    Libertarianz

    Any sufficiently advanced libertarian is indistinguishable from an asshole.

    (I cannot claim it, but I cannot resist passing it along. It seems to true of most persuasions really, but especially so if the inhabitants of (tax-free) Liberteria).

    > In fact, I can't see any villians in housing affordability.

    I can - it's those rat bastard mini-developers who take a slightly shabby house on a reasonable section (just right for first home buyers with families), then rip it down, concrete over the lot & build 3 cheap&nasty 'over-60s' units.

    Is it just me, or is anyone else disturbed by the Heineken Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Bier slogan at the end of the TV ad? I guess some advertising stoat slept through that lecture in__ Mid-Twentieth Century Political Messaging__ or whatever it is that marketing weasels study at university.
