No, ofcourse I'm not offended, just being my usual pedantic-old-fart self.Tiger
Quote:The best chance we have for real change is a Green / Labor coalition!

I admire your optimism. However, it is my observation that people will only tolerate a reform government for shotrt periods and most astute politicians are aware of that. Consequently, politicallly made changes at an institutional level are rare.

Liberals tried it with work choices and it cost them government. Labor is trying it with the management of the Murray Darling system,so far with spectacular lack of success.

Australia is one of those countries which always gets the government it deserves and always will as long elections are decided by the greedy bourgeoisie and the stupid working class tories. Same for the US and UK.
