Australia has been a fiercely democratic country since the First Fleet arrived and settled in Botany Bay. We inherited that democracy from the British along with the best system of government and law known to humankind.
Throughout the past 200 odd years, we have modified it to suit our culture, geography and the way we view ourselves within the human group of nations. It’s served us well and will continue to do so, but lately there has been a huge assault on our democratic way of life by left-wing, social engineers and tree-hugging loonies whose world is a make believe world where everything is perfect, everyone is like them and everyone is happy. Unfortunately, that’s nothing like the world the rest of us live in. In that world, there are increasing assaults on our democracy.
First of all, take the Federal Government’s move to force legitimate businesses who have invested millions to establish brand names and brand images, to package their legal products in plain paper. As if it wasn’t bad enough to require them to display photos of people suffering from illnesses, some of which are said to have been caused or exacerbated by the use of the products consumed. Now they are supposed to pack their products in plain packaging.
Under successive Labor Governments, and with the help of some weaker Liberal/Coalition Governments, we now find ourselves in a position where everyone else is responsible for what people do, but the people who do it. Everyone who is old enough to read and write knows that cigarettes are unhealthy. People who choose to smoke know the risks and make an informed decision to accept them.
There is currently discussion in Victoria (and probably elsewhere) about introducing a Gambling Card to control the excessive gambling of the few people in our society who are addicted to gambling. We already provide advice, counselling and other support. But now, even those people who can put $10 through a poker machine and go home will also be caught up in this bullshit, bureaucratic system, if it goes ahead.
In the Northern Territory we have the “Intervention” so that predominately indigenous benefactors of government welfare will have difficulty spending their money on booze and still have a few bucks left for food each pay day. Because they aren’t intelligent enough themselves to manage their affairs, the government has to do it for them.
In Alice Springs (NT) tomorrow a floor price will be placed on all alcoholic drinks sold in the town so that those low income pensioners and others who were buying cheap alcohol will now have to fork out more. Why? Because a handfull of people can’t manage their drinking habit. That’s right. Everyone who buys alcohol will now pay more because some people can’t control their drinking. Once again the burden is placed on the wrong people. What will the drunks do for themselves … nothing, zip, zilch, zero. Fuck all!
We have a government that is pushing a massive new Carbon Tax to make it look like Australia is leading the field in climate management even though scientists can’t agree whether we can do anything or even if there is a climate crisis. However, on closer analysis, it is nothing but a cynical way to screw the so-called wealthy and give the money back to the low-income earners. The government has said low income earners (mainly Labor voters) will get back more than they paid out in carbon tax.
When I was at university studying accounting, I’m sure one of my lectures was about taxation and how it had to be efficient, effective, fair, ethical and so on. If a tax is implemented that adversely affects people, how can that be a good tax? A good tax should not adversely affect anyone.
The government did not have a democratically given right to implement this tax. Out goes a bit more democracy.
Now, the greatest threat to our democracy comes from our unbridled immigration of muslims who follow an ideology, the prime intent of which is to take over every nation on the planet and Islamize it. There is no democracy in Islam. Worse still, there is no freedom. You either shape up or get killed. It’s that serious about it’s aims.
While we can probably suffer a little loss of democracy as the government tries to socially engineer the masses, we cannot afford to lose our democratic way of life to Islam. Islam will not only snuff out our way of life, it will snuff out our freedom, some of our lives, and if it succeeds, a wonderful country like Australia will become an Islamic country with all the poverty, lack of intellect, stupidity, superstition, anger, and tribal squabbling that has held muslim countries back in the dark ages for 1400 years.
Unfortunately, Islam has not done one scrap of good for anyone anywhere with the sole exception of Mohammed, it’s pedophile, warlord founder who was able to enlist his warriors and slaves at the end of a sword. One benefactor in 1400 years isn’t much to crow about now is it?
If you don’t want to become a Jihad statistic or live under Islam, do some research, write to your local Member of Parliament , form a local action group, join other groups and never, ever surrender.
