Grumpy Old Nasho

Our two party system is a con because it has two perpetual parties, the ALP and the Coalition. They've become so predictable, they're boring as all hell. I don't think they even know who or what they are anymore.

That's right, death to America.

Global Islamic terrorism needs to be eradicated. Iran is a good place to start, then Lebanon, then Western nations with muslim populations.

That's what we're supposed to do, isn't it? Or is it different in SA?

Compulsory voting was brought in by the Conservatives. Labor agreed with it.

If we stopped voting, then that would make the political class stop and think: "What are we doing wrong"

I've explained it before. The nearest polling booth and PO mailing box are 37km from my place. I won't travel that distance without being compensated for fuel, wear and tear, and lunch money. 74km total on rough bush roads dodging roos, wombats, and potholes. No thanks ... But for One Nation I might, because they have Traditional Aussies needs high on their list of considerations.

I haven't voted for the last four Fed elections, just paid the fines, because the major parties are more internationalist than Australian these days, I can't stomach them. But if a One Nation candidate is contesting in my electorate, I'll consider voting again, give them the top spot and place the major parties last and second last. Other than that, I'll just keep paying the fine.

It should be obvious. Integrate into the Aussie culture and Aussie values ... and be at least 3rd generation.

No, Trump won't punish Iran for too much longer. Iran would be getting the hint not to fund or encourage idiot foreign terrorist groups. Albo has admitted Bondi was because of Iran.

Abbott was a Pommie loyalist. I don't think any true Traditional Aussie took any notice of him. If you're not Aussie, you won't get anywhere.

The Constitution and the major parties are in question now because of their excessive international stance on everything. Australia has become a poor second. Islam seems to be an important priority for some strange reason. Traditional Aussie bushies view it as laughable, but serious, and we're coming closer together.

So we could see One Nation in opposition then? It'd be a welcome change.

If you could call it progress.

Since the major parties always win government, and have done since 1901, why not just let them alternate every three years. Imagine the money we'd save by not having elections, and all the political fighting would disappear, relieving all the stress of wondering if they'll win government. Each of the majors only need to wait three years and they'd be back in again. Good idea? What do you think of it?

I don't know why we import beef, but if you study Free Trade agreements, you'll probably find the answers.

Foreign corporations have feedlots here and the beef is exported. I think it's cheaper to produce it here. Aussie farmers got shoved aside once again.

"Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps base”. That's what was next to, or close to the school. Why weren't the kids given the week off, given that missiles were whizzing around overhead?

That's off topic. Something closer to the topic, because it's about muslims, is that our Fed Govt just announced that a certain muslim organization has been banned in OZ. Too extreme they reckon.

Two candidates put themselves up for election and one of them received more votes than the other.

Have the courage to handle it in an intelligent way.

Make it low risk for a start. And don't be fooled by superannuation's 8%, there's too many takers. Also superannuation needs to be monitored for fluctuations and volatility which may not be fully understood by young adults. As an ordinary worker, I lost ten years of gains in the 2008 crash, I was back to square one. I couldn't draw the money out because I had not yet retired, so I moved it to the Cash portfolio and left it there. Cash is like term deposits, and you don't lose any of it. I also had bank accounts and bank term deposits which I salary sacrificed into, a small amount each week. This built up and the returns started to overtake my Super returns. In the end Super was insignificant and my Bank account strategy paid off, beating my Super by hundreds of thousands of dollars, even after paying tax on my earnings. After retirement I was in a position to pay cash for a residential property to max $250k, with funds left over. And I didn't start early, I started late in the day. There was no bank fees, just continuous interest three months at a time, heaps of it, it left my Super in it's dust, regardless of what my Super portfolios were.

Probably the same reason I joined ... to provide some opposition to the excessive far-left viewpoints that distort facts and truth.

That's why the West should never have imported muslims. The cry "Death to America" is meant to go out to all muslims around the Globe, against the USA and it's Western allies.
