The last I voted FOR a political party was in 1975. (the constitutional crisis) Since that time I have always voted AGAINST the biggest shower of incompetents on offer.
Up until the last election,the biggest shower has always been the Liberals. (conservatives) I honestly couldn't tell which mob was worse,so it was "a pox on both your houses' and I voted independent. so far it's shaping up to be the same for the next election.
I recognise that I live in a capitalist economy.However,I also recognise that big business is amoral, and that society needs to be protected against the worst aspects of laissez faire capitalism.
I worked in Federal Welfare for over 25 years. My position is that welfare is for the needy,not the greedy. ALL payments made under the Social Security Act should be rigorously means tested(especially all payments for children) Perhaps that would help remove the snouts of the greedy middle class from the public trough.
I agree completely with your social views,which I see as rational,pragmatic and just,but not especially radical.
