Hitler had his convenient scapegoat in the Jews for whom he blamed for all the economic hardships of ordinary German people. Trump did something similar as he blamed the African American for the poverty issues of redneck whites.

I see different as profits become far more important than people, some who have become, to coin a phrase, useless mouths and need to be gotten rid of. Yahwol?

I am wheelchair bound and currently dependent on strangers for almost everything, from personal hygine to all the housekeeping.

This morning my "care" provider informed me that my care was to be restricted to two hours a week only, for shopping. And no longer available for doctor's/specialist's appointments, housekeeping or personal hygine.

Who can I turn to when the government pulled half my care funding which was already far less than adequate for a man who has a history of, massive hemophargic stroke, inoperable brain cancer, a heart condition, odemia, lttle bladder control, a fractered hip and re-fractered spine, not helped by age related, decreasing bone density.

And am currently wheel chair bound. The only thing still working properly, is my mind and it's with that that I have plenty left to contribute, if I am not prevented by those that "care"?

Q. Mr Morrison, what does being a Christian actually mean and how sick does one need to be to get past an alleged, level two package!?

There is a deep divide between those who claim to care, are tasked with providing that care, and those who are completely dependent on all the latter.

I will vote with alacrity when asked to do so and make these pretenders pay at the polls. And require/extoll all those remaining humans to do likewise!

The heartless, soulless robots merely masquerading as humans or "Christians" can please themselves.

Trump did what? Reduced the risk of bloodshed? Maybe, but he increased it at home by having Americans turn on each other! And only to stay in power long after the people had voted (in record numbers) him out!

Biden only winning because he wasn't Trump!

As for the other stuff? I agree we need tax reform as an unavoidable flat tax of 15% for everyone above a generous, tax free threshold And we need energy and transport reform with an upgraded rail system/rapid rail and energy that could be retailed for as little as 1 cent PKWH.

We also need to return our water rights to the people and out of the hands of price gouging water barons! Some of who would charge for the rainfall and the rainwater you collect in your rainwater tanks? It was proposed!

Who are my care providers, you ask? SBC. Standing for, South Burnett Care. And signing up new clients ASAP even as they suffer quite massive alleged staff lay offs through sick leave and early retirement? At least that was the claim as relayed to me?

People who claim to care and "earn" their profit from alleged age care? Do care, for the bottom line. I could call my aged care.com, but I cannot spend three or four days waiting at one end of unattended phone line?

Where I have to listen to C.R.A.P music and a recording that repeatedly butts in to tell me that my call is important to them and a staff member will, take my call ASAP. It may as well say eff off you useless old effing bludger? Ditto the almost useless Ombudsman?

This is where we have come to and the elderly shunted off as if they were useless appendages that need to be euthanized as the most economical outcome? And reminesent of prewar Nazi Germany

I say, keep the borders closed until this attitude among the young Turks, is a thing of the past along with high unemployment numbers among the young!

I don't know whether its true or not but I recently read something which claimed that 50% or more of the American people are functionally illiterate. It could also be the case here in Australia.

But who or what really controls everyone in the now 24/7 Surveillance State and in which algorithms control much/most/all of the culture-wars shouting matches. A world in which four companies alone have huge influence, namely: Facebook, Google, Apple and Amazon - a book titled The Four was written about them.

Never mind of course the existence of the most powerful humanly created institution created by human beings, namely The Pentagon-Industrial-Entertainment (propaganda) Complex and its world-wide-"culture"-of-death
Even, and perhaps especially, the "catholic" church runs the worlds largest "privately" owned propaganda machines, which manipulates the minds, bodies and emotions of people all over the planet. As far as I know is directed by an opus dei propaganda operative.

And what about mega-huge outfits such as the Larry (the) Fink controlled Black Rock hedge fund, which controls trillions of dollars.

Then of course there is also the American Legislative Exchange Council which has enormous behind-the-scenes influence

This author focussed on Trump? What about daily Antifa and BLM riots? Nothing. That tells me he is another lefty spouting biased nonsense. Stick to your idiot mates Son, You will get in trouble here.
