Hehe, I love it. Hold a demonstration and then figure out
what you are demonstrating about :)

Of course the Australian demonstrators will have to figure
out their own reasons to complain, because no taxpayer funds
bailed out any bank. The Govt landed up earning a couple of
billion or so from the whole bank guarantee thinggy.

I'll have to disagree with you about doctors, TRTL. If you
want to see a closed shop union, try the surgeons. Medicine is
a huge business in the US, they spend twice what we do, of GDP.
No wonder the poor can't afford healthcare.

You can choose not to deal with a hedge fund, an investment bank
etc, but you can't choose not to pay a surgeon.

gabby note quote..""You can choose

etc,""

we dont chose
we get to pay COMPULSORY super 'contribution'
for them to gamble..with hedgefunds/investment babnkers AS THEY CHOSE

we got no choice
our COMPULSORY super is stolen sdirect from our wages

""but you can't choose not to pay a surgeon.""

sure you can mate
we got COMPULSORY MEDICAL LEVIES
so we can wait two to thre years to get a new hip joint
cause the old one failed...
]
[you just have to get in line
get onto a list..and wait..
with all the other cripple wages slaves

paying income tax on wages...lol

wage aint income its wage
if we had wage tax then they could steal 'income tax'
but firast they need to redefine wage to mean income

[INCOME IS MONEY BEGOTTEN BY not value adding
ie a consumable markup or fine or rent is income
they are to be taxed..NOT WAGES

we cant be forced into a unlateral con-tract
like third party compulsory insurance

ahhhh heck
why bother trying to teach the clever guy like you
[your investments are income][not my wage]

anyhow ammonium nitrate good quotes

While the thread has stalled those like myself who find some good in these actions will have interesting times ahead.
The movement will grow.
BUT will face problems violence some paid for by those being protested about.
Will continue and may kill it.
Lies same sponsor, but helped along by blind silliness that its the left only involved.
Mad acts, some by mad protesters most by just mad.
Such a thing becomes in festered with every lunatic group trying to own it.
But I have hope, and trust in the young, they lead every change and we never needed change more.

Just want to make my view about sabotaging the movement clear.
Show men trained us.
As a kid in a little place called Bargo,it was little then.
The towns best horse rider,for his age,about 12.
Went in to the Circus ring, excepting a challenge.
Ride around the ring on a killer horse.
Just in case,a rope went around his waste.
And he was promised if he rode it he would get the then huge sum of one pound.
He came off, was dangled in mid air on that rope.
We could not believe it!
A clown grabbed his legs and his pants came down.
A dreadful shame we thought.
3 weeks after he finally told us, he got the cash ,for failing.
Some seeming from within the movement will too.
