Polity: Eleventy billion dollars!, in reply to william blake,
the end of the capitalist banquet,
There's still a few scraps laying about the dining table.
Seems these fuckers have a suction fitting for their orifice.
All the better to hoover up those last scraps -
Polity: Eleventy billion dollars!, in reply to Matthew Hooton,
how a conversation would progress.
Well Im guessing they somehow knew (funny that) there would be a flurry of attack mutts, first up, screaming
“MONEY!” “WHO"S GOING TO PAY?”
Then after that, who knows :-)) -
But far be it for me to give Labour political advice.
Doesnt seem to stop you, that inner voice that says no.
And here I was kidding myself you were one of the more enlightened right commentators.(ii) everyone gets it from aged 18 until they die;
doesnt quite work like that I believe

You usually only need one of those when the lies require stitching together ;-|

I wish Auckland would follow the current London trend of audiophile listening and dancing nights, which often employ the same Klipschorn speakers
Me too.

concussion researcher Doug King
He got blamed by the community cause he was trying to help the victim that died?
I mean FUCK!
Are there pockets of sport lovers out there who are totally deranged?
Or do I just have to put his experience down to an evolutionary fail going back millenia?
And all those centuries of our ancestors trying to instill some ethics into their descendants was a complete waste of time? -
"Mr Key’s honestly held views at that time"
What on earth does that even mean?
He honestly believed he was lying?
He honestly believed he was being victimized by a vast left wing conspiracy headed by Mr Ambrose.
I dont think our PM has held a simple honest... anything... in his mind for a very long time. -
Polity: Global behemoths and tax, in reply to FletcherB,
so they don’t have a legal way to avoid them…
Just as some people needed a god to be good,
so companies need laws to keep them being upstanding contributing patrons of society.
"Maximising returns for shareholders"?
Its a shitty argument -
Hard News: Media Take 2016: the new…, in reply to Ian Dalziel,
the Hoskings love-fest
look out he’s dragged his co-host into whatever!

And I revisited parts of An Inconvenient Truth
the planets just getting warmer ... still -
we’re all committed, in a helpless fashion, to the future.
Time isnt on our side at present. As for your questions...well... short termish seems to me. Our present way of organising ourselves is a rod we have created for our own backs, and its breaking us.
We cant carry on like this squabbling, pushing our multitudinous individual agendas as if they are an end in themselves.
But everyone putting aside their differences and consciously working on altering the course and direction of not only our societies but of our species is just too big an ask, because presently we are incapable of it.
That may change I dont know, but not as long as we are locked into party politics
