Before you decide to vote Green like a tosser...
« on: August 02, 2010, 01:02:40 PM »

You should have a little read about something called "steady state economics".

And then try to tell me these guys actually deserve to have any power over the direction of government policy at all.

There's a little SMH article which summarises the concept, but by all means do your own research.

The reason BB still exists in politics is due to the fact he can 'cut deals'. It's when you have people in the senate who are too dumb to cut deals that things go horribly wrong.

I decided my vote long ago and never found a reasn to change it yet.

And the SMH is better than the fucking Advertiser.

Besides, you don't have to read it, you can Google that shit. Go on.

Only an economic illiterate could possibly support such a policy. Unfortunately, that includes most people.

The Democrats cut many deals, and you can't exaclty say that things didn't go horribly wrong for them.

Your shallow political insights are endearing. If you were a twelve year old, I'd consider your comments intelligent. As you aren't, I consider your comments to be about the quality one could expect from a dim-witted douchebag.

The simple fact is, the ineptitude of minority parties and independents are exposed when they are forced to make decisions. We've seen it with Harradine. We've seen it with Family First. We've seen it with Xenophon. And we'll see it with the Greens too.

I look forward to them claiming the balance of power, quickly followed by their rapid political demise. :D

Personally, I don't like the Greens at all. I find their whacky radical views just a bit dangerous for real life.

I don't mind the idea of an Environmental Party or some such thing with more moderate views. Wonder if Malcolm Turnbull would be interested...

You clearly don't follow Australian politics. Or at least, can't keep up. The Democrats were awful at doing deals.

Stop calling me God :P

And no, I wouldn't take anything seriously from newspapers in this country.

You can't have an environmental party with moderate views. An environmental party, by it's definition, must put environmental sustainability at the centre of their economic policy. If they don't then they don't meet the definition of an environmental party. And when you put environmental sustainability at the centre of an economic policy, you end up with a very radical and dangerous outcome.

It would make a Communist economy look like a professionally run machine rather than an economic debacle. LOL. That's how bad it actually is.

Sadly, you are getting policy mixed up with politics. That might explain a lot. :roll:

Guess you've forgotten about the GST one then.

How could I forget. What a stuff up that was, and probably a good reason they don't exist in the senate any more.
