WTF.....happened to Australian Spirit?....

What do you think....are we roooooned?  Does anyone have the same sense of 'existential dread', that I'm feeling lately for the future of Australia?........?  Lib Labor..doesn't matter, they BOTH don't get it I reckon.

What do you think?

"there is an overwhelming rudeness and arrogance that pervades everything"

That seems to be it

[cueperkins]

BTW Cue, good post back there I'm right with you on that too

Not sure which one Deb...I'm feeling thoroughly militant in all directions these days...as you can tell..I'm so over the BS...We need to focus on AUSTRALIA'S BEST INTERESTS.  Not that today's pollies will ever get that.

We're going to have another hung parliament because that's the only way to keep the barstools honest....Absolute power corrupts absolutely and none of us should trust either side enough to give them complete power......neither have earned it...... it positively scares me that Stony could win power, even on a shoe strong.....Strange days indeed.

Dreamin as usual...bring it on sunshine.

"there is an overwhelming rudeness and arrogance that pervades everything"

That's it...!!!  Our nation is now divided and every social forum is similarly divided according to Red and Blue divisiveness.....We're AUSSSIES...Lest we forget.

I think the gap between the classes is getting bigger, the haves and have nots.

There has been an ongoing campaign by the government for some time blaming the unemployed, the disabled and the elderly for being a burden and the cause of increased taxes and reduced services and middle class has taken every thing they have been told and believed it and become increasingly less tolerant.

People are finding it harder to make ends meet and cant work out why, and they get angry  

[cueperkins]

BTW, that last comment was directed at the usual antagonist.....not you deb

BTW Pod..intel tells a different story but whatever.

As in any heated debate the red corner and the blue corner are poles apart in their beliefs.

There is no middle ground just, an ever widening chasm between the red corner and the blue corned and never the twain shall meet. That goes for politics and this and other foura as well.

What I have observed is a sea of closed minds out of sheer perversity.

It's always like this, cue. It has bad days at work then comes here ;\

[debra9275]

all good Cue, I got the gist of it  😉

who are you to judge?

[cueperkins]

Poddy, you're so negative I wanna scream....can't you aspire to anything other than rooooon?

Crikey

BTW Karen I know...he's got another forum he can go and badger people on......I wish that person would just go away and give us a place to just have a blinking laugh for Gawd sake...!!!???
