What Climate?
A non issue for Australia
NASA is cross with the Australian Government. They cannot believe that we’re closing down the climate unit. Stripping jobs from desperately needed research into the impacts of climate change. The devolution of CSIRO as a research hub into an industry orientated support rusk. To support Australian Industry, always a leader in forward thinkingness. Innovative, dynamic, pushing the envelope.
What is Australian Industry? Hmmm, Australia post, prisons, mining, overseas students, underpaid interns, it’s all of these, and moving forward. What is not Australian business?The Taxpayer!!
But how dare the Yanks put their nose in. There is no climate change. Haven’t they noticed, climate is not part of the narrative in this election. We don’t have a climate problem, the world does. But we’re different. Aways have been. And happy about it.
Industry orientated CSIRO. New Climate Testing facility to be opened in conjunction with the IPA and Minerals and Energy Council.
The Great Barrier Reef is not important. The recently added fifty new endangered species are not important. Like science in general we don’t actually like scientists. We like the idea of indentured workers at four dollars and hour. We like the idea of expanding service industries, toilet cleaner, bum washers and the like, but NOT, and we say this emphatically scientists. Yeah we have an ideas boom, but it’s really like housing, it’s a bubble.
It’s Queensland.
We don’t like clever dicks. Ask George Christiansen, he doesn’t like them either. Tony Abbott, (the first part of the Abbott Turnbull Government) is campaigning with George today, and will make sure that the Great Barrier Reef and coal mining wont make a mention. Moving forward, bugger the environment, and the environment votes green anyway. Coral votes green. Endangered frogs vote green. Trees and all biota not ordained by the Bible, (you guessed it), vote green. Stuff em! Growth and jobs! More mining, real estate kickbacks and big business is what this country stands for. We’re moving forward. And whilst we’re at it the IPA are cranky. They’re cross the feds are cutting back on obscenely funded superannuation kickbacks. There’s no need for an enquiry into banks, they’re fine. As recent dodgy investment loans from China indicate, they’re on top of the job, to borrow money and spend it willy nilly on the real driver of the economy, Real Estate, whilst crucifying the poorest.
‘And besides, the wealthy end of the town don’t go to the pictures, they’d just buy the cinema instead’.
And that’s why the bloke on Q and A will get the toaster. They’ve (green lefty sympathisers) have stumped up twenty thou for a new Toaster. Even then he’ll still be wingeing. He winged about the fact the the tax break for the wealthy, if redirected would allow him and his daughter to see a film together, whilst the impact would be lost on the super rich. Try another one, he’s probably got a plasma screen at home, possible a subscriber to Netflix. And besides, the wealthy end of the town don’t go to the pictures, they’d just buy the cinema instead. Demolish the cinema, put up a block of flats, and negative gear kickback, from you guessed it, the poor bastard who can’t afford a film. The taxpayer. Tax is tricky, someone suggested he wasn’t entitled to a benefit, cos he didn’t work. Too bloody right.
In economic terms he’s labelled a Dud. If economics was like a Greenie, we’d just chop him down, or bulldoze him. It’s called scorched earth. In Queensland it’s called progress. Either way, you can bet George has a bet either way. Climate is for losers, coal and development, and the tax avoidance industry is where the action is. Tax is tricky. Don’t touch it.
But there’s a two word code that makes it simple.
The PM Malcolm Abbott is fond of quoting. ‘Jobs and Growth’.
