darn - my computer's playing up again.
Apologies for all the typos.

There is one very obvious solution to the problems
facing Aboriginal communities, and that is:-

1.they should get up off their drunken backsides
2.clean their houses,
3. send their kids to school instead of
letting them swim in the creek all day.

4. when their kids get an education and a good job then they
will be able to work and buy land and a house like the rest
of Australia has to.

They want land,
well! Nobody gives ordinary Australians land. Noone walks up
and says,"by the way, here is this free piece of land in this nice suburb."

Every ordinary Australian has to work their butts off for most of
their lives to pay for land and a house. That's fair and square, everybody has the chance to get an education, a job
and earn what they own. This is true equality and it's there for every
Australian, including the Aboriginals. Nobody gets a free ride.We are all given an equal chance to achieve
if we have the guts to work for it.

(I am not talking about the Aboriginal people who go to Uni and
work and make something of their lives, I am talking about
the ones who choose to remain victims, the ones John Pilger
is talking about.)

As usual Pilger shoots his mouth off
without really understanding or having years of first
hand experience of the subjects he talks about.
