praxidice,
Give us an example of a form of government that is better than we have.

Perhaps you prefer a socialist dictator rather than representative Government. It costs less. Tell us!

Switzerland, at least they have Citizen Initiated Referenda

praxidice,
the swiss think !

praxidice,
How much would it cost if installed in Australia? Who would admininister it in Australia? Would all citizens have to vote on the proposals?

Josephus,
Why should id cost any more than what we have now ? I think it would actually cost us less from the start. The seemingly insurmountable problem is australian mentality.
I would have thought the problems of the rest of the world would be sufficient for Australians to have their eyes & minds opened, Alas!

Sadly you are 100% correct, anything that relies on the stupid sheeple is a hard road. Look for example at the elegantly simple boat-people solution belong Big Clive. Its been tried & proven for yonks elsewhere, unlike the moronic RAbbott nonsense but still the local sheeple pick holes in it. The Citizen Initiated Referenda idea is more of the same, its been working fine in Switzerland since forever & even the half-cut septic tanks have implemented in in a few states, but when Senator Madigan puts a bill on the table, all the sheeple can think of is chucking rocks at him.

Not to worry, I'm not about to lose any sleep over the fate of the sheeple as I have other fish to fry. My group is well on the way to getting the upper hand on local authorities & we plan to start sinking the boot into state gubmunts once we have the locals taking notice. Dunno why Australian sheeple are so slack, maybe we've adopted the pommy whinge, probably also their lunatic class system whereby the hoi-polloi believe in 'respecting their betters'. As if f**kwits like the red-headed witch & the RAbbott are 'better' than anything except maybe a slime mould. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Was it you who made the point about 'divide & conquer' originally ?? Interestingly just the mention of that draws a very interesting reaction from most bloodsucking parasites, its like 'how on earth did you figure out what we are doing ??'
