What's even more astonishing about that is I was one of those people - back in the late 80s (a box of 4 at ENO was Β£12.50 a ticket, loved the SNO - Das Rheingold in 1989 was a gem). So prices now are the cost of two coffees or a shite Australian wine ππ€―

Trump's book really should've been called "The Art of the Lie" because it's a business strategy he's spent a lifetime perfecting. And he's now so good at lying about lying, it's a business model for tech.
I've lost count of those in startups who told me something untrue, then denied it happened

I should add that the reason Albo bagged Pocock is because the independent senator is more closely aligned with the views of the ACTU on taxing gas - the Petroleum Resource Rent Tax (PRRT) on LNG - than the bloke who's like the pope of the actual political party of labour, funded by it. π

π―. Same as Hannah. And to slag off a former Wallabies captain and Australian of the year shows how his leadership is no more than a bonsai of from little things big things grow.

Good.
I understand the problem and have lived beside it. Life would be much nicer without the inconvenience of homelessness.
But this is simply punching down rather than trying to find a solution to a growing problem. Disposing of the few possessions they've gathered is mindless cruelty.

Under Trump, we are seeing a breakdown in US diplomacy and a broader global diplomatic malaise. The collapse of the rules-based international order is as much an operational problem as a structural one. My latest post.

I still go back to the US and UK installing the Shah in the 50s as their puppet autocrat, which led to 1979, the ayatollahs, and the shite everyone's endured for nearly 40 years.

"prior to 1979 we had a good relationship with Iran". Remind me again which nations installed an autocratic client state monarch in the '50s, which led the people to revolt against the repression, corruption and foreign interference of the Shah's regime?

No one could have predicted that the US and Israel were going to bomb Iran and the country would retaliate. This has caught everyone by surprise.

Every time I see Mr $292k+ year bang on about the 45% tax rate (+2% Medicare levy) and how it disincentives the 5-7% of Australians paying it to work harder (you're on $190k+ to be in that tax bracket), I assume he wanted his old job in politics back because he hated paying tax on a better job.
