The richest 3,000 people have $15tn that is $5,000,000,000 each. If you made them all live with just $1bn there would be $12tn to spend. And they wouldn't even notice.

Can you imagine trying to explain this to aliens when they landed on earth? "So, we have these manipulative, addictive machines that empty the bank balances of the poor bastards who are hooked." "And... you just let that happen?" "Worse... we fund government services with it"

The #climate_crisis is a cost-of-living issue for #Australia. My generation will be the first to pay for it Politicians have divorced the issue of #global_heating from soaring prices – #Australians must take bold action at the ballot box www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

How the fuck can we, as a country that possibly respects democracy and the rule of law, deal with the deadhead duo of Trump & Musk? How? Get us out of AUKUS before it properly FUKSUS. @albomp.bsky.social

How come people have forgotten how bad the LNP were at economic management . would be madness to allow them back in given Labor has managed 2 budget surpluses, wages up, unemployment down, inflation down and an interest rate cut & overseas recognition of excellent economic management

Extraordinary arrogance by NACC Commr Brereton to still refuse to resign even after being humiliated by eminent person Geoffrey Nettle KC who overturned NACC’s Robodebt decision after Brereton breached his own Act in an attempt to let his friend Kathryn Campbell off the hook🤬

Not that this will make any difference, but we do all realise the LNP are essentially the same group that fucked Australia for 9 years with Abbott, Turnbull and Morrison as Pm They had 3 fucking PM’s Each one shitter than the last . Dutton will be the worst yet

Dutton's left-overs, left us with 6% inflation & rising. Labor has reduced that to 2.4%& falling. Does anyone believe the Coalition of Cutters could do that while keeping wages growing and unemployment low? Labor have re-written how govts tackle inflation. #auspol www.9news.com.au/finance/inte...

Billionaires should have never been allowed to exist. Nobody needs that much money. Hoarding money while people are starving and in need of medical care in a system designed to keep those people poor and hungry and sick is PLAINLY FUCKING EVIL.

Think solar farms are bad for nature? Think again. Those designed for nature in East Anglia are teeming with birdlife - including threatened species. A new study reveals why. ⤵️ @eastangliabylines.co.uk

For anyone pretending Labor's first term has been a do-nothing government here's the proof you're wrong and you're probably far too reliant on Murodch and other RW media johnmenadue.com/the-governme...
