Well killed the thread it was my fault.
I should not have responded to the juvenile kree.
Or done it better.
After all a Monkey without a Banana for 7 weeks must be torture.

Quote from Houellebecq ; “Where are the handouts to city folk who decide to over capitalise and plan only for the peak times and ignore the existence of business risks like draught and floods and fail to adequately protect themselves, diversify or change industries.

It’s called the regulated labour market houellebecq, that’s the handout subsidy that is built into the cost of everything sold in australia, except for agriculture produce. let’s get rid of the labour market subsidy , it’s called free trade, so should be no trouble for free trade believers..

That’s should bring down production costs for farmers a lot, bring it on.

Dunart welcome.
Our Houlie is a quandary, likes to prod us all, often trys humor.
I can not bring myself to believe he actually thinks like that.
If you get an answer it will not be until Tuesday ,he informs us he only posts here while at work, to break the monotony.
Seems some one is supporting his leisure

sounds normal for a urban person on a labour market subsidy, wants the regulated income for less work.
bet the world market would not support that. (one of the reasons they are cheaper)
I say, if the world market is good enough for any section of the Australian economy, then it has to be for all. The principal of “fair go and fair trade”

Hello dunart I like your idea

Get government out of people’s pockets and leave them to live on the consequences of their own effort

I agree we have too much money-go-rounding with middle class and corporate welfare

Cut it all out

Let the market prevail and leave government to simply regulate against corruption, like anti-monopoly actions etc.

All that government do is tax the industrious to subsidise the indolent –

and socialist governments are worst of all, wanting to tax the air we breath (or at least some of its constituent compounds), without proper economic regard for the consequences of their meddling, based on a discredited theory founded in lies and scare campaigns (Global Warming)

Like dearest Margaret Thatcher said a few years back

"The bigger the slice taken by government, the less cake is left for everyone."

Better we leave money in the pockets of those who earned it and let them decide how they should spend it… and it would save a lot of taxes presently needed for bureaucratic meddler paypackets – like the wasted millions being spent on the mob run by Garnau

Dear old Margarete, have the fondest memory's of her.
The day her party dumped her she was at her best that day.
we need a closer look my new poster here , a very real fear exists about importing a diseases that very well could kill our crop forever.
Australia stands very well for its distances away from other country.
In past days we did not get some very bad plant illnesses.
Any [only a miracle stops us due to travelers smuggling fruit and plants, then being flogged with a wet feather] infestation threaten our food chain.
It may well be true farmers may be using this , but lets not drop our boarder protection if doubt exists.
