Let's dumb it down and exclusively blame white government...

Pilger's Christmas Carol?

Most of the problems in aboriginal communities started with Whittlam, & his fool policies, pandering to the socialists academics.

Since then those same academics have come up with so many stupid ideas it is not funny, especially for the subjects in their living experiments.

Come on academics, you've got to go back to the original bargain, you are not honoring your end of that bargain.

You were given those ivory towers to live in, with very generous terms & conditions, but only on condition that you stayed there, & shut up. We don't let the inmates of other asylums out among the populous, who pay for them, & you must be the same.

As long as your pontificating is contained within your own circle, we will keep paying for you. However if you want to come out & mix with the real people, you'll have to start to pay your own way.

When less than one in ten of you have ever had a useful thought, most would find that hard.

“But Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders, of course, never see this 'Indigenous' funding.
More than 55 per cent of the $5 billion goes to the salaries, profits and expenses of the bureaucrats, consultants and contractors who comprise the 'Aboriginal Industry.' The Department of Finance concluded that $3.5 billion Indigenous funding was wasted annually.”

Helen Hughes,

Bureaucracy marches on a stomach that expands to fill the time and the resources assigned to a task (Parkinson’s Law) and if our bureaucrats use only 3.5 billion out of the five billions budgeted by the Government, is not all that bad considering that any other ‘Charity’ can only deliver 6 t0 7 percent of the funds collected.

Rodents, on the other hand, are ever-present where man is thrown intoo misery

Helen Hughes ? Typical “Crap” from a board member of the “Aboriginal Victim Industry” ( AVI ).

Hasbeen ? Brilliant !!

Arthur Bell ( aka bully ! hi ! )

Batchelor is a typical NT aboriginal town. Back in the sixties when it was run by Territory Enterprises to house the workers from the nearby Rum Jungle uranium mine, it was kept neat and tidy by those who lived there. Now it looks like nobody lives there, the streets are untidy and the houses look a mess. Why can't the aboriginal inhabitants look after it like we did? Surely it is not that hard, after all, plenty of them have time on their hands. Don't blamee the whites.

Let's dumb it down to a point where most of us can recognise and point at least some blame at many of us for our own apathy.

Keep at it Helen, I hope you'll have success one day.
