@japan_nobunaga Come to Australia for all your worries to be lifted!

I only learnt recently of courage of so many citizens of Crete before and after the Battle of Crete, WWII 1941. Many Allied soldiers owed their lives to these brave people who provided escape routes, shelter and food at the greatest risk to their own safety.

Thank you Anna.🙏

Matilda’s parents have been brave in speaking out about the events of 14 Dec, communicating the human cost of such evil. Matilda was named for our peaceful Australia because her parents thought “it was the most Australian name that could ever exist.”🇦🇺🐝

@LibOrNormal Willy Wonker and the Chocolate Factory - I was an only child who got told he was spoiled all the time - all those spoiled only children seemingly getting killed was so traumatic. Never saw the end.

@TheJoeySwoll He is likely to wake up in 20 years, look at his savings and wonder where all the money went!

Giving everyone a universal basic income will not reveal most people’s inner Mozarts or Emily Brontës.

At bottom, this is about two competing views of human nature.

One view holds that once basic material needs are met, people will use their free time to seek meaning and fulfillment. Unshackled from the burden of work, they will thrive. This is partly true. A small share of people would create, build, and explore.

But for most, that is not what happens. When people are out of work, they do not spend their days painting or sculpting or learning another language. They scroll, they watch television, they play video games.

Many advocates of UBI assume that people are simply waiting for the right conditions. Remove financial pressure, and they will pursue their creative passions. That may be true for a few. It is not true for most.

Another view holds that meaning comes from the act of working. Earning your way, supporting yourself, and taking care of others provide structure and fulfillment. Effort, struggle, and self-reliance are not barriers to a meaningful life. They are part of what makes it possible. A society that removes the need to work risks removing one of the main sources of meaning in life.

@hamhammer27 Should drop the ticketing system altogether and just add a levy on council rates for public transport - with inner city residents of course being charged more because they have more PT.

@MmarianneJoseph If everyone, no matter what their religious beliefs, read the book of Proverbs and lived by it the world would be such a better place!

@hamhammer27 What you save on the Metro Tunnel you can lose by an extra walk to your destination - still a win the step count goes up!
