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.

You are officially an idiot. Please move to the nearest totalitarian regime (there are plenty to choose from) and be the only moron to do so.

You clearly have not the slightest idea what democracy is or freedom for that matter. Has it not occured to you that the RICHEST countries on earth are democracies and that that is no accident? Could it even occur to you that the reason for poverty and inequity is predominantly the LACK of freedom and choice?

as a logical point-by-point rebuttal, your posts lacks something. You clearly have zero idea what democracy actually is. It seems you want it to mean 'free stuff' for you and yours.

The mods on here are occasionally better than useless - but not often. they need more mods and shock-horror, mods that are actually online more often than occasionally.

longy I think it should be up to the people that post rather than a moderator who lets face it can take sides if they are labor leaning they are hardly going to see anything wrong with them are they? and vice versa..if we report them then that should be enough.. some of the abuse on here is so pathetic I find its best to ignore they dont like being ignored either.they think they are brilliant..lol

longweekend; this is what the Dictionaries say about Demcracy.

Democracy : The Australian concise Oxford Dictionary.

Definition:a system of governmentby the whole population; a Nation so governed; “a classless and tolerant form of society”

The Chambers Dictionary:

A state of society characterized by recognition of “equality of rights and privileges” for all people, political,social or legal equality.

Plutocracy.
A government by the wealthy, or society governed by the wealthy, a ruling body or class of such people.

Adj. Pluto-democracy, “a wealth dominated Democracy”

The last would be very descriptive of Australia.
