This is evidence of corruption on a mammoth scale. Tony Abbott has just started out with a $60,000 scholarship for his daughter. In a just egalitarian society she would not have qualified because of his position.
The NWO has flooded the world with corruption and what has emerged from that is total chaos and war.
You don't have to look further than the Clintons and Tony Blair to understand the system.
The Clinton's left office broke according to them and now they are worth many tens of millions of dollars.
Tony Blair is so busy stuffing his pockets with money he doesn't have time to scratch himself.
All leaders of all nations, including Obama, are setting themselves for the future cash grab.
This money comes from international multinational corporations and the wealthy. You don't have to guess why the former leaders qualified for the bounty. All very well put. However the problem for the rest of us, the 99%, is how to purge this evil from the world. The best I've yet heard is a forthright suggestion from an ex US Marine, who suggests that at the next general elections all Americans should ignore the sitting member, no matter who, and vote against him/her.
This would guarantee a complete purge of their parliamentary representation, and the possibility of a fresh clean re-start. Of course their next move would be to have these new representatives outlaw all lobbyists from the system, as well as corporate financial donors to politicians and/or their parties. One thing's for sure, power and financial cronyism are the greatest cancers in modern society and as such will be nigh impossible to weed out. I don't know the marine, BUT I agree, as shown in the following & numerous other similar posts, over quite some time -perceptions_now wrote on May 17 th, 2014 at 3:13pm: bogarde73 wrote on May 15 th, 2014 at 3:45pm: Well let's talk about core promises and non-core promises. If your core promise is to restore budget stability, which most commentators agree is necessary, there are going to be promises in relation to specific budget sectors that will be difficult to sustain. Agreed? All politicians make & break promises. That is their field of operations, their battleground. Which broken promises cause most casualties doesn't matter as much as who wins the war. I agree, that is pretty much where we are now! AND, IT IS WRONG, DEAD WRONG!
The thing is, we have now arrived at a line in the sand, only to ind that it's "quick Sand", on the other side of the line.
We either pull back & start the WHOLE SYSTEM HEADING IN ANOTHER DIRECTION OR WE ALL SINK INTO THE ABYSS!
Perhaps, ALL POLITICIANS should borrow a thought from the Law, which says - I WILL TELL THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH & NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH! And, put it into action? Either that or we will have to take our own action, BY VOTING OUT EVERY INCUMBENT, UNTIL THE POLITICIANS FINALLY CHANGE COURSE???
