Hi Banjo,

Perhaps a rule should be: if money has been poured into a 'brilliant' initiative and there is absolutely nothing to show for it, STOP.

It may mean sacking a hell of a lot of social workers, welfare workers, community workers, engagement officers, inclusion officers, liaison officers, home-makers, well-being officers, etc., etc. but the bottom line surely should be: if no tangible results, close it.

After all, we're talking about many billions each year.

Jay has put up this article on another thread - absolutely mind-blowing:

Dear Joe (Loudmouth),

The following link may be of interest:

Yep ! The degree bearing do-gooder legacy. I hope they're very proud of the irreparable damage they have caused since that Goaf turned the steering wheel to the left.

Loudmouth said it all, and I agree.
Just take the time to think.
Not to see what is, and blame one side.
But ask your self should we be proud or not of our failure to change in the last 200 years.
Noel Person calls for and end to sit down money, and some do not see doing that brings about true improvement.
Would we ever let a whole white suburb live in this way.
We would in fact not.
Accountability education and harsh love are needed here.

We have posted thousands of words in dozens of threads about this subject.
And I would love to see us do it again here.
I feel some fail to understand just what Loudmouth meant.
And what I do too.

We could for days talk of the dreadful things said and done,by Aboriginals to us.
Then the same length of time on the other side telling of what we did to them.
Both debates would contain truth and lies, right and wrong.
If I was sent here say from the UN to investigate why folk live like this, I may well think it is forced on them,always, that would be untrue.
Some far wiser folk than me post here, like to hear from them, like to see too views about why the money is wasted or stolen almost always.
What we think, on both sides, is not changing anything.
CEDP did, it gave jobs, community based jobs.
Nothing helps on the climb out of povity more than a job, not a shadow of one.
One that assures work outcomes.
Any thoughts.

First let me say to all you whinging buggers…get stuffed…no offense.

Every cent spent on our first Aussies stays in the country. It goes to retailers and tradesmen, local people.

Piss it up against the wall or not, it does more for us than it does for them sadly. Whinge about the money we send away to alien bureaucrats for the carbon tax rubbish, or for Muslim schools in Indonesia, or, or , or.

Belly>> Some far wiser folk than me post here<<

Thanks china. Given you want my view on why the aboriginals are not like us and just can't get it together in our society, can't be focussed on possessions like us....it’s in the genes. A handful of generations from the stone age and you people expect Wall Street….leave them alone.
