It certainly is stranger than fiction, & you wouldn't believe it, if we didn't see it nightly on the news. Yep that's right, Labor's carbon tax policy I'm talking about.

Over night we hear that yet another major trading bank has closed it's carbon credits trading section. Any little carbon trading that is required will be covered part time by other staff. That is the fourth major bank, along with many bit players to get out of the failed market.

Yes, the bureaucrats of the EU & the traders are trying desperately to get a new, more expensive scheme off the ground, but the whole scam is like a dead weight. Sorry fellers, you've lost your rich pickings off the backs of pensioners. Try getting a real job.

There is a rumor that paper companies are buying up carbon credits to make toilet paper. It is the cheapest paper in Europe.

Meanwhile back at trades hall, Labor are still wanting to get Oz in to the EU trading scheme. They just refuse to see the writing on the wall, or even the burning bush. They would prefer to fund the EU & it's failing scam, rather than admit they got it wrong.

How must Labor supporters feel, when even dropkicks like Carr & KRudd are running as hard as their little legs can carry them to get away from the catastrophe.

Another Labor failure, we can now add the NDIS scheme which is reportedly 30% over expected costs.

Weren't both of them Juliars?

Hmmm .. I am actually a bit more concerned about "my" silly Greenies who just don't seem to be able to get their heads around the idea that the "carbon tax" was always going to be a poison chalice and once they went from the idea of an open, transparent and inclusive public debate to determine the best way forward to a sleazy back room deal with the ALP it perhaps should be no surprise that what came out of it was an abomination.

It's not that the majority of Australians do not want to address climate change but rather, that the base has already been over revved and red lined and they are simply not prepared to take any more.

I must say that I have a lot of sympathy with that particular view, though I would add, it is not how much you are paid only, but rather what you get for it as an overall package. You see, Ozzies say get 5 times more in dollars say than in some other places, but you really don't get much more in real terms. Go figure ..

Likewise with Asylum Seekers. It is not that the majority wish to see ghouls like Morrison abusing people and kids, but rather that they know all too well that if some people are to get more, ie the Asylum Seekers, then other people must get less, which invariably is those who can least afford it.

..

If a deal hasn't already been done, I suspect that the ALP under Shorten will shack up with the Liberals to roll out some nuclear generated electricity solutions in the medium to long term.

In the mean time, no doubt but subtle means, they will do everything they can to have the Greens relegated to a minority niche at best.

The whole political spectrum has lost the plot world wide, Hasbeen. The crooks have taken over every government from Timbuktu to Upper kummbukkta West. It's a world wide push to destroy everything in order to usher in a new system. Just look at what the poor yanks are facing with that Obozo of a president they've got.

CMS Official: We Still Haven't Built '30 to 40 Percent' of Obamacare's Web Apparatus, Including Payment Systems

He's talking about a carbon tax also. Probably to buy another copy of front page to finish off his website.

Then the poor Europeans with their Euro Communist Union with their bail ins and theft of the peons savings amongst other vile things. Something that loony tunes Krudd signed us up to as well.

And then we have banks writing themselves i.o.u's to cover their own debts, self securitising themselves and it's all kosher with the .govs and their crony banking mates. Aus being one of the bigger players.

Everything is fake and the whole world has gone completely mad, it's all upside down.

It's all linked buddy, so keep some powder dry and handy and prepare accordingly. The Zombie Apocalypse is almost here!

Labour and Greens showed themselves to be economic vandals. There is enough hatred for Western values among them not to give a stuff. They mismanaged and lied about carbon tax, mining tax, NBN, school halls and just about every other thing they put their hands to. They now have the hide to claim some sort of legacy with blowing a huge deficit and leaving a great debt. But of course their in Gonski. What heroes to make grand promises they can never deliver.Instead of a national apology and hoding their heads in shame they speak of legacy. Oh that's right they said 'sorry ' despite the fact that nothing has changed.

So you guys reckon that a tax on pollution is bad which after all is what a carbon tax does. We are entering a pretty nasty economic situation were we will either have to increase taxes, reduce benefits or borrow large amounts of money. The solution being proposed is typical, stuff the long term lets borrow all the cash we can and let future generations pay the bill. Such an attitude is morally reprehensible and those promoting it should exposed be for the nonsense that they are pedalling.
