Australia is as totalitarian as they come. Because Australia is the original European Union, the structure of independent states forming a nation prevents it from becoming a dictatorship. If it becomes a republic under the control of one government, the only result is tyranny and absolute dictatorship.

The claims by mainstream society that women do not have the capabilities to achieve their goals or fill leadership roles and therefore require special treatment are false.

Installing an Aboriginal flag on the Story bridge is gaining support.

How much support is socio-economic equality & cultural acceptance in regional & remote Queensland gaining.

Support from suburban keyboard worriers with their fashionable morals means nothing.

Is Queensland the only jurisdiction in the world where donations to a political party or a politician are legislated as non-political?

On July 1, 2022, the Queensland government announced, "The new electoral reforms will increase public funding to $6 per first preference vote for a registered political party, and $3 per first preference vote for candidates. In return, big money donations will be stamped out, with political donations capped from 1 July 2022 to 30 November 2024 to $6,000 for candidates of the same party inclusive and $4,000 for parties". Notice the words political donations in the statement.

However, the facts are that the incumbent parties receive more money per first preference vote and the donation caps are not real. When the Queensland government announced the donation caps, they did not mention a new option to select a non-political donation.

All donors can select the 'non-political' donation check box, and the caps no longer apply. It is that simple. There is no scrutiny of what is a political or non-political donation. The Electoral Commission of Queensland (ECQ) cannot determine if a donation is political or non-political or how the party or politician will spend it.

We contacted the ECQ to clarify, and they confirmed it is as I have written above.

The great philosophical question remains. Can donations to a political party or a politician be non-political?

Monkeypox has been around for 52 years, why is it suddenly a problem?

Promoting a symbol for one minority because it's the flavour of the times is not inclusive. Perhaps it's better not to elevate one group above others. Or even better, don't group people based on race, gender, sexuality or beliefs in the first place.

Stating that the legacy of the 2032 Brisbane Olympics will reduce the housing crisis is foolish. A person of sound mind reasonably expects that the Queensland government will resolve housing issues well before 2032.

The cost of the Queensland governor has increased from $7m to $8m per annum and is projected to increase to $11m in 2022-23. That is a lot of money for someone that provides zero value.

Paying more or less based on sex violates industrial instruments and anti-discrimination laws. If the wage gap is so prevalent, where are the prosecutions?

What if the nations that have been terrorised and oppressed by the USA - which is the majority of the world - are secretly colluding against the USA? And, the conflict between Ukraine and Russia is a trap.

How is it possible that governments can pursue journalists and whistle-blowers across jurisdictions but are powerless against scammers who steal millions from vulnerable people?

If Julian Assange joined an Indian scam syndicate instead of escaping to the Ecuadorian Embassy, he would be a free man today.

Am I racist if I hate all people equally?

Australia has volumes of statutes and yet is lawless. A society where a small group of people can make and change laws for their convenience is lawless.

We are at a point where SARS-CoV-2 will be the least of our problems. Inflation will be the next global crisis.

The discussion or debate about whether a tomato is a fruit or vegetable is a fact of life. Almost everyone is proud that they know the difference. However, for a person that knows the facts, a tomato is both - a fruit and a vegetable. A vegetable is an edible vegetation, and the tomato is in the sub-group of vegetables known as fruit. A basic understanding of vegetable grouping demonstrates such.

The tomato phenomenon applies to almost all debates in the world. People debate and disagree without understanding the facts or reality. People disagree based on beliefs rather than researching the facts.

The saddest part is that this stupid thinking is cancer in the leadership of the world who make life and death decisions.

In socialism, the government collects taxes to collectively provide infrastructure, services and security to the people. In capitalism, the government collects taxes to give to themselves and their masters to sell infrastructure and services to the people.

In Australia, for nearly two years, people have endured the strictest lockdowns in the world, police brutality, excessive penalties, totalitarianism, loss of jobs and loss of family. Furthermore, the governments have forced people to accept injections of vaccines that are proven ineffective and unsafe. Nearly two years later, Australia is where it began in 2020.

For the stupid people reading this, forced means imposed by coercion or physical power, ineffective is not producing the desired effect and something that can cause death or injury is unsafe. The government has coerced people to inject the vaccines by denying jobs or access to places if they are not vaccinated. The vaccines are ineffective as people transmit the virus and have become ill or died from the vaccines or the virus after vaccination.

This world is a game and the laws are the rules. The person that has the best understanding of the rules wins.

Are politicians mostly stupid people because the occupation attracts such people, or they are easy to control?

Security for costs must never prohibit access to justice. When affordability prevents access to justice, the courts must examine the means of the defendant to absorb the costs in addition to the standard abuse of process examination.

Common law is fluid and forever evolving. It was created and refined over many centuries, tested by time and forged into justice.

Statutory law is rigid and synthetic. It is rapidly passed by totalitarian legislatures to maintain power and control.

In Australia, three branches of government include the legislature, the executive and the judiciary. However, despite the three branches of government, Australia does not have a separation of powers.

In Australian governments, the legislative assembly and the executive share their leadership. The judiciary interprets and applies what the legislature has legislated. The judicial branch of government does not have the authority to decide what is just.

When a judicial decision contradicts the expectations of the government, the legislature immediately amends the statutes to achieve the outcomes desired by the government.

The conflict is the members of the ruling party in the legislative assembly also serve as ministers in the executive branch of government. Therefore, it is a given that there is no separation of powers as the same people that create statutes also execute them.

The fundamental concern is that the judiciary cannot overrule statutes that violate common law and are unjust. This inability is at the state and federal levels throughout Australia.

If Australia has a separation of powers, citizens can seek justice from the judiciary. However, as it only interprets and applies existing statutes, it cannot overrule unjust orders, such as suppressing critics or political opponents.

Therefore, while universities and government institutions and their websites boast of separation of powers in government, the reality is very different.

Current SARS-CoV-2 vaccines only have provisional emergency approval in most jurisdictions. The Pfizer vaccine was fully approved in the United States of America. The vaccine was approved in that country because of self-regulation and a corrupt regulatory system. If a greedy corporation can fully approve itself, it will. Consider why it has not been approved in other nations and the Boeing 737 Max 8 disaster.

The current SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are not safe. If a vaccine has caused death or injury, the vaccine is not safe. However, bomb disposal is not safe either, but it is still better than the alternative.

Long term side effects or safety of any current SARS-CoV-2 vaccine is unknown and cannot be known as the vaccines have only been available for less than 12 months.

The Current SARS-CoV-2 vaccines do not prevent transmission of the virus and illness. Some data indicate that vaccines may prevent severe illness. However, herd immunity is not excluded as the cause. Governments, regulatory authorities and statistics have confirmed this. Vaccination, infection and hospitalisation rates have increased in western continents simultaneously. Data from the World Health Organisation (WHO) and your relevant state or federal regulatory authority will confirm this.

People are NOT more likely to die in a motor vehicle accident than from a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. IF the entire world population had a vaccination, it would be approximately seven billion vaccinations. People make more than seven billion motor vehicle trips in a single day resulting in fewer deaths. Stupid people compare the total number of deaths caused by the vaccination program to the total number of motor vehicle deaths.

In 1933 Germany, Jews, Jehovah's Witnesses, homosexuals and political opponents were dangerous and therefore had their rights taken away. In 2021 Australia, critics of the government and unvaccinated people are dangerous and have their rights taken away.

The Boeing 737 Max 8 was approved and safe until the aeroplanes started falling from the sky. Time is the ultimate test.

An insurer can discriminate based on statics that young men are more likely to make a claim. However, it is an offence to consider the biological fact that women may not have the same physical capabilities as men.

The Queensland Police Service has the resources to send a dozen officers to assault elderly people in a park but does not have the resources to surveil a known trafficker.

I fully support increasing remuneration for members of legislative assemblies to attract skilled and highly competent candidates. However, presently there is no evidence to demonstrate that such increases have been effective.

What are the government's plans if there are mass long-term side-effects from the presently untested SARS-CoV-2 vaccines?

The prudent response of law enforcement officers to people refusing to comply with SARS-CoV-2 health directions, should be to issue an infringement notice or notice to appear and then have the matter dealt with by a court. The street or a park is not the right forum for law enforcement to dispute legal matters.

Police using heavy-handed tactics such as arresting people for not wearing a mask or failing to comply with a lockdown is further eroding public confidence in the police and the government. Scenes of police wrestling with people over a mask is not helping the police. The matter will proceeds to a court regardless and the police further tarnish their reputation.

I am not surprised the Queensland Government lied about the use of data it collected via its contact tracing application.

The western world has a false belief that the USA protects them from some foe. The only protection the USA offers is protection from its tyranny, oppression and sanctions as long as its allies keep paying. The countries that don't pay for protection are threatened and face punitive action such as the threat of war, sanctions and economic assassinations.

The presumption of innocence until proven guilty, is a theory taught in law schools and wishful thinking in the legal system.

Prisons hold many thousands of innocent people because they spoke to the police. Never speak to the police.

When some people die from a vaccine, it's still safe. When some people die texting while driving, it's dangerous. Hmm...

When God said sex is marriage, and any sex outside marriage is a poor decision, it was not because of some religious ritual. God said it because God knew that people place themselves in compromising situations, and others may exploit the opportunity.

The reason women are not paid less for doing the same job as men is simple. If women were paid less for doing the same work, men would be unemployable.

Employers will not pay more if they can pay less for the same job – the simple fact of business.

The world would be a much better place if leaders were elected for their capability and not popularity.

Can candidates, who represent political parties advocate for the best interests of their electorates?

At what point does quarantine become deprivation or liberty, imprisonment without charge or unlawful arrest? Is not knowing if a person has a virus a crime?

Government intentions to ban Tik-Tok are politically pathetic. It is especially pathetic trying to ban Tik-Tok under the pretence of privacy and security. If privacy and security is an issue, most mobile applications would need to be banned. Social media applications, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and even Pokémon GO, take far more user data than Tik-Tok. The only difference is that Tik-Tok is owned by Chinese people and the others are majority-owned by people from the USA.

Any person or entity can create a currency. They can even make it more valuable than their national currency.

If a person creates a product or service that others need, they can create a new currency as the only accepted form of payment for that product or service.

As the product or service becomes increasingly in demand, it will generate demand for the new currency. People will exchange other currencies for the new currency. Some people may use the newly created form of payment among themselves to the point where it is preferred - thus, how the US dollar retains its value. Otherwise, the US Dollar would be worthless.

In the future, a large corporation that controls many products and services may develop a currency and use it to control people by denying supply to the people that do not conform to the corporation's values.

God is brutally unambiguous. God is especially unambiguous about marriage. Marriage is when a man and a woman engage in sexual intercourse. As true marriage is unwieldy for people, people had to water it down and hence created an optional paper marriage.

Discrimination, racism and police brutality issues have been brewing for a long time and have now reached a boiling point. These issues are the cause of many unnecessary deaths and have devastated many people and communities. Violence stemming from discrimination is a serious issue that requires immediate attention. Therefore, how is changing the brand name of a cheese a priority right now?

Before social media platforms, anyone who wanted to publish on the internet had to set up a website. Since social media platforms saturated the internet, anyone and everyone can create an account and publish. However, for many who are exercising free speech to its limits, they are now being challenged as social media platforms move to limit the content that does not complement their brand, by enforcing strict policies. I expect we will begin to see a move back to people publishing on websites and using social media for what it should be - to drive traffic to a website.

It is interesting that the people that accuse another person of racism attack that person by posting death threats and very insulting comments on the accused social media. How is threatening death and being derogatory to other people anti-racism?

Jesus came to deliver a stern message and paid the ultimate price. People repackaged it, put a nice bow on it, named it Christianity and sold it.

Affirmative action is the greatest catalyst of discrimination and inequality.

Why is the candidate for the United States of America presidency selecting a woman for vice president and not the best person for the job? Selecting a candidate because of gender is the definition of discrimination.

People falsely believe they have rights. The government has the greater right to take away all rights.

When the USA says that its citizens and citizens of other nations using a certain application, device or any other technology is a threat to national security, it does not mean there is an actual threat. What the USA and its agencies mean, is that they don't have surveillance ability on the application, device or whatever the technology.

For example, there is nil threat to the USA from its peopling using Chinese applications or any other Chinese technology. The real complaint the USA has, it can't spy on its citizens and the citizens of other nations through Chinese technology.

The USA and its agencies generally do not have data-sharing agreements with Chinese owned entities, and hence don't have the same access to people's data as they do through USA owned applications and technology.

When the USA does not have control, it perceives it as a threat and will go to any lengths to gain control. This includes extremes from corporate and economic assassination to starting military wars.

Innocent until proven guilty is a lie repeated enough that people believe it.

If true, the accused would have the right to plead innocent. However, that is not true. A person cannot plead innocent in court. Furthermore, the defendant must attend court to defend the charges and challenge the prosecution and its evidence.

Finally, the jury can only find the defendant guilty or not guilty. A not-guilty verdict does not mean the defendant is innocent. A not-guilty verdict is delivered because the prosecution did not meet its burden of proof to convict.

My vocation is my vacation.

Mainly the USA and its people are in a debate about China’s false reporting of SARS-CoV-2 infections and mortality. In the USA, there are reports that mortality is not being reported accurately either. The blame is on China and China is the bad one.

The reality is that the accuracy of mortality reporting is irrelevant as death doesn’t lie. Ultimately people will discover how many have died when the hospitals fail, mortuaries overflow and the population disappears.

The USA can blame China for whatever it likes, but that is not going to restrain the virus and death.

The USA’s answer to every threat is bombing, sanctions and politics. Unfortunately on this occasion, the virus doesn’t have buildings to bomb, trade to sanction or politicians to assassinate. The virus does not read Twitter and doesn’t have a face to shame.

Perhaps it is time to give the arrogance, self-importance and greed a break to save a country from falling into the abyss of irrelevance.

Most people don’t understand what made in China means. Factories in China - which are often western owned and operated - make products to the exact specifications supplied by western vendors. If there is a defect in the specifications, the defect is produced. Chinese factories are not in the business of fixing defects in iPhones. Factories in China make what they are instructed to make, from materials they are instructed to use.

There are many products made in China that are of excellent quality,, such as iPhones, because Apple is prepared to use suitable materials and supplies plans with minimal defects.

Some vendors rush generic, cheap plans and want the most inexpensive product made from the cheapest materials to increase profit.

Many products western vendors make in China for western countries, do not meet Chinese minimum standards and cannot be sold in China.

Every emergency or crisis the world or a nation experiences, governments around the globe use such events to increase their power over the people. With every emergency, the government finds an opportunity to take away some freedom from its citizens. Just as with every other emergency, governments around the world, are working to take away more liberties and mostly rights from citizens during the SARS-CoV-2 crisis.

Incarcerated individuals must have the right and ability to enrol and vote regardless of the length of their sentence. A citizen governed by a government must remain on the electoral roll and retain the right to vote for who governs them.

Demanding a government do what it was established and mandated to do is not socialism.

Non-clinical services in the healthcare system must not be privatised. Privatisation increases risk and costs to patients and tax payers.

In the past, the church ruled and was the government. Now, corporations rule and are the government.

The world needs strong regulation of business and corporations because business and corporations are innately immoral, unethical and corrupt. If corporations are not regulated, their greed will destroy them and the world.

Travel agents are approaching the end. Will they evolve to survive or will they disappear completely?

If it is true that guns don’t kill people, but people kill people. Then perhaps people shouldn't have guns.

Since the creation of religion, Christianity, mega churches & tv evangelists, there is very little left for Satan to do.

In our present society, the tolerant are the most intolerant.

It is easier to win an election through strong leadership and good public policy than by insulting opponents. However, it is easier to insult opponents than being a strong leader and having good public policy.

The conviction of the Australia Cardinal has exposed a flaw in the Australian legal system. The cardinal was convicted based on a single victim’s testimony from nearly decades ago and the stigma that catholic clergy are sex offenders.

God and religion are opposites. The closer a person is to religion, the further away they are from God.

Presently there is sufficient scientific evidence that the global climate is changing. However, there is insufficient evidence humans are the cause or significant contributor.

Regardless of the human impact on the climate, human impact on the environment is indisputable and undisputed. Therefore, focusing the debate on climate change is unnecessary. The focus should be firstly on the environment. Debating climate change takes away the attention from the real issues, and sceptics control the narrative. Not bringing climate into the discussion and only addressing environmental facts such as pollution, deforestation, and extinction eliminate the scepticism.

The current human impact on the environment is unsustainable. Therefore, it requires immediate corrective action. If humans have contributed to climate change, it is most likely due to the human impact on the environment. If this is the case, addressing the current environmental deterioration will help to fix the climate.
