morganzola,
I agree that in theory my wish list is changeable under the present system, in reality it isn't. Why else would we have so many dysfunctional policies & nothing is done to rectify them ? I ttotally agree with you that the present system states all the right & moral-technical aspects of a decent democratic society but we ain't are we ? We have multi billion dollar industries just dealing with legally bending or avoiding these rules. Billions that should be going out to practical infrastructure but instead most of that money goes to consultants & other hangers-on bureaucracy. We're spending more on trying to prosecute people than trying to prove them innocent even when it becomes clear they're innocent. We're tolerating this back to front system when we shouldn't. We see the occasional high ranking Public Official getting out of line & we're not permitted to remind them of their wrong-doing a couple of years later.
What we, the working masses must demand is value for our tax dollar. It is criminal how much of our tax dollar is spent on making our society weaker rather than stronger. I really think the tax payer should be allowed to stipulate where some of his tax is going to. You'd be surprised how many organisations would have their uselessness exposed by such a system.

individual/quote..""I really think the tax payer
should be allowed to stipulate where some of his tax is going to.""

yep that would be great
like belly could allocate his taxes
to go to the labratters party polifolio positions
and others can finance the potfolios of the few greenlabbratters....or libelratters taxes to their portfolio positions

i think we need the minesters to select their portfolio's
and then get elected to represent them..[not their ratters parties policy and obligations]..

we have currently..the lawers and faqceless elites deciding all of it
where a penny drops whon the wong penny turns from carbon tax to her new finance mine/sty..[though admittedly it serves the same money marketeering adgenda]

best she be allocated her minestry
from those wanting her..to admin their taxes
whithin a specific portfolio she was SPECIFICLY elected to service

in time scateboarders would have their minester for skateboarding
farmers have their own minster...miners/industry/immigration/cuss-toms...each having their own..mouth peace

maybe we could have the chinese paying their tax to china
being governed [ie SERVED]..by them..or by whoever offers the best deal..

my voters would be ASSURED..
not one penny will go to the carbon/ating pemy wong

or the mine-star for healthy subsidies
to legal pwerscribed..drug death merchants

[noting 1 in 100 hospitalisations or adverse REACTIONS to legal[perscribed]..drugs...

1 in 10..resulting in death

govt isnt working..for those
govt was formed to serve

its time the party loyalty/scam
two party patsie..*treason..was ended..

but no
know
it wont be allowed to happen
the one sure rule...is send em broke

I will leave Indy to you Morgonzola.
I just can not make ground with his thoughts and ideas.
As I go how ever OUG lets talk.
Your views about politics and betrayal, I think you know are not shared by many.
Constant insults about the party system get to me, mate do you see our current hung Parliament.
The results?
If we had 180 individual members how often would they be able to pass a bill.
Groups would form, self interested groups,not unlike the filth within my NSW ALP they drove our boat, onto the rocks,the biggest defeat for us, victory for conservatives, in my states history.
This type of action always ends that way, after the fall of such a group, another wins, after a time it becomes old and acts badly,the the cycle begins again.
Two party or 100, our current system needs trimming not splattering up against a wall.

Belly,
that's the strangest way I've ever had someone saying what I am saying.

However Individual I support the party system.
Not perfect but the best way we have.
My NSW ALP will not repeat that crime against its members/self for a century, if ever.
Within the party system at least some self control can be enforced.
I will not say we can not improve, shorter terms make for better government, in my view.
Less minority rule too is wanted.
Once TAX/ETS NBN and a few other achievements get passed, I would Love double dissolution to restore majority rule.
But get rid of the Senate? so much progress a wonderful win for mainstream Australians.

TAX/ETS NBN. So much Progress ?
Belly,
Not yet.
