Common Sense in Australian Government

Ok enough is enough!

Does no one even see what is happening in Australia?

Are we all just sheep?

So the Government says this is the new law... and what... we just accept it because it is easier?

Look at the small business people with the work place reform... how many people had to change the way they do business just to have it changed again... and without compensation for the ones that least could afford the legal costs. so one year we change then we change again... ok sure things are for the better... (or are they?)

Shouldn't the people have have some recorse against the Government for creating rules and law that in reality be silly laws for political gain... and why should those people be allowed to use our tax paying dollars to fight a law (or other silly laws) that they created without our input.

The reason we dont fight these non common sense laws is because the entities involved have access to OUR OWN tax paying resorces... and they just keep draging it out so we cant continue.... ok I now ask you this...

Why dont the people have a say in a people v's Government and we also get the use of tax money for legal costs?... I BET THAT WOULD CHANGE A FEW THINGS !

And dont even get me started on stupid laws that have never been around in the last 100 years but now all of a sudden to prove they are the TOP DOGS they create laws like Bicyle helmets...

Ok yes they are a good idea for people on the road ... (cars go fast) but if you are over 18 years old and you can drink ... dont you think that getting told because your on a cycle path riding around a lake, that "I am sorry sir but you will recieve a $40.00 fine for not wearing a helmet..FFS! what is this place comming to... im 35 years old! I think I am adult enough to decide that I am in a safe enviroment.

Last time i checked you told me i had to vote?... so i am old enough to vote, yet not old enough to decide if i want to ride around a lake without a helmet?...

Now, under 18 yes i agree or even on the road... but if police had spent that 35min booking me for not wearing a helmet (on a lake cycleway) they might have been better used for the Sociaty looking after a bashing or thieft! after all the reason the Government decided on Helmets was "IN THE INTREST OF SAFETY" right?...

I mean what ever happened to just using common sense, have we lost it because the Government tells us what do! I AM NOT A BLOODY ROBOT!

Matenance for children will be my next blog... please feel free to add your comments to this one..
