Privatizing assets- especially water- is not 'left wing' you moron.
And it worked so well in the past ten years hasn't it?

"DENIAL IS NOT A RIVER IN EGYPT" perhaps we should have this tattooed on the forehead of every closet communist.

There has never been any shift to the right in Australian politics over the last half century or so. Moderate Centrists like myself, KenH, Hasbeen & runner have been recoiling in horror from the radical, extremes of both the Loony Left & the Raving Right.

The merger of Bob Katter's Australian party with the Queensland party is just the beginning, almost all of Australia's other minor parties will soon follow suit the FF, APP, AF, DLP, CD, ASP, SP, F & LP, LDP, AD, etc.

The Closet communists will lose EVERY seat.

With a preference swap between Bob Katter & LNP, the combined ANTI communist vote will be somwhere between 70% & 80%, with a combined RED/green, getup, GAYLP/alp, Socialist Alliance vote from 15% to 30% at best.

That article & some of the closet communist comments are more delusional than anything i have ever seen since i began following politics in the mid 1970's.

All loony left politics is a derivation of totalitarian communism/socialism, the only difference is which label Stalin applies to the turd, how Hitler intends to distribute it, how much "colateral damage" Mao intends to inflict & whether Pol Pot intends a quick, merciful execution or whether the "dear leader" intends to do it Australian/Fabian style, slowly over decades.

pelican, i know you think you mean well, but feMANazism was invented by closet communists as part ot their PC, Thought Police plan to destroy our society. Bob Katter is THE poster boy for moderate, centrist, politics, i knew Don Chip personally & you would be amazed at how much policy they share.

If Don Chip were alive today he would be declaring himself to be a "reformed" EX, social liberal & a reborn social conservative, he always was an economic conservative who did not believe in the "dream" of level playing fields, like myself & jesus he would not wish to BASH poofters &/or GLBT people but would DIS approve of perversion being promoted as normal.

KH, actually you might be surprised if you thought about it some more, privatising assetts like water & radical, extreme, raving right, policies like globalised, "free trade", leads to Coca Cola Communism in which an ever shrinking minority of multinational corporations own &/or control everything "of value" that is worth owning/controlling, in other words a tiny minority of oligarchs on the board of those corporations runs everything, just like the senior levels of "the kremlin" ran the USSR.

Think about it, what REAL difference is there to the average pleb on the street between Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Burma or the Coles/Woolworths duopoly.

We vote ocasionally & everything has been changing for the worse for half a century? Especially since the SWP/greens morphed along.

The only REAL difference is how far down the toilet bowl we are & how fast the water/weasel words are spinning.

Bruce Haigh is right about both the major parties being on the same side of the fence.That side is the corporate dominanace of our country.

The left right paradigm is just a distraction for the masses while the really big players pillage and plunder our resources,energy and labour.The boat people is another distraction.More people stay here illegaly with a passport and they arrive on a plane.

Bob Brown wants "Global Goverance" 10% of our CO2 taxes will go to the UN for their "New World Order".Did we vote for that? Adolph Hitler also used environmentalism to justify his actions.

The US Federal Resreve a private group of European banks, since 1913 have owned the US $ and created all the money from nothing to equal increases in inflation and growth.They have the US Congress and nearly all presidents in their back pocket.The USA is the prime funder of the UN.So this private group of banks control the UN,IMF,World Bank,Bank of International Settlements and all the economies of Europe.They push for wars of imperialism since they can finance both sides and make money by controlling more energy and resources.

Has our stupid public awoken from their Hollywood trace? Do they dare smell the reality of Global oppression that will see the total enslavement of most humanity on this planet?

*Think about it, what REAL difference is there to the average pleb on the street between Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Burma or the Coles/Woolworths duopoly.*

There is a huge difference Formersnag and if you don't understand
it, then you need to educate yourself a bit better.

You choose to go to Woolies/Coles, because you get a good deal,
or you'd be off the the IGA store, the Aldi store, the Costco store
or the butcher, baker and all the rest.

Hundreds of thousands of mums and dads own shares in both Coles
and Woolies. Virtually all Australians who have a super fund
investment own shares in them too, aware of it or not.

You can even buy a few shares via the internet in either, go to the
AGM and tell the management what you think.

In Saudi, Burma or North Korea, they simply shoot you if they don't
like you.

Formersnag, you need to post a bit more substance and a bit less
poorly thought through rhetoric.

You sound more like the tea party fanatics, all the time.

There you go Arjay, just to clear up one of your conspiracy theories.

But I know, you need your daily fix of this stuff, rather then
do a little research.

Fact is all US savings banks, as distinct from investment banks,
are compelled to own a share in the Fed. Profits from the Fed go
to the US treasury. But keep kidding yourself.
