@MikeCarlton01 The fact that you/we call out this garbage makes them feel relevant. As Lachlan said in court when being sued over the voting machines issue, they are an entertainment co. not news organisation. Says it all.
@Ryandally08@DrDunnyKruger If you can do it without tax handouts, all for it. Home owners shouldn't compete with tax handouts to investors. Go build new homes if you're so successful and I'll support your cause.
@bo_brand@MikeCarlton01@IWasBornIn1975 Aren't police the highest union workforce, nurses, teachers, firefighters, commies all of them, you crack me up mate😂😂😂😂
This is good 💯
Pope Francis wrote this in the Hospital.
“The walls of hospitals have heard more honest prayers than churches...
They have witnessed far more sincere kisses than those in airports...
It is in hospitals that you see a homophobe being saved by a gay doctor.
A privileged doctor saving the life of a beggar...
In intensive care, you see a Jew taking care of a racist...
A police officer and a prisoner in the same room receiving the same care...
A wealthy patient waiting for a liver transplant, ready to receive the organ from a poor donor...
It is in these moments, when the hospital touches the wounds of people, that different worlds intersect according to a divine design. And in this communion of destinies, we realize that alone, we are nothing.
The absolute truth of people, most of the time, only reveals itself in moments of pain or in the real threat of an irreversible loss.
A hospital is a place where human beings remove their masks and show themselves as they truly are, in their purest essence.
This life will pass quickly, so do not waste it fighting with people.
Do not criticize your body too much.
Do not complain excessively.
Do not lose sleep over bills.
Make sure to hug your loved ones.
Do not worry too much about keeping the house spotless.
Material goods must be earned by each person—do not dedicate yourself to accumulating an inheritance.
You are waiting for too much: Christmas, Friday, next year, when you have money, when love arrives, when everything is perfect...
Listen, perfection does not exist.
A human being cannot attain it because we are simply not made to be fulfilled here.
Here, we are given an opportunity to learn.
So, make the most of this trial of life—and do it now.
Respect yourself, respect others. Walk your own path, and let go of the path others have chosen for you.
Respect: do not comment, do not judge, do not interfere.
Love more, forgive more, embrace more, live more intensely!
And leave the rest in the hands of the Creator.”
—Pope Francis

"We can either collect more tax from the big businesses that can afford to pay it, or we can say, Sorry, Marge, you've had it too good." #qanda
@jeff_kennett How funny, let's go back to gas lights 1890s style and charging phones on gas appliances. A dinosaur does as a dinosaur knows right.
What is the cost to all of us to tackle climate change when governments pass the problem to future generations mate.
@SenatorCash Wasn't your party in favour of removing negative gearing and then blinked.
If the circumstances change so should polices, it's what adult politicians do. Make the right decisions for the current environment. Promises need to be contextualised.
Get it!
@TheAusInstitute@PressClubAust @RDNS_TAI Wow, we put the cart before the horse. How can we say we are the lucky country, our future is taxed so businesses can enjoy mega profits, most of which goes offshore.

@KatyKray73 So you're suggesting the Australian parliament unanimously vote for us to go war.
No prime minister should decide on their own, no one. Discuss....
@tonytardio Still struggling after loosing in a landslide after landslide and landslide 😂😂😂
Supporting a magazine that's never made a profit by a company that pays no tax, American owned propoganda, keep punching Muppet.
@JohnRHewson Interesting to see the people complaining about the cost of living using it as a wedge/weapon are now silent when policy changes are made to help address it. More needs to be done, but it's a start.
@normboy562@Linda23Bees@AlboMP@JEChalmers Fully agree Labor were wedged 6 years ago and now are wedging them back. If libs support the cuts, the can't complain about the promise. If they don't support it, they stand for higher taxes.
Well played.
