So Communist China is using Australia as stage one of their experiment to spy on the world....
Who woulda thought....
How much money did our government contribute to the China Infrastructure Bank to be a founding member....
738 MILLION dollars....how do we benefit from that....we dont......
And in return the CCP spy on us....
.....and buy up all our real estate, forcing prices up so far the average punter cant afford to buy a house any more...
Oh, and our politicians, state and federal, sell off our assets left right and centre.....to who....China....
China is no-ones friend.........
Yep...we are getting a great deal from China.....

It would be great if China took over.

Muzzos woukd all be sent to re-education centres.

Abbos would be sent to re-education centres

Dole bludgers would starve

Criminals would be punished

Politicians shot through the head.

Sounds like Eden to me.

And the rest of us would be at the mercy of one of the worst human rights regimes the world has seen. Valkie you reject socialism yet applaud communism. Very odd stance.

I lived in China for several years, the home of communism
They lived fairly free lives, as long as you didn't do the wrong thing or brought yourself to the authorities attention.

I have lived in Russia for 2 years, that is somewhat more communist than China, but again they had reasonable freedom providing you behaved yourself.

The US was more controlling than either of the above, you actually have less freedom there than in China from what I observed.

But for nanny state oppression, Australia takes the cake.
Everything is monitored, watched, analysed and reported.
Our politicians have taken Machiavellian to a new level making even Orwell appear to be an optimist.

And it will not get better, only worse.
The grubberment refuses time and again to give us a bill of rights.
They know doing so will end their tyranny and thus their ability to rob us blind while being free to live corrupt lives themselves.

I would like China to take over Australia to control these dictators, to clean out the public service of the corruption and greed.
China also knows the best way to control the PLAGUE of the CULT of DEATH.

Valkie, for Pete’s sake, China doesn’t even have google.

I hear the words of truth there

Until very recently, they were only allowed to have one kid. If you are poor and follow orders, you have nothing to lose and cost your masters nothing. I wouldn't call that freedom, but it may be peaceful with nobody riding you to obey.

I can see his assessment of the US. We are taxed 6 ways to Sunday and big brother is growing. If we were to be targeted by our government, they can trace our whereabouts with our phones, credit card, and toll tag usage. They can tell our political ideology by our purchases. They know who we donate money to. In some major cities, they have cameras with facial recognition, especially around major sporting venues. Many police cars have license plate cameras. If you have an outstanding warrant and the cop drives by your car, it lets them know. They can also use that data to track the location of every plate it reads. It can be overwhelming.

Texas is getting rid of stop light cameras. These cameras take photos of your car running a stop light and mail you a ticket and there is no defending against the ticket, even if you loaned your car to your neighbor and he ran the light in your car.

And you think Australian internet isn't censored?
And they are planning to get even more internet censorship.

China use Bing, not quite up there with Google, but much of the content is there.

It's mostly propaganda that Chinese are oppressed.
If they are so oppressed, why does China have so many millionaires?

As for the one child rule.
You know my feelings on overpopulation, he Chinese understood this need to depopulate the world, and set an example.
Unfortunately, the world ignored it and our population continues to grow uncontrolled.

The world will not end in nuclear war, alien invasion, climate catastrophe
The world will end because we will overpopulated it, use up all the resources and suffocate in our ow filth.

Perhaps China is more sensible than most countries.
A little hard, yes, but much more forward thinking than we believe.

I do worry about the Big Brother syndrome to be honest..

another Lib candidate has been stood down for a comment made on a website....

it would appear to me they are all being watched 24/7... and no one is allowed a personal opinion because for sure it will offend someone!

god help us if anyone reads these forums.....you would never want to run for office anywhere..

how do any of us know we are not under constant surveillance ?
