A single case of Private Conservatorship may have been won in The US. Protection against abuse may be the basis for the “arms-length” clause in administration of Trusts in Australia. However "arm-lenth" becomes a contradiction when the law hands and rubber stamps peoples estates and lives over to the mega-corporate giants like the Public Trustees. There are hundreds of thousands of Australians trapped under the administrative clutches of the Public Trustees that no longer serve those willed  into or the government puts their charge.

The term "fee for service" has been lost when it comes to these self-governing profit-making corporations against which people have no redress and are little more than Soylent Green. It’s about time it's now the 22nd Century and they need to be revisited given close examination again as to who they actually benefit. Britanny would never have been heard of or stood a chance if swallowed up by them. Shouldn't there be an independent audit on numbers of people they have threatened, mistreated, charged, prosecuted, and whose funds they have misappropriated withheld and profited from without consequence. An audit on fees charged for service and not just profit?

 What began as post-war organizations of care have now grown into silent private mega-corporations harvesting yields which become their primary reason for being rather than who they serve. Where the term  reasonable charge for service no longer applies and from which there is no passage of escape. There are no heroic Brittany tales to be found there. Isn’t it about time the curtain was drawn open on these faux charitable last century poor houses and their administration charges and procedures audited?

 The LNP has used war as a weapon to maintain it's power in political and used it against Australians not for them. Korea, Russia, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria  have been tools to gain or retain power. The same can't be said of the ALP. Should we be surprised at the degree to which we have attached ourselves ever increasingly to the American hip. Our domestic politics, our culture every aspect of our post WW2 lives has the star spangled banner imprinted on it. Close examination shows it to be no accident. History has been a domestic struggle between Democracy and Autocracy between the Australian Labor Party and those that have always believed they were born to rule the LNP. To attempt to mainframe  our history in any other terms blurs the point. The Morrison government is certainly not a reflection of any progress being made or even imagined..

Paranoia about Chinese influence in Australia is on the rise — and the Australian ruling class is stoking tensions between China and the United States. For the sake of world peace and prosperity, they have to be stopped.

 There is no doubt that since WWW2 Australia has become increasingly Americanized. Our culture and Institutions more than reflect that. So much so our current leaders uptake just about any political idea that comes out of America. The current worst stricter voter ID when it's not necessary. 

So why should we be surprised when we see the worst of Individualism raising it's head on the streets of Melbourne. Yelling "Sack Dan" and " I don't need to get vaxxed if I don't need to so fuck you". Are we really so American?

It seems to me that in our haste to blame Trump and the culture that produced him for why the rate of vaccinations in America trails every other wealthy country, we’re missing a character trait that may offer a fuller explanation. This trait is found among Democrats and Independents in blue America as well as Republicans in Trumpland. In fact, I think it’s been near the core of the American personality since before the founding of the nation — a stubborn, selfish individualism. What do you think?

  Trump gives green light to the Turkish invasion of Syria, abandoning Kurdish allies | The Independent

Perhaps the harshest criticism of Mr Trump’s decision came from Brett McGurk, who resigned last year as the Trump administration’s special envoy on Isis, following a hastily announced troop withdrawal. 
“Donald Trump is not a commander-in-chief. He makes impulsive decisions with no knowledge or deliberation. He sends military personnel into harm’s way with no backing. He blusters and then leaves our allies exposed when adversaries call his bluff, or he confronts a hard phone call,” Mr McGurk said on Twitter. 
He added that the White House statement “demonstrates a complete lack of understanding of anything happening on the ground. The ‘United States’ is not holding any Isis detainees. They are all being held by the SDF, which Trump just served up to Turkey.”

The Russians signed a treaty with Poland broke it allowing Germany to Invade. Trump didn't even notify the coalition allies of his decision and Morisson agreed to have this guy's back under all circumstances. So can Australia really rely on America with a President like Trump in charge?

ELIZABETH WARREN - FROM FAKE INDIAN TO FAKE VICTIM OF SEXISM

Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren has made a career out of playing the victim. First, she claimed to be a Cherokee Indian. Now she claims she lost a teaching job because she became "visibly pregnant". But that's not what she said in an interview in 2008. What's worse in a potential president: lying or being addicted to poor-me victimhood? 

 If Andrew Bolt had written these comments about an Australian, he'd be back in court facing Mordecai Bromberg again. But because its an accusation about an American he feels safe and even safer because its about a woman. As for the question what's worse a President lying some 13,000 times since taking office, running a business, playing golf and watching TV and extorting foreign assistance to help him win the next election well the answer is a laydown misere, particularly when that President has the worlds largest fake media organization supporting every false move he makes.

NO, PAUL, LIBERALS WOULD RATHER FIGHT AND LOSE THAN ACCEPT TURNBULL'S SURRENDER

Column  Paul Kelly again appeals to Liberals to back Malcolm Turnbull:  “There would be no greater folly for the Liberals than triggering a leadership crisis on top of the dual citizenship crisis." Sorry, Paul. People don’t work that way. Many Liberals would rather fight for their beliefs and lose, than surrender to Turnbull's and win.

Amazing isn't it Bolt even talks like a terrorist fighting for a faith without reason"See, fighting for something you believe in — especially against a menacing foe — is fun. It fires you up. It inspires supporters to donate their cash and sweat, even in tough times."Bolt Science was shown the backdoor in Australia under Abbott and logic well that's now a foreign word as far as the right is concerned. Bolt admits while coward Climate deniers are abandoning ship for the other side because of the advance of logic, science, and technology he still sees it as "fun" fighting the menacing foe. Yes, Bolt even sounds like a radicalized child of IS it's just all 'fun'.

 America now is the only country in the world that irrationally believes like Bolt why? The major source of income for Rupert Murdoch in the USA, his cash flow, is dependant on advertisers the likes of Extractors like the Koch Bros and the other members of the Fossil Fuel Industries who funded Trump's Presidency. However, Like dominos American states like California are now going independently Green despite Trump's destruction of the EPA. When it comes to Climate Trump is the Kim Jong-un of Science the only country on the planet against it not for logic but interest sake.

So yes in a word it appears a minority of Liberals would prefer to go down fighting like IS rather than surrender they'd rather commit mass suicide as did religious fanatics did in Jones Town and Waco Texas. Mass suicide will leave them never to be forgotten in history but only because of their legacy that of just another religious cult.

News Corp attacks it's own when anyone of their pack challenges their faith-based and venal driven logic which in itself is an oxymoron or contradiction in terms.

SAVVA DOES IT AGAIN: EVEN THIS IS ABBOTT'S FAULT

Niki Savva is absolutely brilliant. Even in this citizenship debacle, she finds room to blame Tony Abbott - not Malcolm Turnbull: "If blame needs to be laid, it should be at the feet of previous leaders, their off­ices or the parties’ federal directors in control when the 'offenders' were preselected or elected."

" If blame needs to be laid, it should be at the feet of previous leaders, their off­ices or the parties’ federal directors in control when the 'offenders' were preselected or elected." Savva

Kelly and Savva are perfectly right but Bolt wants this buried under the carpet again and again and again.  At least we have found out where he lunches some pub in Footscray where Sam tried to have a meal. Dastyari didn't attack the Bolt's mates the way Bolt attacked pranksters in Carlton

The function of the Organizational Arm of the Liberal Party was left to ignore one of its major responsibilities while under Abbott's and no doubts Howard's leadership. However, it grew irresponsible not because of whatever Abbott did directly but their attention on him as minders. That left nobody telling them to do what they were really there for and that was the problem. The more Abbott relied on them the less they fulfilled their function. They took their eye off the ball. One of their primary jobs was to vet the eligibility of the nominees for their suitability for pre-selection and that's why Kelly and Savva are on point. Bolt wants to bury this and that Abbott helped ignore for 6 years allowing it to happen to culminate in this.

 

A PARLIAMENT OF ROGUES

Who can trust this Parliament to be properly elected? How can these politicians tell us to respect their laws when they refuse to prove that they are respecting our Constitution? As Labor and the Liberals are still haggling over how to handle the citizenship crisis. My editorial on The Bolt Report.

1h3
Bolt seems to think this is a universal issue in Australian Politics however at the moment it isn't Labor has justified itself as the one and only political party with an administration that functions.
It seems the Liberal Party doesn't. As for a parliament of rogues, we have watched it live for almost 50 years. We saw it with Fraser and Whitlam, Howard and children overboard WMDs, and Iraq, Abbott, with Hanson, Peter Slipper, and the Alfalfa Club. Used car salesmen have got a bad rap when standing next to the leaders of the Liberal Party. Bolt's simply trying to spread the blame when it can't be spread.

MARK LATHAM CHECKS THE MULTICULTURALISM OF FAIRFIELD

Mark Latham checks on the health of multiculturalism of Fairfield. The problem with his survey is that too few of the new Australians have enough English to respond. Watch.

31m9 Link

 Latham should have gone to Footscray and he'd have discovered the lack of not only English skills of Australians born here but the lack of the welcoming nature Australians were once proud of. Fair Go Australia has been renounced and replaced with a "fuck off back to where you came from" mate.  But Latham even as a well-known bruiser know better than to stick his unwanted microphone in the faces of Australians. If he'd surprised Bolt we'd see a startled suit with clenched fists.
Bolt gets off on this but not when he's surprised and glittered so as long as it's not happening to him he' applauding bad behavior. Remember just how Bolt and his wife exploded because the media printed that their son had a job at the IPA. They certainly don't like to be intruded on what a bellowing whinge we heard. But Bolt loves it when it's being done to others. By the way the others the new arrivals all had smiles on their faces and kept their decorum unlike the Bolt's in Carlton. Latham wasn't smiling either was he just look at the photo?   Have we turned into applauding thugs in suits to dominate our media? What we should be grateful for they don't rate. Latham was once a rising star of the ALP and now he's just a mug thankful for the nuts fed him bigger dickheads like Bolt whose Australian pride amounts to that of Patriots Blue's. Bolt and Patriot Blue show their contempt for Australia and Australians and their desire to limit our freedoms. There is a very heavy psychotic element involved here and it's been given the confidence to reveal and marshal itself publicly.
Bolt's justification for the freedom to bully is that it happens to conservatives as well and that alone is the escuse bullies use to attempt to escape blame. It was  Trump's attempt to excuse what happened Charlottesville. The consequence however is all they do is make themselves out to be Neanderthals.

On my shows tonight: How mad is wind power? Check Adelaide.

What does Bolt mean by his "shows" tonight? he only has one official show and he's a guest on another but it appears that's just not good enough for Bolt's CV he's as obsessed about having his name plastered over another hosts name as he is trying to have his name removed off the Section 18C's convictions and court records. Is Bolt hoping for a call from Trumpland and Fox News? 

Anyway Bolt's called Rowan Dean in to his show tonight to no doubt mock Islam as 2 ignorant bogans might. The no doubt will speak of Islam as if it's one unified and structured Church which it isn't. Like Judaism it's a collection of diverse communities practicing Islam in very significantly different ways. So Bolt disparaging and mocking a poster as if it was representative of Islam would be me mocking the Dutch because of his heritage. It would be insulting  and ignorant of me to begin to suggest that Bolt was typical or rather the Dutch were in anyway typified by one Andrew Bolt. But that is the stupidity you will be invited to watch on the Bolt Report tonight. 

Majority Muslim nations had female politicians and heads of state that were practicing Muslims before Australia " The most prominent Muslim female leaders are former prime minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto (served 1988-1990 and 1993-1996), Indonesian President Megawati Sukarnoputri (elected 2001), former Turkish Prime Minister Tansu Ciller (served 1993-1995), former Senegalese Prime Minister Mame Madior Boye (appointed 2001), Bangladeshi Prime Ministers Begum Khaleda Zia (served 1991–96 and 2001–06) and Sheikh Hasina Wajed (first elected in 1996), former Iranian Vice President Masoumeh Ebtekar (served 1997–2005), Malian president Cissé Mariam Kaïdama Sidibé (elected in 2011), Kosovan President Atifete Jahjaga (served 2011–16), and current President of Mauritius Bibi Ameenah Firdaus Gurib-Fakim (elected in 2015)."

 The Qur’an contains verses that appear to support the role of women in politics, such as its mention of the Queen of Sheba, who represented a ruler who consulted with and made important decisions on behalf of her people.^[3] Further, the Hadith provides numerous examples of women having public leadership roles. Muhammad’s first wife Khadija bint Khuwaylid was his chief adviser as well as his first and foremost supporter. His third wife Aisha Abu Bakr, a well-known authority in medicine, history, and rhetoric, often accompanied the Prophet to battles, even leading an army at the Battle of the Camel.^[1] However, it is also within the context of this battle that a famous hadith is ascribed to Muhammad where he says "Never will succeed such a nation as makes a woman their ruler."^[4][5][6][7]

Islam on show: women blotted out

The claim that Islam merely protects women's modesty is debunked by this poster for the Australian Islamic Peace Conference. The real agenda - at least of these preachers - is to blot out women's identities. But where are the feminists to protest?

 

 

  Bolt uses mockery and  confirmation bias to laugh and smear a poster about an Islamic Peace Conferance. However he hasn't mentioned a peep with regard the child molestation report in Catholicism 4,500 cases since 1980 and Bolt is mocking a poster. What a man he's focused his hatred on differences that can be found in a Multicultural Society. Maybe he can point out the differences between men and women and the way we Christians treat them so violently. There'd be a lot of mocking opportunity for him there. This is all coming from a man who insists politeness and respect stands head and shoulders over identity politics. Ugly Australians cry for Sharia Law to be banned along with Aborigine law. However nothing is ever said about about Cannon Law that has protected pedophile priests for years. Priests heard each others confessions and molestation wasn't reported. They heard children's confessions and abuse wasn't reported they just found new possibilities in the confessional box Have we ever heard Andrew Bolt mock this practice? No he mocks and organizations poster and deems it a symbol of Islam. The man is not only ignorant he's a fool. When has he said cited the fact that there have been more  women Muslim politicians than Australia ever had. Has he mentioned that Tunisia legalized abortion in the 70s when young Australian women were still going to the likes of Bertram Wainer. No Bolt doesn't mention that Pakistan had a female PM. When you start looking into various differences in Islamic countries you begin to see just how primitive, ignorant, bigoted and nonintellectual our self defined public intellectual really is. He is an ass.

 

 

 

Who will replace Turnbull: the form guide

THE Liberals are keeping Malcolm Turnbull as PM for now, not just because they fear voters will hate another change. They also can’t see an obvious replacement. Check the contenders:

This just a too obvious a structured PAYWALL

 Bolt starts with Julie Bishop and knocks her out to set up  Tony Abbott as a reason to pay to to read. Simply business as usual. However there's one truth that emerges Paul Kelly and Miranda Devine were right in their analysis of what is happening Bolt is just the constant boar telling us ought to be happening. It's a big difference one just a salesman for a side bugger the principles. Why did he set up Julie Bishop first to knock down? Is she the favorite.

Only a conservative can replace Turnbull

MALCOLM Turnbull is finished as Prime Minister and must be replaced — but only by a conservative. Don’t listen to the dumb talk that says Turnbull’s crash and burn in the polls proves changing leaders does not work. Wrong. It’s changing to a dud leader — whether Julia Gillard or Turnbull — that does not work. But changing to a better one does.  

 

Hammered by Paywalls

 

But why? it's going to be little more than a sales pitch for Abbott. However to do that Bolt has to push shit up a hill with a pointed stick and convince us that a merry go round of leaders is a good thing. He will have to tell us just how wrong the polls are and Tony Abbott really is the man for the job. Yes the polls are a see saw aren't they right about the party's fall from grace but wrong about Abbott. He's the misunderstood man again is he? The loyalist and not the cunning sewer rat others make him out to be. Well we do know he's not a Trump but not being a Trump isn't a plus

 

 

Savva lets slip: her Malcolm blames Morrison

Niki Savva is the most fiercely pro-Turnbull partisan, and clearly well-briefed by his team. Her husband also works for Turnbull. So I'd suggest that her shot at Morrison today shows Turnbull distrusts his Treasurer, Scott Morrison

 3 Days of self boosting by Bolt, Kill Kelly, Murder Miranda & Savage Savva only for Tony whose hard to boost because  talking of trust who threw Joe under the bus?

Andrew Bolt attacked Paul Kelly respected senior journalist at the Australian for what being too old? He then tried to steal Miranda Devine's stand in for Steve for himself  because she prefers yes you guessed it Malcolm Turnbull. Now he's directing his sights on Niki Savva why her husband works for Turnbull. "Niki Savva is the most fiercely pro-Turnbull partisan, and clearly well-briefed by his team. Her husband also works for Turnbull. So I'd suggest that her shot at Morrison today shows Turnbull distrusts his Treasurer, Scott Morrison"Bolt

What we have going on here isn't a commentary it isn't opinion it's yet another full blown  or flyblown campaign trying to have Caesar Abbott  called back as leader  and Niki is calling him a "fink". Does Bolt mention his standing in the polls not on your life because it's still shit. Yet Bolt appeals to the polls to prove the LNP are failing. It's almost as if Bolt's talking and boosting another party altogether, the Abbott Party the united party.

" Yes, Morrison has struggled to sell an economic message. But even the best Treasurers need a Prime Minister who supports them, not trips them." Bolt

Lest we forget what was the name of the PM that threw his treasurer  Joe Hockey under the bus?  

What we have here is a build up to a campaign Bolt is taking potshots at people that have some media clout and trying to take them down. Why it's his opportunity once again for self boosting

More Credlin is good for all - except her slanderers

More Peta Credlin is good for her, good for Sky News, good for political junkies and bad only for the journalists who have so slandered her. So her quitting the Packer empire to do more for Sky is just what I'd hoped to hear.

This is an Ad for something already known that Packer Murdoch and Credlin are already tied and close. They need to get Abbott back and we will have closed the circle to Australia's real state of corporate government affairs. Weakest link however would be Abbott as he has neither the money nor the nous to be PM. However as I said earlier conservative columnists like their counterparts in politics are going for the jugular and Bolt's been spitting bile all weak. Is it because George Pell is becoming an embarassment again? That Trump has simply gone from bad to worse. There seems just so much that Bolt wants not to talk about at the moment. So much silence going on about "confirmation bias" which Bolt has been doing for years and Trump is drawing attention to it in reverse. Underreporting it's all the rage with Bolt . Old News Credlin has to be dragged up again after all she's an underad for the Bolt Report really. When is Bolt going the get James Matheson on for a continued chat as he promised?

 The economics of the future energy system : Renew Economy

"Play our cards right, and Australia’s exceptionally rich endowment per person in renewable energy resources makes us a low cost location for energy supply in a low carbon world economy. That would make us the economically rational location within the developed world of a high proportion of energy‐intensive processing and manufacturing activity. Play our cards right, and Australia is a superpower of the low carbon world economy.
As we work through the challenges in the aftermath of South Australia’s electricity blackout, lets make sure that our responses enhance rather than truncate Australia’s and South Australia’s opportunities."
Ross Garnaut is professor of Economics, University of Melbourne and chairman of Zen Energy. This is a speech given to the renewable energy summit hosted by the South Australia government on October 6.

" Madness. This global warming policy is a deliberate policy to make us poor."Andrew Bolt . How rich does Andrew Bolt find it necessary to be?  In his "confirmation bias" approach to everything Bolt turns to SA lights going out due to exceptional weather. He doesn't exactly emphasize the weather though because that just might result in a discussion on climate change. Andrew Bolt jumps on individual events like this to support his self interested political conclusion drawn out of pro fossil fuel boosting and their bottom line interest. Basically he wants to tell us that renewable energy is expensive and will make us poor. My question is quite simple is Andrew Bolt wiser than Ross Garnaut has he studied the subject closely and why despite the lack of encouragement has the renewable energy industry been growing like topsy with investment pouring in? I think Professor Garnaut might have more to say about the progressive approach to energy than the regressive one Bolt keeps offering. Will the continuation of fossil fuels  maintain Australia as a leading energy hub in the future given that clean coal energy will require rising costs and renewable energy is now falling below the costs of coal and dropping. Bolt seems to always have his dollar tinted glasses on but not the ones that spell a betterment for the country.The confirmation bias and seeing only what you want to see ...

 

Gutless Victorian Liberals want gas drilling banned

Victoria's Liberal party proves it has no convictions and would rather help Labor make the state poorer than risk criticism on the ABC: "Victoria’s Coalition confirmed .... that [Labor's] legislation to ban fracking – and to extend a moratorium on conventional gas mining – would pass through Parliament with its support..." So why vote Liberal?  

Bolt logic Gold and gas companies mine  for a profit and do so when prices are UP. Does Bolt think they mine because they want to see prices drop  and make things cheaper for us all? If they export gas at a high price does he believe they will supply us locals at a low price? renewables are attractive simply because once established that's what they are in fact renewable and cheap. The production cost is falling not rising. Bolt even has the gall to declare the desalination plant a waste why because it hasn't been used for our safe water future yet. What doesn't he understand when it comes to "safety" first or the long term future if gas become too cheap mining it is over. Not so with renewable energy it will attract not detract high energy industry because it is cheap. 

 

Turnbull's "sycophant" attack: the verdict

Malcolm Turnbull attacks Bill Shorten as a "sycophant", a "suck up" to billionaires, a "social climber" and a "parasite". That's a sledge most journalists would damn if it came from Donald Trump. And is it doomed to be as "successful" as Gillard's "misogyny" spray? Here are the judge's verdicts.

  Is Bolt an avid Tony Abbott supporter the bouvver boy of question time being given an elephant stamp for politeness? Is Bolt's dummy spit on the Miranda Devine Show simply forgotten. What has Australia's question time historically the boys room of bad behaviour got anything to do with Dondald Trump making press announcements? No distictions obviously as far as Bolt's concerned yet just another opportunity for a put down of Turnbull a yes "My take - the sledge was good for rallying the troops but very few Australians outside Parliament and the press gallery saw it in full, which is how it gets its power." Bolt

" But for most voters, what counts far, far more is how the government actually affects their lives, and this attack will change that as little as did Julia Gillard's vicious slur of Tony Abbott as a "misogynist". And I suspect it will also do as little to save the Government."Bolt

The fact is Gillard's reprroachment shone a light on the man who told Australia's women they were better behind their ironing boards it was bright light that shone to show just what a misogynist Abbott is and it has stuck. It's also stuck with the patronizing Bolt and Blair in Sydney that keep refering to some women as "frightbats" and saying no misogyny intended. Bolt's no Tim Blair mind you he tends to be a meely mouthed patronizing pussy when around women and he started that with Miranda but did you hear him cry with Miranda threatening to hang up because she was ruining "his" or "our" not "her" show as advertised?  What's funny is two days later it was being advertized by Bolt as her show with him as a regular guest. The next night it was dropped and back as Steve's show which Bolt prefers to call "his". He's a man child it's why he's Trump

 

 

POLITICAL FUNDAMENTALISM & THE RAPE OF DEMOCRACY

The world's 4th most influential macro economists and Nobel prize winner Professor Joseph Stiglitz has declared the deregulation of our universities to be a " crime " and the introduction of co-payments for medical services " absurd " The adoption of  the American path is this governments two biggest mistakes that will ensure a widening of inequality and an increase in economic stagnation. "Countries that imitate America are kidding themselves"
The system that Pyne openly admires so much Tertiary Education is the worst functioning part of the US market and  in effect closes off opportunity. While the US  now is trying to regulate it we are about to deregulate and freeboot it. which according to Siglitz tantamount to a crime. That's a strong statement coming from someone who believes in a market economy and has more international awards than all the economic advisers put together in this country.
"Robust higher education, with healthy public support, was once the linchpin in a system that promised opportunity for dedicated students of any means. We now have a pay-to-play, winner-take-all game where the wealthiest are assured a spot, and the rest are compelled to take a gamble on huge debts, with no guarantee of a payoff." Students that don't have the social network to support their climb. Is a statement from an expert examining the history of unintended consequences of past decisions.
We admire the US so much Mitt Romney, the Republican presidential nominee a billionaire with a multi-million dollar income only paid 14% income tax and complained called 47% of  Americans  freeloaders" Doesn't that remind you of Hockey & Abbott's "Leaners and Lifters" description?
General Electric  the symbol for multinational corporations have their headquarters in the United States & pay almost no taxes 2% average annually over the past 10 years. We have Glencore our top coal miner pays zero tax on a profit  of 15 billion and those earning over $180,000 a 2% temporary levy for 3 years. However the indirect costs being put in place for ordinary Aus are going to stay. The income of the wealthy is far more easily manipulated downward and hidden than that of the average Australian worker.  Hockey & Abbott are spitting in the face of  Australia Fair.
 Government plays an important role not just in social protection, but in making investments in infrastructure, technology, education and health. These are pillars of trust. Without such investments, our economy will be weaker, and our economic growth slower.
 This government want's to deregulate the financial sector. Financial planners wont be obliged to work in the best interests of their clients. What do these people do? They are paper shufflers people who shuffle paper, sorry  our money for a commission. They don't produce or create anything other than ideas on how to shuffle more paper the more they churn the more commission they make and they are very creative at creating churning product. Look at what created the GFC and more recently look at the CBA planners. Up close and personal they will all tell you they have a "passion" for making you money, sorry, taking your money, servicing you no no giving you service.  With the aid of CBA's trusted reputation they talked client's up to buy more. Trust them and robo- sign yourself into debt. The bank did this with farmers and foreign exchange years ago and then foreclosed on them.This government calls it freeing up opportunity. Stiglitz describes it as stagnant "rent collecting" When trust is eroded the economy stagnates. What are they doing now to rebuild trust of other than the 1%ers?
 Abbott & Hockey have cut research funding, cut tertiary funding & indirectly cut health funding areas essential for confidence & growth. They believe in the honesty of the 1% they say drive the economy forward. However studies have shown that the upper classes are more likely to engage in what has traditionally been considered unethical behavior. Perhaps this is the only way for some to reconcile their worldview with their outlandish financial success, often achieved through actions that reveal a kind of moral deprivation. Behind every knighthood in this country lies some blood on the tracks of people injured in the encounter.
 Corman ,Brandis all say we don't need regulation we all have access to the law as if that access was an equal playing field. What access did SMSF retirees have after the CBA  ripped them off? 10% compensation for signing a non disclosure agreement. When trust is eroded and the government panders to the 1%ers over and above the general public growth stagnates.  When our media no longer print news  only commentary were do we get information.  The public broadcaster is about to be savaged. When anything that comes close to reporting facts or information it's declared left wing not just center left or center right. When government incumbant members are hounded as 5th columnists because they are reasonable or trying to find  bipartisan courses of action this country can agree on it's time for some plain speaking. We are losing our enthusiasm for politics and democracy is being raped.
