James Packer isn't the smartest book on the shelf...

 

I am wondering WHY Abbott thought it appropriate to take Packer (and a whole lot of other self interested business people) on official government business overseas? The calibre of the entourage just doesn't sit right with me.

The entourage is exactly right for this government, abbott took representatives of those who the LNP govern for.

Their campaign coffers are going to be full to overflowing at the next election.

Well good for little Jamie Packer. 

 

Jamie barely scraped through high school.

 

He has not one single qualification to his name, not even from a TAFE. 

 

I suppose the fact that he was born wealthy and fat makes him wise? Learned? Educated?

where do you think you would all be working.

 

tall poppy syndrome?

mmm what are they "doing" exactly. Living off the labour of others, thats all. I keep my respect and admiration for those that actually made and make everything we use and have, not the parasites that just own it all. How many pits has rineart actually worked in? none. What does packer actually produce? nothing.

 

So it's lovely that some choose to admire and respect the idle rich, I admire and respect the working class. The idle rich can produce nothing without us, they aren't necessary.

The age old commo class wars is alive and well on here. The offensive comment and disgusting pictures is not debate but baiting.

 

Lets get rid of the wealth makers and go back to living in the hovels and huts of the stone age. The hatreds uttered on here?  pfftt. reflects on them nobody else.

If you want to talk about the idol rich you need to look a little closer to your own the biggest leaches I have met are union bosses guys who have truly got rich off of the worker without any risk or investment
