Activist: "Your cows are putting carbon into the atmosphere."
Farmer: "Where did they get it?"
Activist: "What?"
Farmer: "The carbon. Where did the cow get it before it put it anywhere."
Activist: "From... eating?"
Farmer: "From eating grass. And where did the grass get it."
Activist: "The soil?"
Farmer: "The air. The grass pulled it out of the air last spring. The cow ate the grass. The cow breathed some of it back out. It went back into the air it came from."
Activist: "But it's still going into the atmosphere."
Farmer: "It's going back. There's a difference between a thing going somewhere and a thing going back. You've described a circle and you're frightened of it."
Activist: "Then just don't have the cow."
Farmer: "The grass still dies in autumn. It rots where it falls. The carbon goes back into the air either way, just without anyone getting fed in the middle."
Activist: "It's not that simple."
Farmer: "It's grass, cow, breath, grass. Or it's grass, rot, air, grass. Same circle, fewer dinners. If that's complicated for you I'd stay away from the water cycle. That one's got clouds in it."
It's pretty clear that everyone standing with this 'Invasion Day' garbage are just your old fashioned Marxist racists.
They hate what they lazily call 'white people'.
They hate Western Civilisation.
They want all the money and all the privileges of our nation, but refuse to acknowledge the people who built it for them.
Our ancestors made extraordinary sacrifices so we could stand here today - and all these horrible people want to do is come in, tear it down, enslave us, and sit around living off our labour.
Intergenerational theft, what garbage.
We worked our proverbials off and saved for our retirement, did not go to Bali, no tattoos, only 3 bed home with no pool and were lucky to survive and enjoy at least some of the benefits and still don't draw a pension.
Theft? WHAT RUBBISH.
Have you ever stopped to look at just how extensively Australians are taxed?
These guys absolutely nail it.
More than 3 of the 5 days you work (if you work) is money that goes straight to the taxman.
It’s time we demanded TAX IS SLASHED and govt trims
