"We live in an era of not just cynicism about the political class but, for many, of genuine hatred – of politicians who insist on solving problems we don’t have, who interfere in our lives, who tax us to the max only to squander our money on idiot schemes, who speak in talking points and gobbledegook, who talk about and, alas, act upon, issues that concern no one, who sell off our assets to foreign powers, who are tethered to ideologies when what we need is “club sensible” policies, and, above all , who don’t do what they say they will." (Paul Collits, Quadrant Online, 12/12/19).

Economics writer, Alan Moran, describes as FOLLY the Morrison government's economic stimulus - handouts to pensioners $4.8 billion; the Reserve Bank's $7 billion foray into the stock market.

The "leadership" some people are demanding would be better if it involved dismantling REGULATIONS on business

Wise and relevant words:

"The point that TAFKAS would however like to emphasise that, with the phenomenal growth in the size and scope of the Commonwealth government, the mental bandwidth and resources of government are diluted. Rather than focusing all energies and efforts on doing the things that government should be doing (like managing national health crises), the government spends too much time focusing on things it shouldn’t be doing (like allocating grants for change rooms and community pools). And when crises occur, resources, political capital and institutional credibility is severely diminished.

We cannot continue with the Commonwealth Government meddling in every nook and cranny of Australian life and regulating every human movement.

Communities and societies cannot build and maintain their resilience if every time there is an issue, a pseudo-benevolent authority in a distant swampland (somewhere between Sydney and Melbourne) jumps in, says there – there, throws other people’s money around and promises to fix everything, something that it generally can’t do."

the one upside to the Coronavirus is that foolish Governments might stop wasting billions on education that just dumbs people down, wasting billions on renewables that go to charlatons, wasting ? on the baby killing industry and other unnecessary public funded life style choices. With the economy on its knees we might have someone with the courage to stare down the foolish Green policies that spend money to stop mines, dams, infrastructure and indusrty that actually produces something. We might grow at least half a brain and mine more coal, mine uranium and any other mineral we have in demand. We need to grow more food and lock up vegan vandals and extremist like antifa and extinction rebellion. We need to rid corporate boards of virtue signalling fools who are more interested in promoting gay lifestyle than providing services and banking executives who virtue signal at every opportunity while doing over the average person. Ah! that feels better!

Hot on the heels of the mismanagement of the bushfire cries by the ScumO' government, we now have mismanagement by the same mob of the coronavirus pandemic. When the government needs to be proactive, and ahead of the curve, this mob are slow to react. Conflicting advice, and lack of preparedness is causing general panic in the community. If the public were properly informed then much of the panic would not eventuate

Hot on the heels of demonising Morrison for State responsibilities we see the same Morrision Derangement Syndrome with the Coronavirus. Yep people low enough to dance on the graves of others while picking cheap political points. Yep we certainly have a generation of regressive virtue signallers who stoop to any level in order to hide their own depravity and failed ideology. Any tweets from you Paul about Dutton or were they from the low lifes you seem to support on the abc and elsewhere.
