of my all time favourites.

Yup. I liked Katarn and the fact he was a Jedi who was effectively based. Didn't care for the light or dark side but did what was right, not necessarily what was 'good'.

There is plenty about Trump that is very tangible. His cabinet nominations for example. His inauguration speech for example.

and I don't mean just Trump. Koch had a typically cliche opine on radio a couple of months back about whining millennials and how they need to harden up. His social views are as progressive as a moss rock.

He has great taste in football clubs. He is a very shrewd fiscal operator. He should leave it at that.

Nah he's right about hyperbole panic you guys will be exhausted by the time you have something real to whinge about.
