RM,

It does make one wonder why a human would resist the "system".

After all, they are drafted in pretty early these days. You'd think years of sitting in neat rows, reacting to bells and whistles and gaining their kudos from stickers, ticks and award certificates, one would imagine they'd be well and truly indoctrinated by the time they're ready to leave school.

We'll just have to try harder.

Yuyutsu,
or should I call you Ostrich, if your idea of preventing a very serious situation get a lot worse is to run away from it than you have either no idea whatsoever or you're still a juvenile.

Mr PLANET3
I really have no idea what planet you may live on but the idea that people can do exactly what they want to here in our so called democracy is the reason why we are where we are at this point in time.
My statement was and is "IF" you can work then you must work to support yourself. Do you really think it fair that I should support someone who refuses to support themselves.
In a true democratic society the strong survive and grow and if they have anything they WANT to give to others then they may do so. The weak fall by the wayside. Even our indigenous cohabitants practiced this form of social economy.Leaving the weak behind to die when they moved on. Their society could not afford to feed them and carry them from place to place.
When those 'others' attempt to take what they want either through social security or force they should be first condemned and second locked up like the predators they are. Keep locking them up until they learn to conform. All social security money should be rationed out for what it is intended, accommodation, sustenance and education not grog, gambling and drugs.

Dear Rawmustard.

While the feed-back is of great value (over the last six years) with the pinnacles of all understandings,the callings for greater achievements in political science and the fundamentals of a complex society, also calls for change even in the most smallest parts. However, those of us that dictate from our ivory towers with the best intensions of course, can miss the true nature that centralizes and questions how we govern all as a fair state of fairness. QLD

Dear chrisgaff1000

You have indeed a very strong view that’s respected, and please forgive me for stirring the pot:)

And last but never the least Poirot….all you get is a smile:) but how to eradicate with a prudent deterrent ……I,ll just sit this one out:)

Dear Individual,

<<if your idea of preventing a very serious situation get a lot worse is to run away from it than you have either no idea whatsoever or you're still a juvenile.>>

I have no idea since you never informed me of your situation
(but thanks anyway for the compliment, nobody called me "juvenile" in perhaps 40 years, maybe I'll even be able to make somersaults again).

All I know so far about your situation is what you wrote, that is, that the government forces you to employ people which you do not like against your will. I don't know the nature of your business, but on that information alone I would consider it a sufficient reason to move out and let the government deal with the mess they created.

The whole philosophy behind the old Vagrancy Act was that if you don't work for a living then you must steal and therefore need to be locked up to protect society. Today we avoid the responsibility of protecting society from predators (no quite really) by handing out social security
