Australia the land of fear.

We in Australia need to face our fear with more self examination and less passing the buck.
It is scientifically well accepted that we humans are not using much of our brain, and going by the latest Australian Government education solution that means the emotional bits as well.
We must do better.
Surely more of us can look deep enough inside to find some feelings.
We are like our government. We are fearful and our fear creates delusional stupidity.
How else could you explain taking social benefit money from the poor as a proposed means of "punishing bad parents" who do not send kids to school?

Our wonderful aboriginal brothers are disadvantaged by our uncaring culture.
They, along with the poor, old, sick or infirm know this about life ....................... No Government has the goolies to take on the fearful greedy. Too powerful, too many of em, and too scared to share.

So we still do not support those we have denied in the past.
We deny them today because we fear the cost of their needs.
Is is really greed behind the fear, and greed is just fear. Fear of loss in this case.
With an open heart and mind the level of our individual needs could be adjusted to "humane". One bed to sleep in, enough for your family to live well, and be prepared to pay the taxes to fix this disgusting situation.
A country with an underclass is a second class country.
