gcninja Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 Australia is trying to put a new ban on females with small breasts... why you ask? because: such images could be construed as child pornography, even where those publications comply with American law and keep certification that performers are over 18. I LOL'd hard and i feel bad for you people there in Australia... as one person i know suggested We should take the Great Barrier Reef, and just build it up, until it forms a massive wall around Australia.

Charles Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 That's pretty ridiculous. Some of the comments on that site sound perfectly reasonable. They should just ban everything! Quote
IOSys Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 I guess they miss the good old days were just about anyone living in Australia was either a convict or a prison-guard .. This silly country even protects under-age cartoon-figures against "sexual predators" . Quote
555 Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 I seen on the TV show MANwsers the Aussies pay for female soldier breast implants :) allthough I am not into fake boobs, I like mine real and a handful (Anything more then a handful is a waste right?), as far as child porn who would let their kid under 18 get breast implants to begin with? (did not read the link) Quote
wh1t3 and n3rdy Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 I personally extend a punch in the face to anyone who voted for Kevin Rudd. Quote
shonen Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 I personally extend a punch in the face to anyone who voted for Kevin Rudd. Does that include those who voted for other parties that have preference dealings with the labor party? Then again Tony Abbot is a dead set drop kick who is hell bent on us all wearing chastity belts! WTF banning small breats? Well there goes my Asian porn fetish seeing as the vast majority are lacking in that department. I laughed pretty hard at the black listing of female ejaculation and the reasoning behind it. Maybe the EFA can use that Divinyls song I touch myself as an anthem for their no clean feed campaign. BTW did anyone go to the Australia wide protests that were held today? I was planning on going but couldn't get the day off work. Quote
Netshroud Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 I'm hoping Labor gets kicked out on their rear end in the same fashion as the Liberals did last election. Quote
Rkiver Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 And I thought America was land of the nuts at times. Seems like down under has taken the crown and just run with it. Quote
wh1t3 and n3rdy Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 I'm hoping Labor gets kicked out on their rear end in the same fashion as the Liberals did last election. So who do you want to replace Labor then? I know I am the natural choice but I doubt the international community would endorse my of the policies I would introduce. Quote
Netshroud Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 So who do you want to replace Labor then?

It's all lesser-of-two-evils. Quote
wh1t3 and n3rdy Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Don't tell me you one of those "anarchists"? Quote
Netshroud Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Not at all. Someone needs to run the country, but I dont think any of the candidates are suitable. Quote
shonen Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Not at all. Someone needs to run the country, but I dont think any of the candidates are suitable. I couldn't agree more. For a while now both of the main parties are pretty much identical and it doesn't leave you with a great deal of choice. Especially now days when both parties like to cater for the ultra conservative Christian nutters. Which only really leaves you with the Greens (preference deals with labor), Family first (more Christian nutters), and the Democrats (after the GST I think not). Which leaves you with the sex party or pirate party. I wish the current Government would stop ramming their moral ideologies upon us and get back to the main job at hand and run the bloody country oppose to trying to rule it. lol it always amuses me how when topics like this always turn into the whole this wouldn't happen under the liberal/labor government. Which is utter bullshit each party has tried a similar thing in the past. Quote
wh1t3 and n3rdy Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Australians are also lazy by nature, and need to be led. Anytime there is a wishy washy government in power the country flounders. The country needs a strong government that places it's people first. Time to tighten our belts and sort ourselves out instead of letting more and more people in and add to the multi cultural shit storm that currently exists. Multiculturalism is fantasia bullshit, and does not work in practice. I also cannot stand the governments ham fisted attempts to make policy on things they nothing about, such as the Internet Filter. It wastes our money, teaches dumb criminals to be smarter and is just a big waste of time. If I could, I would declare my house as a legally independent nation. Quote
shonen Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 hahaha True that we are a bunch of lazy bastards. Maybe we should re coin the phrase to Australia the lazy country. I tend to disagree on the Multiculturalism front however. It does work but only with those who come here are wanting to contribute and check their religious/culture baggage at the door. One thing that annoys the shit out of me is that we are suppose to respect their culture. This is all good and well to some extent providing you respect ours and don't force your bullshit upon us. At the end of the day they are the ones that came here. Thanks for the share psychosis, I must have missed that chasser skit and laughed pretty hard. Quote
555 Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Didnt England send all the criminals to Austrailia? content end? Sydney sounds like a nice place to visit. Quote
psydT0ne Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 you'll never find utopia.....Australia is a better country to live in than most and i like being being an Aussie. Quote
wh1t3 and n3rdy Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Apathy, the great Australian past time. As my distaste for people in general increases, I find myself less and less "patriotic". People love Australia, but it's a country that does not have it's own culture and whose society does little more than mimmick other western countries. I realise there is no utopia, and am not so foolish as to wait in hope of things changing for the better. Human nature is just that, and will never change. Quote
shonen Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 Yes Aussies are all a bunch of convict cereal killers that enjoy nothing more than shoving wheet bix up peoples rectums for shits n giggles. =P Your right there nerdy, we do have a bad habbit of stealing other cultures and claiming it as our own (among with athletes and actors). I also hear ya on the distaste for people in general, working retail for a few years will do that to ya. real life really needs a block user option! Quote
Deags Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 time to chime in. Good on the government for filtering the people. Just making a few more "jobs". Lesser of two evil is bullshit. What you should want is you want a liberty(freedom) because if you don't believe in god it means that you want this life to be as good as possible. So don't get distracted by non-issues(global warming, gay marraige, day light savings, republic), so the governments can keep on lowering your quality and and standard of living. I feel it is irresponsible for our generation to simple ignore what our families have fought for and just piss it away because we are suckers for a bit of spin and a good hair cut. I feel government should work as such. If they build the infrastructure they keep it. Fuck off the lazy ass workers and make councils and employees more productive. Increase the power of the person rather than the persons(this includes employers unions!) so productivity can increase. Offer protection to local industry to allow that high standard of living. Government departments should not be always economically rationalised(it's not like they never pay there own wage anyway). They should do the research that business will not! Cut all aboriginal/cultural services, change translation services to learn to speak English. Put queue jumpers last! Fuck off this encouragement of multiculturalism it is flawed and never fucking works. Immigration should be used to control population instead of increase it. Dual citizens should not be allowed to vote on many things such as republic or anything that requires rewriting what is Australia as their interests are not only with this country. Flat tax. Do away with public health and put in place system that will fine or damage those who let people die. Free trade agreements are only to be very specific. Fund most/all schools equally. Legalise drugs. Make it so politicians can only serve so many years. Start 100+ year hardwood projects for the coming shortage of hardwood's. If ombudsman's and commissions fail at their jobs get rid of them as they are of no use! It only be fair they we have a defence force that is worth having. Offer limited tax breaks to couples living together. Offer decent tax breaks to parents and take them away from bad parents. Take away signifgant tax breaks from single parents who have opted for divorce. Get rid of SBS and only fund the ABC. Require all schools to teach the basics and allow parents to opt their kids out of subjects that may hinder their kids ability to learn. Schools which do not teach the basics cannot receive government funding and are not allowed to give high school cert. Schools caught teaching history that is blatantly incorrect such as Australia was never threatened during WW2 get funding CUT! All government funded education after school such as TAFE is to be on the hecs system and not subsidised. Pensions are to be stringently handed out and unemployment benefit is to be paid directly in food/clothing stamps and to billers after 6 months. Roads are to be solely government owned and operated. Police are to serve the people rather than the government. If you don't earn money you don't get to vote. Any leaders caught answering to those who are not citizens of this country are to be thrown out and their name to be put on a big wall in Canberra. Any leaders who seriously threaten this countries sovereignty are to be thrown out and named for history. Government which owns infrastructure has a responsibility to service it and service the people. All religions are to declare anything financial including donations. Religions caught failing to do so will be fined. People contracting for government will have to show they are not lining their pockets with money of tax payers if found to be unproductive the contract null and void. Allow citizens to defend themselves which out risking the lives of others. Anyone living in Australia has a access to phone power and internet(the government may have to subsidise industry to make this so). It is not the job of government to build profitable services like cable networks but rather services like roads and water pipelines. I'll stop there. That's just a list of thoughts. None are explained in detail however i feel it's a good basis on where I'm coming from. Quote
shonen Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 Um education at a diploma level at Tafe has recently changed to a HEX fee structure this year. The only course's that are subsidized by the Government are those that are of a cert 1-4 level. Honestly I think the diploma level of education should remain subsidized by the government seeing as future earning potential for a Tafe student compared to University student has a big difference. Then again I will admit University has higher fee's. Public health care should be a basic right for all citizens, taking it away would push us ever so closer to America. Quote
Deags Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 Public health care should be a basic right for all citizens, taking it away would push us ever so closer to America. I'm sick of paying for public health workers(not all of them but you know that ones i mean, they are in every gov department just "created" jobs) who do fuck all and people who fail to look after their health. It's not like they pay higher fee's because they are dumb as fuck and drinking/smoke/eat theme selves to death. If you suggest a way to make public health fairer and useful let me know. I have private health and it'll remain that way because the public health is such a joke. I feel a fairer system would be make it so people can choose to have insurance or not. If they don't have insurance then they can still retrieve treatment and foot the bill afterwards as a hospital who were to let someone die or refuse to treatment then would be liable and face large fines. That way the government could subsidise important operations for everyone with out the need of unproductive government workers. Why is it the workers have to pay tax and pay for meds when those who don't don't pay tax or for their meds! This system needs to be fair. Too much stuff is riding on the back of workers. Government needs to be as small as possible. Big government is never successful and when it is it doesn't last long before someone abuses it. Quote
shonen Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 While I would agree that not everyone takes care of their own health and some people excessively drink, smoke, eat etc. Most of these people are still tax payers and should be entitled to the same rights as everyone else. Smokes and alcohol have excessive tax's imposed on them and in my opinion a percentage of this should be allocated to the health costs. While I will admit I am smoker I am sure the vast majority of us would pay a little extra if it was guaranteed to go towards the health system. I think the same could be said for those who drink too. The problem with abolishing public health cover is once it is implemented and more people sign up to private you can be assured that your waiting lists are going to get much larger and that nice quick waiting period for private hospitals is sure to go out the window. Not everyone can afford the costs that are associated with health, even if you are working and earning a reasonable amount of money treatments/medication for things such as cancer would force people to mortgage their homes to meet the costs. Then you have the elderly, again most of which who have worked and paid tax all their lives. The pension is no where near enough to cover the costs that are associated with the health risks to the elderly population. While I agree "some" people are nothing more than lazy fucks who exploit the system and gain too many benefits. Government funding for things such as education and health help to prevent/break poverty cycles and help set up a safety net so people who do fall ill don't go receive massive debt with the associated costs.
