Good point - and I'd also like to acknowledge the Afghani interpreter who tragically died alongside our Digger overnight - along with his grieving loved ones...

Australian soldier killed in Afghanistan
February 20, 2011 - 11:39AM

An Australian soldier and Afghan interpreter have been killed in Afghanistan overnight. Sad

Defence Force Chief Angus Houston said today that the pair had been shot and despite immediate first aid, could not be saved.

More to come

Lamenting the shift in the Australian psyche, away from the egalitarian ideal of the fair-go - and the rise of short-sighted pollies, who worship the 'Growth Fairy' and seek to divide and conquer!

IM not sure the connection between a pension and a head of govt and why you think they should be the same... And perhaps you should work on your definition of 'democracy' a little more!

What is the connection between a pension and a head of government?
Longweekend58, why do you think people in Egypt and other country rioted.
Mainly because of very unequal distribution in wealth by the rulers of those countries.
Mubarak has been reported as having stacked billions of $ in foreign countries, probably looted from his people; King Farouk did it some 60 years ago.
In the western countries, the rulers cannot get away with such action, so they loot their people in the form of paying themselves as much as they can get away with.
Democracy is in the end, all about wealth, and how it is distributed.

To compare the looting of a national treasury to taking a salary of $275K is idiocy. and your definition of democracy is dead-set wrong. Democracy is about people chooisng their government and having freedoms. NOTHING to do with how wealth is distributed.

Freedom is precious, but of little use when you are hungry and struggling to pay your bills.
Give Australia another 50 years and there might be riots here too.
