Sure the prices have increased 25% -35% but we must not forgot averages wages are 1/3 of what they were in the 1970s.

Bastards in Australia have a way of distracting us from the hard issues and the real culprits.

Employers/news media encourages talk about rent and prices because it means we aren’t talking about wages.

Farmers like talk of global warming because it means we don’t talk about the 100 years of damage farming and farming pollution has done to the environment.

Industry likes it when we talk of household water restrictions so we don’t look at the subsidies and water waste of farming and mining

It would not surprise me if we pushed hard on the issues activists would be bumped off just like are in other countries.
