Western Australia is being Gaslit
Просмотров 16 тыс.23 часа назад
A handful of predominantly foreign owned gas corporations export 90% of WA’s gas. They receive most of the gas royalty free, contribute less than 2% to WA’s budget, often pay little if any tax and receive enormous taxpayer subsidies. So why do people think that gas is the backbone of the WA economy? Senior Content Producer Elinor Johnston-Leek explains. Sign up to get our latest analysis sent t...

Wealth of nations: how Australia’s prosperity is funnelled to the ultra-rich

Australia’s flawed tax system means that there’s never been a better time to be ultra-wealthy in Australia, despite some people struggling to put food on the table. We’re told it’s a cost-of-living crisis, but not everyone is feeling the pinch. New Australia Institute research shows that the ultra-rich are getting richer, thanks in part to Australia’s distorted tax system. On this episode of Fo...

    Australians are being literally plundered by multinational corporations with the help of the Australian government. This is not called unregulated capitalism, but neoliberal neocolonialism. There is a subtle irony here. All these silly, racist white people from the former European colonies are now being reduced to the servile status of black Africans from the early 19th century.

Then we have Aussies, foreign company, all equipment is imported, products are transported on foreign ships, foreign workers. Why? We invest in houses, boats, holidays and welfare. Hence we depend on foreigners. They invest in their future, we don't.

    Please stop the BS about climate change and Natural Gas being a greenhouse gas . Natural Gas has been spewing out of the ground for literally ever, just look at the Black Sea and the areas surrounding that sea. For ever and ever gas spews into the open air around the outside edge of that sea and yet the climate does not suffer. The Black Sea is black because of the natural gas being forced into the water from the depths of that sea. Please wake up to the political spin of climate change.

    The privately owned Reserve Bank cares only for the value of its currency in order to circumvent hyperinflation and the bail-out of banks, plus the vested interest of its stakeholders. And, to appease the Bank of International Settlements. Plus, everything is being done to save the Bretton Woods system while Australia’s gold is held over in England for safekeeping, never to be returned unless Australia follows in the footsteps of France where it sent its navy to the USA to demand the return of their gold after WWII. In the meantime, everyday Aussies are being fed BS from the Government whose Future Fund (not a superannuation fund) eagerly awaits the return on its investment in a foreign company fuelling a war, in order to supply additional housing. The pub test says we’re hurting. Lesson learned, never vote for a major party ever again. They care only for your vote and their political donors. Follow the money people.

      According to old newspapers held by the National Library of Australia, the Government wanted the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) to be Australia’s central bank. However, it being a trading bank, the other banks argued the CBA would have an unfair advantage. So, a Bank of England representative was sent, and the matter was resolved. The RB is not government owned.

Australian users pay 50x as much, none of it for local use & the Victorian Government is giving $3,000 grants to convert gas water & household heating rebates for conversion to Electricity. Labor won't allow new Bass Straight rigs. Australians are paying to be poor under Labor!

So wtf do so many of you keep voting for either Labor or Liberal ? Our political system was set up to be able to work just fine with all independent members of parliament - we do not need any one party in control. Imagine all decisions being made by independent voting and imagine your local member asking his constituents how the majority of them want him/her to vote before making his vote. This can be done in Australia - at the moment.

      The music is only a reflection of the soulless capitalist society we live in, because music is a reflection of the reality we live in, and if not that then it's used as an escape from our reality and society. And more over one can easily claim that the music in the eighties was soulless and meaningless. And as far as morality is concerned it has proven it's self to be immoral. just think of the tens of thousands of women that where burnt alive at the stake in the name of morality.
