i'm in south australia so i'm dont know for sure but i think i read that the land the greyhound tracks are on in NSW is owned by the NSW govt.

 

i also think i read where a promise was made the land would be used for community projects not sold off to housing.

 

i'm also sure if mr tunbull and mr morrison had assets to sell they would be trying to flog em off right now.

Remember the Gold sell off at the bargain price of around US$330 into a buyers market.

The thing that puzzled me then and still today = to whom did they sell the gold?

 

The paper says the gold was sold via a single broker engaged without a tender.

 

Makes me wonder what shonky deals were done that would outrage the nation.

Targeting the poor, the sick and the elderly is just a deflection from their own actions or lack of leadership.

If the country was managed properly we would have half the unemployment and there wouldnt be a problem supporting those that needed help.

The people at the top are taking far more that a fair share and leaving too little behind.

They are either completly incompident or its a planned way of reducing most back to being peasants that scape by what ever means they can

if we knew the real total of money spent since the 911 attacks on the world trade centers helping america save face by killing who knows how many innocent men women and children in the middle east we'd faint as a nation i'm sure.

 

then add the money being spent on keeping those terrorist boat people locked up in foreign countries.

 

money spent increasing security here in australia against terrorists

 

money spent increasing security of embassys worldwide

 

ect ect ect.

 

all that money if it had instead been spent on our own internal areas such as education, medicine and the poor, unemployed and homeless what a 21st century country we would be.
