Those that support throwing money at the war machine, just for the sake of it ... where were they when the coalition were attacking our ability of soft diplomacy via ABC's asian network?
How come only noisy subs and dud fighters are the only arrow's in the coalition's quill?
Return and lift funding to the ABC and SBS ... and give back the Asian Network to the ABC.
There is a massive arms build u in our art of the world and you want us to invest in a K-Pop radio station instead of advanced weapons systems to protect our country.
How the fkk do you even tie your laces to go to the dole office and get your handout?
Defence is defence ... warmongering is not defence.
By using all means available, including diplomacy, direct and soft, we can have the biggest bang for our bucks.
To devalue diplomacy, shows your lack of understanding behind human behaviour and the economics that underpin our way of life.
To cut spending to organisations like CSIRO. To try and make higher education a luxury item.
So many actions of the coalition to weaken Australia and to save money, so to throw the cash back so to make the military sector fat and lazy.
"the best defence is a good offence". Or are you the last ignoramus not to know that? Why do you think countries dont attack the USA? Because of their defences or because they will get blown to hell if they try?
