i found the fact that a french man, was under police " not sure what" but he took a photo of the wall they put up and they didn't let him go any where after that...
all i can say is that's so OZ, you could vote for johnny and still call G.W our president
how do i put this... i know....if all the share holders in the world died wouldn't it be a better place?
Yeah, I heard some German tourists took a photo of the wall, and were made to delete the photos from their cameras.
Anyone who has super (which is basically everyone who has held a job, now it is mandetory) is a share holder. That's how they make money out of your super, they invest it in the share market.
So basically, if everyone who held shares died, you'd be left with people who've never held a job. At least there would be plenty of drugs!
i guess i'm a tad of a dreamer... actually one of the larger share holders in this country is woolworths, they've actually worked out if stores are holding less days stock on hand, they have more money to play with on the stock market. (i do like it we people from head office explain everything).
I'm not surprised, it's a good way to make more money for themselvs, and their shareholders.
The problem with businesses is that once they start increasing profits by 30% each year, that becomes expected. How else can you do that, other than by reducing your spend, on things like employees, maintenance etc.
It's not good, but human greed has driven things to the way they are. And if Woolworths aren't prepared to do it, there are plenty of others who are.
um, you do know communism and being democratic are two unrelated things right? one is a system of economic management, and the other is a system for deciding who is in power..
During the communism eras in both russia and china, you still got the ability to vote for who would be the 'leader'. I will admit however that they did restrict the people you could vote for, in the same way the current process in america restricts you to a vote between two people for president.
So no, it's not ironic, that it's being said by someone from the communist party. It is however sad that they've put the walls up in sydney, but then again it's also sad what people do in protest against APEC.
You do realise the post was tongue in cheek, right?
I'll write a bit more later about where I drew the comparison from, but many implementations of Communism sought to end democracy as well as capitalism. In fact, Marxism-Leninsim specifically refers to "dictatorship of the proletariat".
However, strictly speaking, it doesn't apply to the fluff and bluster the Australian Communist Party have on their website.
