What Can Australians Do About the Current Political Situation?
Yes!!! I was thinking about that today. I was listening to The Unfair Advantage - Pay for Performance Politicians.
That makes sense. Why should someone who wrecks the country end up with a wage for ...

What Can Australians Do About the Current Political Situation?

Having the Democrats or Greens revitalized would probably be the best thing to happen.
Or the National Party, that's pretty dead. Or all ...

What Can Australians Do About the Current Political Situation?
This was a very interesting and informative discussion for me, not only because I got to learn a few more things about Australia but also because you pointed to some important books. I will go back to read Bauman -- what a great suggestion! Will ...

What Can Australians Do About the Current Political Situation?
Yes I did get the gist of controlling food.

Care to start a party?
If you created a political party what would you call it? Jo

What Can Australians Do About the Current Political Situation?
It makes sense. Labor is for the workers. Liberal is for business. Greens are for treehuggers. That's roughly the associations. That effectively sidelines Greens.
Food is what we share. You will see people Instagramming it as if they can ...

So have we turned full circle?
Back to the Hunger Games?

What Can Australians Do About the Current Political Situation?

Same-Sex Wedding Planners: Guidebooks for a Gay Wedding
You've hit the nail on the head with the stress and too much money thing. Not many people seem to get married here, but when they do, most of the recent ones have been abroad. It's cheaper to ship your dress to, say, Cuba, and pay for a ...

Redditors Rise Up Against Holocaust Deniers
That's because you're a well-balanced individual with no need to make up stuff to feel good. :)
The drip-drip of Islamophobia is a really good modern example of how society can turn against a sector of itself. You don't have to be far right to ...

Same-Sex Wedding Planners: Guidebooks for a Gay Wedding
It's okay. It was a while ago, and really they're never painful memories anymore so I didn't think about it before mentioning it :) Sorry, that was actually a bit random though, now that I think about it, I hadn't meant for that. It was just ...
