The Australasian Century
May 7^th, 2012 at 9:52am

I am so sick off hearing this rhetoric "Asian Century".

Unless Australia is classed as asian, it is anti Australian in design.

As a Greens supporter, I see Australia with the potential of leading this century. Leading Asia and leading the world.

Meanwhile Labor and Liberal see Australia being the mug of Asia. Only able to react to the expanding economies within Asia.

Where do you stand, Pro Asia or Pro Australia?

No corporate maggots, suckholes and globalists want to rule over us and the world which is why they have opened up our borders, placed crippling sanctions and economic restrictions on us....We cannot be the masters of our own lives while we seek to enslave others, War is not peace, freedom is not slavery, corporate suckholeing is not dignified.

Good way to waste billions of dollars into a blackhole budget isn't it...

If you plan to quote, supply a source and then you will perhaps not spin it to a lie. I understand you think your little leader can lie through his ears, doesn't mean everyone else accepts this lowering of standards.

As for Australia competing in the space race, exploration should be achieved via nano exploration and so not wasting such massive amounts of resources.

They are not short of them.
I went there for the first time last year.
Apart from the most random weather - sunshine to full on halestorm back to sunshine in the space of an hour followed by galeforce winds - it seems to be full of lunatics and brick sh*thouse Maoris.

A very very odd place.

Reminded me of Iceland. Just a remote island where nobody visits and as a result the people just get more and more random stuck out there on their own.

Choice ay bro?

PS - I can see why woody - a gay islander would have had to leave.
They would have belted ten bells of sh*t out of him.

Once again the old party support base reveals themselves as followers, rather leaders.

Australia would think outside of the box, and so circumvent the competition.

As stated prior, nano space exploration could be done at a fraction of the cost of current space programs.
