Poor Hasbeen. Oh, poor Hasbeen. You were never able to get into university to learn anything. But don't let it get you down there are billions of people just like you who don't know anything as well.

And one day, when the world can no longer support overpopulation, one of those billions might be the very cannibal who bites you on the bum! Oh poor Hasbeen ......poor Hasbeen.

The thread has turned in to a good laugh!
People saying silly things about others, who basically share their view.
Onthebeach! you did it did,nt you?
Let the dog off, when it returns let it post here for you, instant improvement/understanding.
I contend any one thinking my views will ever influence the Liberal Party, in the choice of leaders, needs help.
An opinion, some thing we all have, can not be spoken in the hearing of just a few, who jump on it to? put their opinion!
And no! SHOUTED NO! the world has not said global warming is not true.
Soon even the worlds worst emitter China, will act, not enough but watch this space.
This thread asks will climate change impact on the election.
Well for some yes- for sure.
But can events such as Briton's long cold winter extra tropical cyclones , our record of floods in the past year or years, maybe another one, before winter, impact.
I think minds are closed to the real chance it will, to the chance Turnbull could do what Hawk did to another leader, take a certain victory for him self, as a result of unrest with Abbott,s plan.
Can I ask the non believers to give their thoughts, understanding even of how Abbott intending to cut by the same figure works with their view its a fraud?
If you think he will not look for that in office is he lieing to us now?

very bad incompetent Government has left any number of issues that the voters hate. The massive debt, the drowning of the boat people, the changing of laws that worked, climate change fantasy, mining tax debacle, the communist plot to shut up the press. Emily's listers and emasculated males (such as independants) have proved a total diaster. The lie about the carbon tax by a power hungry PM who stabbed her leader in the back after talling him to drop it is just one of a litany of poor decisions. The PM's poor judgement over the last 30 years rolls on. r we down to 5 months yet?

Lexi,

"Labor's carbon pricing scheme is arguable NOT a tax at all. "

Rubbish! Perhaps the use of English eludes you?

A tax is defined as a non voluntary payment to the state. What we have now is a pure and simple tax on carbon emissions. What is intended after 2015 is a mixture between a carbon tax and an ETS. A pure ETS would have emission caps traded between businesses alone with no revenue going to the state.

Unemployment is creeping up slowly, largely due to the impact of the carbon tax on small businesses which receive almost zero compensation.

Dear Shadow Minister,

Let me again set the record straight.

No. it is not a tax on households or small business.
Australia's biggest polluters will be required to
pay for their pollution under the carbon pricing
mechanism.

As for the English language. It's been part of my
life every since I was born. My parents spoke eight
languages, English was one of them. My mother taught
English. And my father taught Latin. I majored in
English at Uni.

However, some people do find English somewhat confusing.
I'll grant you that. Here's a few quotes"

"If the English language made any sense, a catastrophe
would be an apostrophe with fur."

And:

"Why do we have noses that run and feet that smell?"

I'm sure others on this Forum can think of many more.

B Sc Mr O, what are you? Obviously nothing with any math, or you wouldn't be so easily conned, or quite so arrogant.

Of course I was lucky enough to get into an industry with real chemists & engineers, doing real work, & really start to learn.

Obviously you have not been as lucky.
