Kevin Rudd - Krazy Kevin responds to the Global Financial Crisis

[superslothable]

Ok?

[lehong1963]

@billy5858  ha ha now chinks we get more work from australia, cant afford to make here becuse carbon tax, ha ha, we make for you in china nor problem no carbon tax in china, we make for 2cents

[tedrewq]

youre a freaking moron ya dumd arse

[toranacar]

Rudd must be the biggest clueless dickhead ex PM in Australian history; his greatest clueless dickhead challenger is Gillard

[Hammersley1967]

"Kevin Rudd splurging every last cent of tax payers money"

Every last cent? A SLIGHT exaggeration don't you think?

Do we have egg on our faces now?

We were the only country in the G20 that avoided a recession...

If we didn't spend the money, and spend it promptly as he did, we would be in a hell of a lot more debt than we are now...

Why? Because economic collapse would have meant less taxes could be collected.

Get it? No? Didn't think so...

Typical of economically ignorant Australians....

[toranacar]

@Hammersley1967 Be aware of the double dip resection numb nuts. The only reason we didn’t have a recession is due to Howard and Costello economic management, and partly due to previous Labor reform and our mining, which is going to get kicked in the guts by Labor. Sick of you 34% Labor lying fools.

Now we have Greens controlling the country, if you’re a dirty bludger you’ll be right but if you earn a quid you’ll be fucked.

[Hammersley1967]

@toranacar

"The only reason we didn’t have a recession is due to Howard and Costello economic management, and partly due to previous Labor reform and our mining"

Do you want to explain that? What were the exact economic dynamics of "Howard and Costello economic management" and "previous Labor reform" and "mining" that supposedly facilitated an aversion of two successive quarters of negative growth in '08/'09?

I challenge you to fill that baseless claim out with some economic elaboration...

[toranacar]

Mate you reckon you're the expert, good luck. If you think Rudd the dud was so damn good along with the Duck, then you make up a very small percentage buddy. Any economic expert I have heard talked about the sugar hit of the $900 cheque, and the BER which started after the financial hit and will continue for another 3 - 4 years, not even mentioned they are building shit that is largely not needed. Like build an assembly hall but not the shitty old toilet they need. Give your self an upper cut

[toranacar]

Dudd/Duck/Lizard the economic genius lol

[cobra60six]

LAughed my arse off......but sadly the satire is much more truth than fiction, we really are going for broke!!

[Hammersley1967]

@cobra60six

"sadly the satire is much more truth than fiction"

*SIGH*

No, it's fiction...

Not a shred of truth in it...

[RagingBlitz]

Actually Australia is performing, better than all the OECD countries at the moment.

This video has all its facts wrong.

Do some research before you flame K-Rudd

[Hammersley1967]

@RagingBlitz

"Actually Australia is performing, better than all the OECD countries at the moment."

You got THAT right!

And it's a DIRECT result of the stimulus spending...

This video is typical of those ignorant of economic dynamics...

[toranacar]

@Hammersley1967 Oh really, I thought Labor logic was the economy is going well only because of our mining. Oh that’s right it was because of our mining when Howard was in power. Now it’s due to Labor economic management. Labor wanker

With all the Labor fuck ups how can you sit and defend these assholes.

The BER stimulus started after the Australian economic down turn ended as it really lasted for a couple of months. The down turn was mainly America/Europe/UK.

[Hammersley1967]

@toranacar

THE FACTS: After recording a fall in GDP of 0.5% over last 3 months of 2008, the economy then grew by 0.4% in the first 3 months of 2009. Since a recession is defined as two successive quarters of negative growth, Australia avoided recession. Rudd produced a stimulus package of $26 billion, cut personal taxes and increased pensioner payments. While some of the stimulus was used by Australians to reduce debt and increase savings, enough filtered through to keep retailing afloat. : - )

[Hammersley1967]

@toranacar

"The BER stimulus started after the Australian economic down turn ended as it really lasted for a couple of months. The down turn was mainly America/Europe/UK."

Yes, way to go stating the obvious...

Due to swift stimulus spending the retail sector stayed afloat and buoyed Australia thought the GFC - narrowly, but definitely, avoiding recession...

Economics isn't your strong suit is it?

Although you're really good at vacuous comments that are full of inane attempts at insults...

[vk4akp]

That's very funny. But it's a shame they knifed him in the back he was a good PM and good for the country. .-.-.

[ultrachasersfan]

Politics are a joke. Kevin Dudd looks like that smart-arse kid in the Little Rascles

[TrustyJakko]

HES SO HIGH im WRITING IN CAPS

[shazam75]

LOL

[driftmont]

funny but true

[silvybling]

I had no issues with Mr. Rudd. After John Howard Froze my Wages for 3 years caused my Marriage breakdown & further costs on top of inflation, yet as Politicians they carry on Like Kids arguing & achieving nothing but how many Pay Rises have they had in the last few years. I can see what Mr. Rudd has done. He was right to freeze their wages too. We hear about the Insulation incident, but we don't hear about the Land QLD sold to U.S Corporation that Dammed water from flowing to the Darling & Murry

[regz321]

Im having a FIT

[wolfiefromaussie]

This is really not funny....It sounds like one of russel brand's shows...just a loudmouth bloke shouting and attempting to be funny

[toymachine76]

Love it

[shalz777]

Australian`s actually voted for this dudd.

Don`t depend on Julia , she thinks exactly like this dudd,

She`s one of the 4 idiots in the labour party  anyway

[fargonebewdy]

IF.... (that's a big IF)......, this romantic cocksucker's s-t-o-o-p-i-d and incompetent semi-nationalisation of our mining industry gets legislated, he should apologise to ALL Australians for destroying our economic mainstay and fucking us up big time. Marxist idiot.

[MisterCellophane372]

Didn't we like stave off recession or something? The economy, despite being in debt, is still motoring along unlike certain other countries?

[danielmy08]

@MisterCellophane372 ...It was massive debt that saw these "other countries" get in the sh*t....just look at what happened recently in Greece with their massive debt crisis....the same thing could happen here if the Rudd gov't saw another term...thankfully enough ppl have cottoned on to his incompetance and will kick him to the kerb at the next election.

[Hammersley1967]

@danielmy08

"It was massive debt that saw these "other countries" get in the sh*t....just look at what happened recently in Greece with their massive debt crisis....the same thing could happen here if the Rudd gov't saw another term"

You're COMPLETELY confused.

Greece, Ireland, the UK, etc, are in debt because they DIDN'T spend the the money to stimulate the economy.

The more economic infrastructure that collapses, the less tax can be collected.

Australia avoided recession because it SPENT.

[camperconcepts]

Check out Kevin Rudd Labour Pains, Fu#*+n funny

[Aikon904]

Excellent work Cyrius01!

[bankslayer]

Could you please do a video about the Super Profits Tax and the fact it only applies to miners and no other industry (my gripe - why not the bloody banks, at least the mining company my husband subcontracts to isn't stealing from us - unlike the bank which committed fraud - long story and sadly I digress...) I'm offended by the tax on the grounds it is a tax on profits - if they reckon the miners aren't paying enough tax then change the loopholes that allow them to minimise tax don't tax PROFIT

[figaz555]

@bankslayer

Totally right. Is this government suffering from myopia so badly that they forget that profit is used to expand business? I wouldn't be surprised that in 10 years all these companies are owned by China (partly because of the debt) No company should be forced to break even just to simply fund those without jobs and get drug addicts new livers.

[combatwombat71]

Absolutely love it! You have hit the nail on the head, and shown it exactly how it is. Well done :-)

[cadam007]

if that money is going to build brothels i wanna sample of the service

[bushdidit2u911]

awesome vid! love the stimulus bit and the hydro shops! lol rudd is an idiot

[SackKevinRudd]

I would like to know how long it is going to take to pay off the debt that Kevin Rudd has got us into.

I bet it will take a lot longer than any recession would have lasted.

Personally I would have preferred a 3 to 5 year recession, than 20 - 30 years of being in debt.

At least the money could have been spent wisely. I suppose that is asking a bit much from Kevin Rudd.

He was quick to appologise to the Aboriginees, when is he going to appologise to all Australians for stuffing up our country.

[themios72]

unbelievable so true. great video. kevin rudd indeed has gone mad.

[xpdshn79]

That was the best

[TruckinAussie]

WELL, I've been brought up as a traditional ALP voter, i'm a believer in the union system if its not over-board, BUT i've had enough of Rudd, his polocies are hurting the lower & middle income more than i can remember ever !

[timekeeper002]

SO TRUE !

RUDD is a danger !

[Tuathalful]

Get over your obsession with debt being bad morons! You really either know fucking nothing about economics or are spinsters of the neo-cons if you are arguing debt during a global economic downturn has to be a bad thing. Labor are making up for Howard's fuckups. They are fixing the structural deficit, they're repairing our neglected health and welfare systems, they doing what the majority of Australians elected them to do. You pathetic whinging Liberal stooges need to suck it up and stfu.

[dirtstyle69]

Hey BIG SPENDER.....

[1CaptainAustralia1]

@Tuathalful neo cons? Liberal stooges? lol, you don't sound blinded by your ideology at all....

[figaz555]

@Tuathalful

O yeah, I forgot that an overall debt of 1 trillion dollars over the next 15 years was a good thing. Whoops we Liberals must be soo thick.

[cityslickeroz]

OZ Property market on a 1 way road to hell, Look out people and DON'T believe the hype

[solentgreen2020]

just look at the dept were in the interest alone will take years to pay off. i think the shine wiil soon fade when they roll in all the new taxes to pay for it.rudd.s got a army of nerds thinking up new ways to screw us. The first one will be a congestion tax for all who drive into the city enjoy . Just think of it as helping the earth as china pumps tons of crap into the ocean every day .

[MRMILO57]

It's funny, Kevin Rudd puts of this christain family man image, yet I know  a little secret.

If anyone ever talks to Kevin Rudd, ask him how's Laurie Oaks (9 news political reporter), have they had contact with each other lately!...physcially speaking!

[Overjoyedmeteor]

lol thats a good video

i reckon johnny would be going just fine rite now, kevin should have won i reckon

[elfornse]

We have to unite and support Abbot now so we can kick this commie outta Government. The only reason Rudd wants Climate Change Tax is so the UN can become our One World Government and Rudd is vying to be the Secretary General...Can You imagine????? Rudd, Ruler of the World!! It doesn't matter if you hate Abbott or Liberals or whatever. If this tax goes through it won't matter who you vote for cause the UN will call the shots. We're about to get raped so Kick This Guy Out Australia!!!!

[wildcrazygoats]

Are you really such a total fucking moron?

Or is this a parody of the right wing loonies who have taken over the Liberal Party?

[ufo8mycat]

This is awesome.

Just too bad that, you know, it worked and Australia avoided recession and is emerging from the GFC better than or as good as any other western economy, hey!

[elfornse]

Don't count your chickens just yet on that one. Remember Kev put all that on Australias credit card.....and when it comes time to pay the Chinese their money back, Kev will expect you to foot the bill.....and its one freakin big bill!

[68Trueblue]

we were never in any recession. Our economy was in good shape and we didnt have the same problems as the US with their insane lending.

What we do have now is 150 billion in debt, and out of control interest rates.

[embers17]

Hilarious. So who is the mama and who is the daddy: Krudd or Garret??

[sasmick1]

rudd is scum and should be jailed for treason.he will ruin australia.and hes already started.grow some intelligance australia.labor is not for the people at state or federal lavels.rudds a dudd

[shanodude]

Look at the vocal minority pretending their wacky right wing views are normal.

amazing, Howard neglected this country to the tune of $200 bill. surplus = taxed too much or the govt aren't doing enough. with Howard, it was both.

Labor again has 2 fix it till the Libs win some time afta 2020 and tip the balance back to the filthy rich with gems like work choices" and fair pay comish. Lets not forget AWB & children overboard lies, "i will never introduce a gst, lie, & refused to say sorry.

[unhingeddavo]

umm, hello, have you heard of "saving"? It's not over-taxing or under-spending, It's growing a surplus so that in the event of a disaster - whether financial (as we have experienced) or natural, that money would be there to help out. Can you try to imagine our debt, had there not been such a large surplus to buffer us? Please consider our debt now WITH that buffer.

[shanodude]

um hello have u heard of most of Howards windffall came from china buying all that stuff we have in the dirt? yes the buffer did it's job of helping but obiously we needed more.

you say "Can you try to imagine our debt, had there not been such a large surplus to buffer us?"

so, r u admitting that the debt is necessary? because if u ask the floposition, the say we shouldn't spend th money but spend it here, don't spend but slow it down. they bleet to get headlines but agree with whats happening.

[68Trueblue]

the reason they sell the minerals is because we no longer have any other source of income. Free trade has destroyed our manufacturing and the farmers cant grow anything because nothing has been done about water.

[obaia]

shanodude Where were you in 1996. Labor Dept 96 billion unemployment 8.5% Wages rose every year if you look. Labor fix what. It took ten years to fix it after keating was PM. Bob Hawke froze wages to give the rich a go. Google in "kevin Rudd lies" for a comparison. states the lie and the source.

[shanodude]

isn't it strange that without the stimulous spending we WOULD be in a recession...

1 of the only developed countries on the planet NOT going backwards... and you want to complain. I hope you enjoy your job.

[obaia]

shanodude GEE LUCKY HOWARD HAD THE PLACE IN SUCH GOOD SHAPE. or did you think it was Rudd spending future taxes that put us in a top position to weather the recession.

[Focoist911]

I will put 1` million dollars on it that the same guy who produced Crazy John's adds produced this one. As in - its not a creative parady by someone else - Its actually the guy.

[supersteph5]

HAHAHA.. that is sooo true.

[chotaboy66]

Go do some research before you dismiss my claims as your misguided not me buddy

Or you might just want to keep drinking sodium flouride ,rat poison ,Toxic aluminium waste ,YES they are uping it to toxic levels again just for people like your self for even questioning people like myself ..drink up blind freddy and watch plenty idiot TV as your government loves you .Although again you do question me so there might be hope for you before you WAKE UP with some nasty disease in a few years to come.

[lindsaypeters]

Good on you Cyrius. You are right that "growth" is seen as the cure all. How come we never seem to twig that perpetual growth on a finite planet is almost a contradiction in terms?

[unhingeddavo]

Nicely put.

[chotaboy66]

Kevin rudd is a criminal for poisoning our tap water with excessive toxic wast our air with his secret early morning chem spraying and now our food in the new year with codex alimentarius He iwill be found guilty of 3 counts of pre meditated HIGH TREASON against or basic birth rights of the australian people I would not give all the money in the world to be in his boots now.

[lordbyrne]

choto... wtf r u on bout?

[chotaboy66]

Its called eugenics soft kill you have no idea what these crims are doing behind your back dont you!!l,, people should open there eyes to what is happening around the world and dont think your bullet proof just living here in Australia AUSTRALIA IS THE LAND OF THE SHEEPLE AND THE WOLF IS ONLY METERS AWAY.

[lordbyrne]

dude... u need help, seriosuly

[AussieJiminThailand]

Hang on a minute, last time it was John Howard, now it is Kevin Rudd...John made the country money but you didn't like John. Kevin spends the money, which was predicatable and get Australia in debt, this is not just Kevin its the labour party in general around the world.....What did you expect, the labour party always gets the country in debt, then the we turn back to the liberal party, once things are good you forget about what the labour partiey does and re-elect them.....the grass is greener.

[ironmunga]

That's right there wasn't,but your still a fuckwit.

[lehong1963]

mr rudd number 1, he make china people very rich, i have many houses pay good rent to sily azie, my children have house to. you have respect for rudd he good man , i porr before now i rich

[billy5858]

GET BACK ON YOUR BOAT and go work for 2 cents an hour you fucking nip

[aPAPERSTATE]

One term in, the next term out.

[gvarhelyi]

ha ha ha love the face!! good one!

[sheeplols]

lol you sound INSANE and I <3 it!!

[Lueco]

Go for growth, how else can you move forward? Maybe this country needs to be scared into spending n give up some of our cash. Look at the States! They got Obama now sayin the same thing. Move on people and enjoy the new world. Fuck the old fashion idiots. Just be yourself and spend what you want the economy is going to kick back as it always does!!!!

[ironmunga]

You should thank the guy for getting us out of a John Howard recession.

[ratchet5]

Your an idiot. There was no recession with john howard. We aere making a tonn of money.

[ironmunga]

Malcom Turnbullshit

[HolfyDotCom]

Very Clever :D

Nice Work!

[realestaterefund]

great video.....well done....pity it is so true

[marcus2x2]

That was marvelous!

[MrJohncurtin]

Rudd seems so generous, but allows thousands of Kiwis to go hungary, mothers and children totaly unable to get welfare if they lose their job since howards immigration law of 2001 was used to disallow benefits. Pay TAX yes, get help when you need it NO. Even if you get injured at work the same applies.

[balancedaustralia]

"Global Financial Crisis": Kevin Rudd's best ally!

This labour people have no idea of what they are doing (or un-doing?)!

[v19d]

@balancedaustralia In America the Global Financial Crisis is Obama's best friend.

[brentoneccles]

It's not only his damage per se. Any politician would've mostly done the same in his position.

And no, I don't support him. I don't support any politician.

[CaptainEagle09]

Hear, hear!

[wdgann111]

I would have laughed at this if Rudd's damage to Australia was not so serious

[DaveC86]

wow this video turned into conspiracy nut central... i wish there were more rational people that opposed government expansion.. instead people like me get grouped in with the NWO crowd.

[Focoist911]

Well you should join the NWO resistance then. The fact is there is a globalist elite running this world.

They need internationalist policies introduced under any guise. The GLobal Warming hysteria is the best one they ever come up with. That conspiracy was drafted in the 70s - Its in their own fucking words. They publish books boasting about their supremacy IN YOUR FACE.

9 out of 10 billionaires in the world are jews. DO THE FUCKING MATHS YOU MORON.

[brentoneccles]

NWO resistance? They exist because of us. Because we uphold this system. because of the lazy and ignorant public.

We need a total redesign of our culture, if anything. Because if the elite do exist as you say, they'll just keep coming back if we keep things as they are.

[Focoist911]

You need to assassinate Kevin Rudd and John Howard on the same day. Then the Australian public will remember who controls this country - THE PEOPLE.

I tried to start the Australian Civil War Movement, a solely terrorist organisation, but the ASIO came and tried to lock me up for my political views, in a mental asylum. So I fled Australia to Switzerland where my banks were.

[germanicelt]

The NWO is real. The global elite admit it. It's just not something that is in the reality of most people like you who see the world the way the tv media display it as. For people to believe that there are no conspiracies of the financial elite in the world, they are the ones that still possess this kindergarten mentality that everything and everyone is so pure and honest. How I envy you.

[Focoist911]

Dont know why you envy me. You seem to be in the same boat.

I jsut wish some aussie digger's son would assassinate KR and JH on the same day and that would send a clear shock wave through the enitre elitist world. B link again and you'll be next.

[germanicelt]

My comment then was directed at DaveC86.

I don't think assassinating JH would do any good now. He's gone. But I'm not sure killing anyone is a good idea anyway. Would do you think about Costello? Is he anti-globalist enough for you.

[Focoist911]

I didn't say assassinate JH. I said assassinate KR AND JH on the same day. That would send a clear and present shock wave through the globalist elite across the entire world and inspire even more assassinations of war criminals. Costello? I dont think there is one person in Canberra who is not a globalist slut.

[spanishaustralian]

thats a bit much, remember these guys are puppets to a massive beaurocracy which really is the engine behind all this corruption.

Kevin Rudd has no idea

[germanicelt]

Knowing the stupidity of the Australian people, they will probably like Rudd even more after see this.

[DaveC86]

i know, most of my friends think hes doing an AWESOME job.

political apathy is what is wrong with the world.

[germanicelt]

Yeah, even my sister said he's okay. He is selling the middle class out to the banking cartels ie. owners of the RBA. Of course if you watch the ABC they just have the opposition on their show to interrogate over why they oppose what the government is doing, and effectively brainwashing the view to believe what the "owners" want.

[DaveC86]

lol good stuff. god damn fucking taxes.. i can't wait to see our budget my kids kids kids will be paying rudds bills.

[Focoist911]

A govenrment can always just print money if they need it - this is effectively tax.

The real reason governments have income-tax is so that they know what everyone is doing, how they are making money.

[germanicelt]

If the government can issue a bond, it can issue its own dollar bill. They don't need to borrow "imaginary" money from a PRIVATE central bank ie. RBA, Federal Reserve, Bank of England, and then have to pay interest on it. No wonder they need to tax our income. To pay the interest to the central bank owners. In fact, taxing income is unconstitutional because it is not profit, just an exchange for our labor. It only started in WWI.

[Focoist911]

and who owns the private central banks? Mostly elite jewish Zionist scum.

BUt in Australia, the population has been wanked so much with HOlocaust propaganda that they are blind to the fact their entire country has been taken over by jews.

[germanicelt]

Well if you listen to John Todd who once sat on the council of 33, he said most of them are Gaelic. The Jews have been incorporated in because Israel is very important to the globalists. Just look at Rudds wife, Jewish. I find it strange she didn't take his name. But Zionism is just a branch of the Illuminati, they are being used too. The Elite don't want to share power with anyone, not even there own race. They want it all for themselves. So it doesn't really matter what name we put on them.

[Focoist911]

Or you could listen to one of your Prime Ministers:

W. HUGHES, PM of Australia, Saturday Evening Post, June 19, 1919 "The Montefiores have taken Australia for their own, and there is not a gold field or a sheep run from Tasmania to New South Wales that does not pay them a heavy tribute. They are the real owners of the antipodean continent. What is the good of our being a wealthy nation, if the wealth is all in the hands of German Jews?"

"Illuminati" makes it all Shoot in the dark.

[chriswoodmanthatman]

This is an extremely funny video-nice work..............I have no doubt Kev will use it in the next election campaign.

[myfeeling4you]

it's hard to believe aussies are so stupid to believe Rudd knows what he is doing. All he wants to do is ramp up the white collar sector while destroying the blue collar sector, this is clearly seen by favoring developers who buy up industrial land, get it rezoned and create more residential areas. All you see now are warehouses while manufacturing goes overseas. Rudd made more sense when in opposition against Joe Hockey, being PM has his head in the clouds.

[ClassicalRenaissance]

This is great! A creative way to take on the insnaity of Rudd, whose trying to throw money at a problem but not looking at the causes. This crisis was caused by speculation and gambling under a deregulated economy of globalization. Trying to return things to "normal" so bankers, etc. can start doing it again is simply insane. Both Labor and Liberal fail the economics test - Look to Lyondon LaRouche's record and policies for a solution.

[doognadoshi]

Yer but you fail even more at economics. Why is it that noone asks were all this greed and speculation originated? In a proper free market greed is always evenly counterbalanced by the opposing force of fear. That is the fear to lose money. For decades govt. institutions and central banks have been removing fear from the market via implicit govt. gaurentees, cheap credit, and bailouts. Deregulation my arse. The only "insnaity" is in the minds of Keynesians like you.

[ClassicalRenaissance]

Dear Mr Doogi,

I am humoured that you think I am actually a Keynesian. In fact, in real world history, the model of a perfect 'free trade' system is what the British Empire imposed upon China in 1840, addicting them to Opium for profits, while also starving the people of India and forcing them into slave labour. Balancing 'Fear' with 'gambling' as a model for economics is just a wee bit mystical for the practical person. There is a better alternative in history, known as the 'American System'.

[deagsy]

Saw it on Q and A with more sound effects which were awesome. Seems like a trend with the ALP... get voted in by most of the the workers and it's always the workers who pay.

[Focoist911]

"Seems like a trend with the ALP" - are you still under the mushroom cloud mate? MOst of us are waking up fast that there is no left right anymore boy. Sorry to break your heart little boy, its all the same party, we are in a CORPORATOCRACY otherwise known as FASCISM.

And if you want to know the general direction of the enemy, look to Israel.

Otherwise, go take your meds and go back to sleep.

[deagsy]

Clearly they are not the same. I did not refer to right and left. I assume you are one of those radicals trying to start a revolution by joining some useless one policy party.

You do whatever works. It doesn't matter if it is a left or right policy as long as it works. Rudd's are not working.

Join a real political party and start working for change in the party/Australia. If you have something worthwhile to say then people will listen.

Hint: ALP Pledge = FAIL

From little things big things grow.

[Focoist911]

"Join a real political party and start working for change in the party/Australia." - Party politics is what destroyed democracy in Australia.

The Washminster system we have was never intended to operate under dominating line parties.

Anyway deagsy, something must be said about the level of slave mentality of Australians to have voted against a Republic in their last referendum.

A very important book on Au politics is called Getting Our Houses In Order.

[deagsy]

Australia has more than two politcal parties that arn't useless. You're right conscious votes would be ideal(Pledge FAIL).

I'd vote against a Republic simply because if the ALP implements it, it is bound to be full of fail (dont forget what we are allowing to government to do here). Prove to me it would be any better than the current system. Also we are changing what has been Australia for many years now. I can understand reluctance to change. Also its probably too expensive to do at present.

[Focoist911]

". Also we are changing what has been Australia for many years now. I can understand reluctance to change. Also its probably too expensive to do at present." - So like I said, you have a slave mentality. You enjoy being a feudal serf of the British monarchy. Thats the fact. You are a slave.

I'll have black with two thanks mate. Off you go coffee boy.

[deagsy]

Prove to me (and the rest of Australia) it's better. You can't and you know you can't. So why would I let the ALP make this country better? When they can't even get 18 months in government right. Would you let Kevin Rudd do this? Of course you fuckin wouldn't. I cannot begin to understand the logic behind your viewpoint and it is very frustrating for me. I'm done here. I don't think we can agree on this one.

[Focoist911]

The Queen sacked out prime minster not long ago.

Do I need any more proof?

If you want proof of how screwed and corruptable the current system is go and read the very simple book GETTING OUR HOUSES IN ORDER by Dean Jaensch

[OmegaRage]

I thought you were a lefty and a Rudd supporter Cyrius? What happened?

[Cyrius01]

Rudd is a lefty? :-)

[Focoist911]

Lefty Righty.

You guys really are this dumb? Its all 2 dimensional is it?

Sorry, last time I looked in the mirror I was 3 dimensional.

You fools have been brainwashed since the day you watched the bear in there.

[Cyrius01]

Are you only three dimensional? Nobody said 'righty' until you mentioned it. I just questioned whether Rudd is a lefty, that doesn't automatically suggest that the only alternative is that he is right-wing, in fact by questioning it, I am suggesting that there is a lot more to it, just like you suggest. Much as questioning the existence of the christian or islamic god doesn't make one a 'believer' in atheism, rather it suggests that reality may well in fact be far more mind-blowing.
