Fighting Fake News with REAL,19/2/20; Australia's Economy has no place for the Common Good; Elitist Sound Bytes dominate our News;

New technologies are a major source of disruptive, but usually beneficial, change. Another source of disruptive change is the realisation that certain activities are bad for our health (smoking, for instance) or for the natural environment (excessive irrigation and land clearing, burning fossil fuels) and must be curtailed.
Adversely affected interest groups will always tempt governments to try to resist such change – at the ultimate expense of the rest of us. The right answer usually is for change to go ahead, but for governments to help the adversely affected adjust. Just what we haven’t been doing.

Our economy doesn't work for the common good



Right-wing media gleeful at firefighter's support of Pauline Hanson
 
Though it will be fun to see the “how disrespectful is that firefighter?” crowd at Sky After Dark and Sunrise dealing with a man who they now find is as much a fan of Pauline as they are. 
We did we saw Andrew Bolt's delight his unoriginality and his copying of Chris Uhlmann but it was strange because he seemed to be laughing a Pauline Hanson because as much as leftie's do use her as the butt of his joke. Here's what it really seemed. (ODT)
Personally, I found it said more about the conservatives who thought they had a slam dunk with this milkshake ducking. Many seemed to think support for Parker would drop like a rock — as if those on the more progressive side of politics would be so aghast and throw their hands in the air in despair.
" Either way, nice scoop, but big swing, no ding."

Hey @RFSCommissioner

It appears Paul Parker has been denied due process by the RFS.

The RFS has an extensive discipline & appeal procedure that was NOT adhered to by the management of Nelligen/Batemans Bay Brigades
 

Fake News

Sold to us by elitists like Andrew Bolt

 Andrew Bolt lets Stan Grant know his history doesn't count only one history contains the truth and it's Andrew Bolt's. It's uplifting like a Wagner Opera and can now be heard and read on two Australian university campuses paid for by the great Ramsay Centre. You can now buy a degree get a scholarship and become a specialist a priest in the history and culture of Western civilisation. Like Hitler worshipping German Culture Bolt bows down no lifts his head up to Western culture. 

Hitler saw German culture as pan-European Bolt dreams of the West as pan-global and English as the world language read and spread by the Murdochs. It's his justification for the current crusades in the Middle East, The need to eradicate the virus multiculturalism in Australia the need re-establish all our institutions currently diluted by the ideals of globalisation, human rights, equality and the nonsense that everyone is born equal and worthy of being elected.

Bolt's family his ancestor all felt the way he does too but they directed their criticisms back then against the Jews. (ODT) 

 

STAN GRANT WANTS MORE RIGHTS THAN YOU BECAUSE... LOOK AT HIS ANCESTORS!

Poor, oppressed Stan Grant. He's had every legal advantage enjoyed by Australian citizens, but now wants more because of his race: "I don't enter the Australian nation as a settler or a migrant; I enter it through the inheritance of my Indigenous ancestors." Actually, Stan you entered it just as millions of us did: you were simply born here.

RAMSAY CENTRE IS FUNDING THE ENEMY

I warned that the Ramsay Centre would be funding the enemy if they spent philanthropist Paul Ramsay's money on getting universities to teach what Ramsay wanted to promote: Western civilisation. Sure enough, the signs are bad now that it's finally persuaded two universities to take its cash. Janet Albrechtsen has checked the curriculum.

DUSTY'S 'ABORIGINAL' DAD MAKES HIGH COURT LOOK SILLY

Will Dusty and dad now remove their neck tattoos saying they belong to New Zealand's Ngati Maru tribe?: "Shane Martin, the ex-bikie boss and father of AFL star Dustin Martin, was issued a certificate confirming his Aboriginality..., putting further pressure on the federal government to allow him to return to Australia." Thanks to the High Court.

There were Andrew Bolts at the beginnings of Industrialisation too and they were as anti-progressive as Bolt is today. Had they been listened to we'd still all be Amish driving about in horse and carts but not on our own land. However, science was listened to back then as were the cost benefits and they were taken into account and the transition from Feudalist to Capitalist organisation went ahead with bosses and workers in agreement in most cases.
Transition is the word missing in Bolt's alarmism his is the push back to any notion of transition or progress and the denial of costs that will occur if climate change action doesn't go ahead. his cost analysis pays no account to anyone not on Australian company boards. His adaption adjustment and resilience isn't for a common good.
Unlike the Germans whose boards and committees are inclusive of both workers and owners 50/50 and gender 40/60 Australian boards are totally at war with their workers and intent on diluting anything that gives them any input. Transition in Germany has public support and has been relatively painless as it has in Scotland and Scandanavian countries including Bolt's beloved Socialist Netherlands. So yes its no wonder the Germans do see a pixie in every garden and all Germany can see a day when everyone will gorge on chocolate cake.
What makes Bolt such a sceptic when there already are world economies effectively and efficiently delivering growth and moving towards net-zero emissions. Bolt prefers to mock reality rather than be a Real News Man. What a bummer he and the Murdochian's are. Maybe because Rupert is heavily invested in and on the board of Genie Oil illegally mining in Israeli occupied Syria. (ODT)

AND A PIXIE IN EVERY GARDEN

After this, the Business Council of Australia will demand a plan to have everyone gorge on chocolate cake while achieving zero weight gain: "Westacott and the BCA scoping paper make clear the task now is to devise a plan for how 'the Australian economy most effectively and ­efficiently delivers growth while achieving net-zero emissions'."
