  Consultants Destroy Oz Politics posted by darcy, 2016-03-16 05:44:03
The disillusioned voting public of Australia wonder at times why both major parties do not reflect majority wishes or pursue pre-election promises/policies. Well, our pollies have been harnessed by consultants that view the majority as a mindless herd to be deceived and lied to, a la’ Tony Abbott style, well, he paid the price and so will his party, which have been advised never to reveal policies for fear they will be assessed and shown to be transparently serving elite corporate and banker interests and not the public-- so for God’s sake do not allow the public time to think. Meaningless political babble has become the order of the day for our major parties but particularly the conservatives, which are now becoming a laughing stock due to their consultant-led inability to speak freely to the electorate, the people they falsely hope would vote them back into office!

 ‘Anonymous’ hackers Declare War on Trump posted by fritz, 2016-03-15 18:54:18
The Independent UK recently ran a story about the Anonymous hacking group targeting election disruptor Donald Trump. Firstly, it should be made very clear that there is nothing anonymous about this FBI and agency hacking group. The elite hacker underground is fully cognisant of the fact that ‘anonymous’ was formed to entrap hackers whose attacks were disrupting elite powers. Indeed, the headlines were full of stories of busts the FBI made as a result of their ruse and entrapment vehicle. Kiddie hackers have also steered clear of this organisation as a result, notwithstanding the elite hacker fraternity made it known from the start. (full story)

In our time, the issue that subsumes all others is the issue of the survival of the human species. The primary threats to this survival are climate change and global nuclear war. Of course the interiors of these primary threats are swarming with countless contributing secondary issues. (full story)

Anyone tuning into the news headlines yesterday could have been forgiven for doing a swift double take at the calendar to ensure we hadn’t somehow fast forwarded to April 1. (full story)

 Hillary: The Bilderberg, CFR, Poison Pill posted by Paul Edwards via jaxie, 2016-03-11 21:33:05
The Republican supernova hissyfit over Trump with the faux-Latino twits snapping at his pantlegs has so owned the media that the Gorgon trying to herd Democrats to their own implosion has escaped serious scrutiny. (full story)

Democracy, you won't find it in the USA posted by Patrick Buchanan via shirl, 2016-03-11 21:24:13
Over the long weekend before the Mississippi and Michigan primaries, the sky above Sea Island was black with corporate jets. Apple’s Tim Cook, Google’s Larry Page and Eric Schmidt, Napster’s Sean Parker, Tesla Motors’ Elon Musk, and other members of the super-rich were jetting in to the exclusive Georgia resort, ostensibly to participate in the annual World Forum of the American Enterprise Institute.

 B1 long range Nuclear Bombers in Oz – Isn’t that just Dandy? posted by des, 2016-03-09 19:12:52
The first thing to consider is that this astonishing compliance clearly changes the status of Australia from a peaceful, relatively neutral nation into a PRIMARY NUCLEAR TARGET. And considering that modern ICBMs contain up to 14 nuclear warheads, it’s goodbye ALL capital cities while leaving our precious resources free for the taking after the American made holocaust.

Get with it People, Agri-Corporations are Killing You posted by Kashmira Gander via jill, 2016-03-08 06:07:57
Today's atrocious diets are largely the result of marketing and advertising but they fail to tell the whole story. Modern diets kill to put it succinctly. All one need do is walk down the aisle of any modern supermarket to see myriad processed products which we are encouraged to consume, notwithstanding the further we depart from natural foods the greater cost to our overall health and well being. The following story highlights only one over-consumed product, meat. (full story)

 Winning the War on Drugs posted by justin, 2016-03-07 08:39:13
Simple, as the only drug war America has won was on prohibited alcohol – and how dear reader did the State win that war, by legalising alcohol consumption and taxing alcohol producers? (full story)

Passive Inaction and Doomed Workers posted by gary, 2016-03-05 09:20:38
I marvel sometimes at the passive acceptance of people that are dumped from their corporate jobs. Corporate executives seem to think it is they that build successful companies. Nothing could be further from the truth, CEOs and execs are a dime a dozen and those that secure a position imagine it is they alone that are responsible for company profits and successes when in fact it is each and every individual worker regardless of position that has built the company and ensures its success; yet when execs make wrong decisions it is the workforce that pays by being made ‘redundant,’ or to put in blunt terms, sacked, terminated -- good luck with feeding your family and paying your mortgage.
