The bullshit thread

[Redneck]

Yeah it is BS. Cutting politicians' pensions would be a good place to start but that's never going to happen either.

Well it did happen some years back,

the current ones dont get as much as the old members, however none of them should be able to access it until around 65yo imo.

Read the article I just posted. It's a disgrace!

Total current liability of the pre-2004 parliamentary pension scheme to be, get this, $912.9 million this year.

They aren't worth a billion cents.

Close enough to a billion dollars a year.....and there are parts of the community who laud politicians....
What a joke...and the jokes on us.....

I think I heard last night that the government rakes in .45c on every litre of petrol.

Actually it's higher than that.
It's around 70 to 70 c per litre
And I'm not sure, but I think there is an additional charge for roads added

And here us a kicker
You pay GST on petrol.
So In fact, you are paying tax on a tax.

Back in the 70s, the garages started putting up posters saying petrol $xx.xx plus tax.
I calculated it out then as $0.73 in the dollar.


The grubberment are as addicted to petrol tax as they are to stamp duty.
Two of the most insidious taxes imaginable.

They do and provide absolutely nuffink and yet get a massive income from it.
It's a wonder they haven't sold it off like they did the lotteries.

WE NEED A REVOLUTION

Revolt against who? It’s the Liberals introduced the GST!

Yep, by the man who invented "core" and "non-core" electoral promises and who once claimed that he "never, ever would introduce a GST." Anybody care to guess who this sainted individual was? Why, of course it was John Winston Howard. Tsk, tsk, to think such a Tory saint could turn out to be such a duplicitous bastard, hey?

Go back over any of my posts where that base turd is referenced.
I refuse to use capitals when using it's name
I plan to have a good riddance party when it finally dies
And if I can find it's grave, I will shite on it, regularly.
howard the coward, only joined politics to get out of the draft, it was his only guaranteed out.

I had an ex-soldier working for me a few years ago.
His job was to escort howard around a SECURE AND WELL DEFENDED base of operations while he was over there.
The soldier told me, they all laughed about the cowardly turd.
Every explosion, even many miles away saw him jump and turn white.
He wore a vest and helmet all the time.
His one aim was to get out as soon as possible, so once the photo shoot was over he was running for the plane to leave.

Just for fun, one of the pilots said that his plane was shot at while coming to pick up howard the coward, and that he woukd do his best to get them out without going down.
Apparently howard the coward nearly passed out.

And this is the turd that sent soldiers into a war, illegally.
And presided over war crimes.

May he rot in the deepest depths of hell for eternity.

Now thats different....an Australian politician under suspicion for a rort.....
Would never happen in Australia....wash your mouth out with soap......

Nor do I. The few who seem temporarily decent just get stomped on until they are stamped out.

Awesome, so who should we be revolting against?
And what do we replace, that to which we were revolting?
