Anytime a government mentions privatising something, it sells a public asset for pennys in the dollar, which cuts quality of service to make a profit and as a result drives up its cost as the government that sold it pockets a commission to use as a war chest against its opposition.

It basically privatises the profit and socialises the debt. So instead of government debt (which is easier to pay off as governments don’t die like humans do and they get better rates of interest) it becomes public debt ie people become impoverished.

Recently economists in Australia have come to the realisation that inflation by in large isn’t caused by regular citizens as much as it by large private profits from ceos and executive pay packets and tax avoidance of the companies in general.

Taxing the large corporate empires that sneak into Argentina and pay little to no tax would not only address the cause of Argentinas inflation it would reduce the debt and pay for vital services like medical, roads, education etc…

An example that comes to mind is all the foreign mining companies that literally steal the wealth out the ground of your country and pay nothing to the people that live there.

Like what currently happens in most countries with conservatard governments in power

But don’t tell the Yanks they’ll replace your government before you can whistle Yankee doodle Gough Whitlam! Cough cough

Its not genocide when our friends do it

I would love this in Australia, all the private school soccer mums would revolt!

If only they could build housing underground, the need for heating or cooling greatly reduces. But this would require India to have decent infrastructure, planning and foresight. Hard to do with so much religous / political nonsense (caste system + modi ) standing in the way of progress

Australia would have had nationalised land and ocean resources like Denmark has right now. We would have been trillions in the black if it weren’t for Richard Nixon and Queen Elizabeth dismissing the then Prime minister Gough Whitlam back in the day!

Its such bullshit that all the US jeebus freaks think its somehow gods will and “Christ like” to deny people that are starving most of which are kids btw. Denying aid which would be easy to pass honestly before a cease fire is fucking cruel. So much for “good guy” america

Was gonna leave a comment here, but everything I could have said has been. Its heart warming to see so many people using their brains and backbone to speak out against this kind of bullshit. Although it probably won’t stop it being passed.

Unless you could pass a law to stop old people from voting as they have less skin in the game then a child does.

Looks like pirating content won’t just be for expensive streaming services yarrr

Half of the Gaza strips population are kids under 15, this cunt deserve a slow torturous fucking death for what he’s done.

If this fuck knuckle had an ounce of human decency, he could of simply annexed the Gaza strip to Egypt. Theyre at least tolerant of both Christians and Muslims.

So its bad when Nazi’s kill people indiscriminately, but when Jews do it to Palestinians that’s totally fine?

I think it would still work for Brisbane, the hydrofoil boats rise out of the water so they don’t experience the jostling you get in a conventional boat. You can have several ferries running back and forth morning noon and night that carry hundreds of patrons per ferry. You don’t need to build massive expensive tracks and they don’t stop at every two bit town and suburb. These are only linking major population hubs. The hydrofoil here has a top speed of about 50km/h which is average, but it would be travelling in a straight line up and down the coast and the Brissy trains only ever get up to about 80km/h and you have to travel inland to hop on one in the Sunny coast.

Here’s a video of the tech which could be scaled up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2RUVfEWQcE

Easy fix for coastal cities, hydrofoil electric ferries from sunny coast to Brisbane and goldie to Brisbane. No need for new infrastructure and imagine how quick they could fly across the water with no traffic lights or parking to contend with?

A linux vpn gui that connects to a universal api for all vpns that reports load and location to allow automatic switching for fastest VPN speeds all the times. Possibly with the ability to multiplex the packets to two or more VPN providers for better obfuscation. And with a nice GUI that has presets for popular vpns
