The miserable pittances gained from selling off everything goes into funding Taj Mahal style 'commissions' and other nice jobs for a few old mates, while extending the control of the State over the individual by exercising arbitrary 'rights' of these Star Chambers to impose on any individual at any time without notice.

It also creates inflation..... think it through...

It is no different from Sharia Law in a funk-hole like Iran - there is no requirement for justice, facts are distorted by the ideology and not by reality (think on that), and there is ZERO remorse for the person afflicted without notice by some whinge from some Far Ken loser steeped in the modern way of being perpetually aggrieved by living here.

It is - in reality - a Reign of Terror, and it started with 'feminism' and the way anyone could suddenly, for doing something perfectly normal, be embroiled in some 'complaint' over someone's 'aggrieved feelings' or something ... and that was even before it was weaponised and brought into the fold of 'legislation' to support, sustain and extend it!!!!  And every other piss-hole in the snow ideology followed suit once the ladies showed to way to gain power and control.... but that's where the money goes - not into more cops on the beat, more hospitals, more ambulances .. all into some sweet little earner for yet another loser with a head filled with the madness that poses as modern education.

The Homeland and Gon'Mo are sounding better by the day... and a hell of a lot cheaper... just saying..

Anyone remember the infamous "3 by 3" way back in the Greiner days in NSW (before he sold the roads to himself that is) ..... three cents a litre for three years will fix every road!!!!!!!!!!!

And yet you dick-weeds will believe every word your 'governments' hand out to you as if it's gospel...

Read it and weep - it never produced a result and it never went away:-

The levy was a 3 cents per litre increase in the state's petrol tax, originally intended to be in place for a fixed term of three years to fund road improvements in New South Wales (NSW). Although it was meant to expire in August 1992, the tax was later extended and remained in effect until July 1, 2000, when it was absorbed into the federal government's Goods and Services Tax (GST) system

A saving of 30 minutes is worth 150 bucks.
A 5 dollar toll is the saving of the century


It would be an even bigger saving if you didn't have to pay the tolls to start with.

Why don't you move over to WA? No toll roads here.  Cool

The minumum wage in Oz is 25 an hour.

Are people losers if they earn the minimum wage?


Scoot wants people to pay 6 hrs wages for 30 minute gain.
