OT: Current Affairs and Politics

[Gronk]

One thing is sure now, that there has been a pivot towards anything regarding Epstein as being manufactured by the Fake News media and the Democrats.

Whatever comes out now about Trump or not about Trump but about anyone of his mates, it will be deny. witch hunt, fake news etc and waived away.

What would you expect him to wear for a tourist walk up the GWC? I agree he could at least get a polo that fits him. His Mrs looks fine. Why did that twitter merkin put inverted commas around partner?

 

[Gary Gutful]

Didn’t see an issue with what they were wearing.

Honestly couldn't care what anyone wears tbh. He's walking the great wall, hardly appropriate to be in a business suit. At least it's better than little Johnny's wallabies tracksuits.

Looks like that tweet was just the latest in a long line of Liberal dick sucking shit takes from old mate. Check this one out

On further inspection, the guy is quite entertaining. Mad as a cut snake. Resident of Thailand. Possible LU poster. Sounds like a Manly supporter.

Here's his latest dickhead thought of the day...

What even changes when liberal and Labor are in?
I think it's all very subtle. Unlike USA where it's these radical crazy lefties ideas vs these nutty right conservatives.
I'd say the biggest difference is Labor loves to spend on defense. Which is ironic because it's almost against what most lefties core beliefs would be.
Anyhows Albos increased spending in defense 50 billion and that's a good thing.

Australia already spends a huge amount on defence

The debate on defence ignores that Australia already spends more than it should.

It would have been great if Bernie Sanders got in years ago instead of maybe Obama who really was a honey tongued phony.

It's going to be an interesting period in the next 10yrs. Basicaly all the wealth is going to be passed down. The Boomers are dying and will transfer their wealth to off spring.
I imagine this will be the final line that cements capitalism and inequality. Some of us will get millions of dollars handed to us.
Some a few hundred thousand. And others already sitting at the bottom will get nothing.
It will be wild and the gap will become so wide it will be scary.

It may even create a problem where a lot of 50ylds with great skills are going to take gap years/ time off becuase they simply don't need the money. This is going to cause issues

We've got to bring in massive inheritance tax.
You are right, the inequality it creates is unjust.

It's going to be nuts. I look at a heap of friends and some of us will become overnight millionaires and others will be left slugging it out till death.
It doesn't matter how had you work anymore for your future generations. It comes down to the transfer of wealth.
We will become similar to Japan. A low desire society. But with shit loads of crime.

Same as it ever was really. The rich get richer, the poor get the picture. That's why we have the inequality gap we already have now.

Personally I f**king can't wait to be able to afford to not work and take gap years/time off. And it's not going to cause any issues whatsoever - except I guess for my current workplace losing/trying to replace my expertise and experience.

That's how it's always been, some would say. Inequality between old money vs new/aspirational money vs the masses without privilege.

For people concerned about money and financial standing etc, the next generation's best hope is to marry into wealthier families.
