Who pays for your free medical care there?
Would it be taxpayers? Like here?
Most of us want to pay our own way.
I personally do, I would feel like a rat bastard if I stole from others to pay my way.
I never did understand the idea that is good to steal from someone and then act all generous by giving it to others.

I served my country in the R.A.N and paid my share in tax to .... cheers big ears ... not stealing unless its a junkie, we don't think like ya'll

Yep, why kill them with a slower bomb when you can do it at supersonic speeds!! I bet if they painted it red it would kill even more civilians from a great distance....

China invaded Vietnam. They invaded Tibet. (And don't tell me Tibet was not a sovereign country. They had a sovereign and speak a foreign language. You have to be a crackpot to follow the Chinese propaganda line on Tibet.)

They must have invaded others. The Great Wall is well inside China. Surely it was on the border at one point.

Will they invade Australia? I doubt it. It's not their style.

But having a decent navy hasn't been their style for hundreds of years either.

I stand corrected .. my friend pointed this out today at the pub ...

It's a much better system than letting people suffer and die because they can't afford to even visit an emergency department let alone a doctor. I find it sickening that people in this world are prepared to stand and watch people suffer because they are poor. It is, quite frankly, nothing short of horrifying.

Personally, I feel great satisfaction at the fact my tax money goes toward helping others. Like most Aussies, we try to look after each other, we don't consider our fellow countrymen to be stealing off us. If they need help, I am happy to give it - and when I need help I know it is always there.

Beats the hell out of leaving your countrymen to die because of lack of a few bits of comparatively worthless paper. THAT is what patriotism and love for your country is all about - not all that other nonsense.

EDIT: Burgo mate, just a heads up, you might want to tone down the language a bit - I am not meaning to be an ass I just don't want to see you get moderated by admin!

Stand Proud ...



after all it's Friday arvo haha f fighting

You forgot rollers and big 8's and the girls who knew how to fix em! Ahhhh those were the days....I miss my vk 5ltr all the time, but seriously I was happy it's gone because it's half the reason were all in this mess, collectively.
I'm happy to change the way I live so we can fix our planet, but stuff me if we're not stopped at every turn and harassed into submission, before most of us can even care about our environment.
Our own local councils have done this for years, just to create jobs for themselves and
OUR local members voted against putting a ceiling on their pay increases....believe that one

There was a girl back in my high school years ('96 Year 12) who used to drive a 120y that was fully painted (with house paint mind you) like a hippy van. Not only that but she had a hole in her exhaust that she never got fixed - you could hear her coming from the next suburb hehe...

How rude!!

too funny!


Maybe that's what it is....?....
maybe we are too happy, maybe we have the ability to either inflame or diffuse and see from another angle, and have a laugh instead ( I love that about the best of us).
I always thought this was a trait all of us (humans) had, obviously I'm deluded or we wouldn't be where we are now.
I want everyone to be able to come here, I want to be able to go everywhere else if I want, and aside from other Australian posters who seem hell bent on shoving it in your face and gloating, which is just not classy either, we try to be welcoming and open and happy and fair
Fair

I'll tell you a funny story.....I'll try keep it short...I'm not very good at that sorry
One lovely night on our front verandah.....
Hubs had too much (of course I had too much too :duh
neighbour had too much (get's pissy all the time and shares his wealth of knowledge with the whole street)
mouthing off occurred
I could see it was going to happen and threatened hubs (reverse psychology/violence is never the answer),
IF he goes next door I'm coming and I'm bringing the lump o 4 be 2, that he conveniently left at the front door for me
(the local teens run amok here, WE don't put up with it, and it created a target on our house, anyhoo :@@
Hubs went anyway...another god love 'im..

He found himself on the bottom of the pile of three of the neighbors....
Now I have NO problem with people having a scrap (if you bloody have to/AND teenagers ) but I have a real problem with unfair fights, it creates bullies.

Softball and cricket is what I played in high school, very well actually, so you can imagine what I did then....
I morphed into the crazy lady with the lump of wood(which came to my arm pit), and the fight finished, one swing.
It was probably the shock and not my batting average though.....

I picked the guy who stepped in to the fair fight.

to say hubs was shocked is an understatement

When we got back home he tried to have the sh!ts with me for stepping in, I gave it back with
If you had controlled yourself it wouldn't have happened!
it would not have
and if he's going to act like a neanderthal I'm coming too! so he better factor THAT into his violent equation...

What Aussie chick is going to sit there and watch her man get belted unfairly???
None I know

Hubs and I had a couple more in seething silence(front verandah), ran out of fags, and I said let's ask the neighbour, yep.

Guess what?!?!
They came over brought their esky, shared their smokes and we all had the best laugh.

I of course (as a good Australian should) supplied ice, panadol and the advice to see a doctor (to the intruder of their fair fight), if his vision went funny, or he had headaches.
