That’s my point. When did Australia become such a sick democracy.

It
We have children in jails and refugees locked up and all our money goes to the top 5%.
They don't have homeless people in China. We use more fossil fuels per capita than anyone in the world and we are a racist country with racist political parties.
Over a million? Don't think so.As if Dutton and Albanese give 2 shits for the Uighurs.it's just a handy tool for their criminal defence spending.

They dont give a shit about them personally no.
They just understand that’s how the chinese treat those who oppose them.

So how do the countries who share our part of the world feel about our sub announcement?
Reckon that's something our media should have put front and centre of its assessment of the deal.
Did a quick run around of the major dudes and here's the verdict:
Malaysia - opposed
Indonesia - opposed but want more details. Currently opposed to allowing nuclear powered vessels in Indonesian waters
Singapore - supports
Japan - Supports
Fiji - supports
Japan - supports
Phillipines - supports
NZ - no comment but reiterates existing policy to not allow nuclear powered subs in NZ waters
Fill in more as you find them.

3 million out of 1.4 billion is a far far lower % than any other major country.They dont give a s**t about them personally no.

There's 20,000 social workers to aid them as well.
Still not good enough reasons to provoke WW3, you can't ram your own dogma down the throats of sovereign nations.

The pollies got their cut from the arms dealers, that's all that matters, who cares if the subs are useless.

The US and UK are laughing, they are saying "do you believe another Morrison has fallen into our laps, how good is this, what else can we sell these f-wits"
You said there was no homeless - i simply corrected that falsehood.

Sadly the politicians are no better informed on a lot the issues they make decisions on.
There's an anti-AUKUS rally on in Melbourne tomorrow starting at the State Library at 1pm.

You said have I ever been to China inferring that homeless people are everywhere.
They are dude.
Every bridge i saw has one or two living under it - they have lots of bridges.
100% this - Australians are being completely fleeced with this deal
"The tragedy is exacerbated by the realisation that the submarines deal – possibly priced at about $368 billion – constitutes the biggest transfer of wealth from Australia to another country in its history. You have to go back to times of colonial exploitation to discover an arrangement so uneven. And ironically, it is the result of Australia pleading for it."

If I'm getting this right. the deal was set in play by the Coalition after they cancelled the French subs contract
If Labor pulled out of the deal, that would be Australia ****ing over France, the US and the UK in the space of two years which would have looked terrible on the world stage
These subs seem to be mostly to appease the US and don't really help much with the defence of our nation. Plus we've angered the Chinese even more who are a major trading partner
If we truly wanted to defend our nation there are cheaper and more effective options available
Is that the gist of it?

Great post.
However, I have wondered what stance Hutt River Province (or Principality of) would take, but seems it no longer exists. Not only are we wiping out species on our continent at a rate of knots, we've also wiped out the only other 'nation' we share this land mass with. Having visited in the days of the rule of Prince Leonard, and met him personally, it is disappointing we no longer have his perspective as a counterbalance to what is disappointingly, an ALP government implementing conservative policy. Oh well, back to sprucing up the fallout shelter.

Missiles would be better. If an invading army was en route to Australia, we could bomb the sh!t out of them as soon as they entered our territorial waters. A small supply of nukes would be good too. Just as a deterrent to other nuclear powers. Sure the likes of China & others could nuke us into oblivion, but if the price they had to pay to do that was to get hit 10 nukes from us, would they be prepared to pay it? I don't think so.
Invading army, why would China want to control Australian cities like Melbourne, Sydney etc ?
