We shouldn`t encourage him but Senator Glort does have a sort of ring to it. :laugh:

Pffft! Could you imagine me in Politics?
I'd be assassinated the 2nd day.

50 of us together -might- survive for a while but one on their own would have no chance.  Too many vested interests with too much power behind the scenes pulling the puppets strings to make them dance just as they do to the steps they want them to do.

Me with some power, Ha! I can only Imagine.....

Not to mention the speeches, oh the hours long speeches.  ;D

You could start your own party, then you get to choose which vested interests you want to be bribed by.

First speech should start "We`ll fight them on the servo forecourts."

Hey guys, Glort is right about building them here. Ford and Holden (General Motors) have both recently closed their manufacturing facilities in Australia. The tax payer is now having to pay to feed, house and cloth these people and their families. It shouldn't be too difficult to retrain a person skilled in the production and assembly of motor vehicles to build trains.

The government are always banging on about trying to balance the budget, yet they would rather import trains that won`t work than create employment for our own people.

What a crock of sh1t, shame on them.
Bob

Switzerland is a fine example of how it should be done, spend the money on infrastructure, invest in industry, teach all the people how to safely use firearms to protect themselves. Avoid expenditure on any armament that could be perceived as having an offensive capability.

Consequently they have one of the highest rates of employment, the highest incomes and some of the finest engineers and facilities on the planet. They also have one of the lowest murder rates and avoided being invaded in two world wars.

With all the natural and human resources  at our disposal how come we still have some indigenous people with no education and short life expectancy living in mud huts?

Farming out government investment to foreign countries is madness and only exacerbates the problems, when will we ever learn that we need to look after our own people first because no foreign power is going to?

Can anyone explain to me why we are importing reo-bar, made in China from Australian iron ore and coal, via Spain? It would surely make sense to make our own reo-bar, wouldn`t it? What does it cost to ship this stuff all around the world and what are the environmental consequences?

Rant over,
Bob

Sorry Gents,

But the capital stops at the board meeting and not the legislature.  You're simply blaming the wrong tribe.

How are you combining nuclear warfare with power generated via a nuclear reactor ?

Take a look at the actual numbers of what people die of and get back to us. You will find deaths due to nuclear are very low on the list.
How much first hand experience do you have in the nuclear industry ?

Why do so many people complain about corporate decisions whilst blaming the government?  These failures are a function of the corporate capitalistic model.  Great bait and switching but just not valid.  (A word associated with truth.)

I wonder how the battery powered trucks are going to affect trucking traffic.  This is going to be a really neat ten years.  I hope I make it just for curiosity's sake.
