The Democratic Majority of Australia has Woken!

international / prose / post

Indeed, average Aussies have been FORCED to withdraw support for the majors as they have been left behind with stagnant UN-viable wages, horrendous leapfrogging prices for everything, un-affordable housing, un-prosecuted corporate crime and fraud and a nation going backwards at speed. Who is responsible for the dismantling of our manufacturing base and placing thousands of workers on dole queues and allowing living standards to plummet? Answer, successive incompetent Lib/Lab governments, no-one else! The Reality is simple, ignore the people and nation to your very great cost, puppet majors.

The major parties are so busy lying to the people and playing adversarial politics they have forgotten their essential duty and that is to represent and support the majority and to competently govern the nation, NOT support the MINORITY, already wealth-bloated, corporate elite.

The most stark recent examples of both parties ignoring the people, is the current PM’s budget, which ignores 75% of the population and gives tax and other breaks to big business, which is an historically failed economic strategy, as ‘trickle down economics’ clearly failed to trickle down when it was first embraced by the UK and America; of course, anyone could have told the fools that developed this plan that the elite hog everything they get, now a proven historical fact. But useless Oz conservatives, directed by their corporate bosses, are attempting to sell a failed economic plan to Aussies that know better and are acutely aware of the difficulty of surviving today -- education, health, pensions, have been slashed but the corporates continue to benefit, is that fair in a nation that prides itself on a fair go for all?

The so-called worker’s party, Labor, is also in the grip of the minority elite; the SDA, one of the largest unions in Australia actually supported the corporate elite in a case of a worker that lost out on an enterprise bargaining agreement, an illegality, as no EBA should leave workers worse off than the basic award. The Coles worker took the matter to the Fair Work Commission which ruled that major corporates that have underpaid their workers must adhere to the law and repay ripped off workers and raise wages to minimum legal levels. Imagine the brazen gall of this union, which is now supported by the ACTU, which institution’s credibility is now in the gutter with the reputation of former union boss, Bill Shorten, who refused to condemn the SDA’s actions and support Australian workers! The truly amazing thing is that both divorced from reality, navel-gazing parties imagined the people wouldn’t notice their treacherous behaviour but fall for their lies instead, WHAT, not a chance! This disconnection simply highlights the degree to which these two puppet ‘leaders’ have lost contact with the people/nation and REALITY -- it’s all about them, the nation/people can do their best or go take a hike, that message is CLEAR.

Well, yet ANOTHER stupendous, divorced from reality misjudgement, as it is the PEOPLE who determine government!

The people, for very good reason, have had enough of the two corporate-owned major parties; a recent poll has indicated that record numbers of voters have withdrawn their support for the useless majors, which are led by narcissistic, flawed and incompetent personalities more interested in becoming PM for its own sake than leading the nation and supporting the population.

We’ll see if the above poll results wake the two majors to the reality on the ground. However, both majors are consultant driven by marketing, image, ad-men/women, which only know how to trick and deceive, and it is precisely this approach that has ruined the two majors. No matter how much you attempt to disguise a turd its stench always gives it away.

Clearly, the two majors will never learn unless FORCED by reality. By July 2 the people would have had so much irrelevant crap and antiquated, TRANSPARENT strategies thrown at them, it will be a wonder if either major would be able to form government.

So, rather than be placed on dole queues and forced to live like slaves the people will sack UN-representative lying, sellout politicians. Who do these two-faced, elite captured politicians think they are kidding? The best possible outcome for Australia/the people, would be to IGNORE both major parties and vote for REPRESENTATIVE candidates with a track record on July 2. Any vote for either major party would clearly be a wasted vote.
