Reply to Mr. Ben Eltham: Part I, brief introductory comments

It is in three parts. This part is per way of introductory comments to clear the air on a disagreement. The second part responds to the main economics points raised Mr. Eltham. The third part is summary remarks, one foreshadowed shortly below.

Mr. Eltham has written a courteous reply to,

Right-wing think tanks the toast of the Left

“In leftist rag,The New Matilda, Ben Eltham subjected Des Moore’s and Professor Sinclair Davidson’s efforts to careful analysis. Ben Eltham simply threw some of their nonsense back at them. Neither answered, again. Eltham’s articles could convince readers who are unsure whether the free market case is wrong, immoral and destructive. It degenerates. If Eltham is an economist, it is a well concealed secret. (1)….”

I retun Mr. Eltham’s generosity in this two part article.

Something in his remarks is suggestive. We shall come to this after addressing his central points,  but here, we shall say, I thank Mr. Eltham for his willingness to engage in open exchange. This is, to say the least, quite in contrast to what is called the “Right”, which is a narrow clique only.

It is assumed that this clique is identical with genuine Liberals and their nostrums with genuine free market economics. The Right has asserted a death grip over the Liberal Party. They have, through Michael Kroger, secured total control over the Victorian Division. They have reduced the Liberal Party and its forums to a platform for themselves.

Thus, before public contest, they have eradicated all debate and open exchange within the Party. They control and direct advice on all grave matters. It is why the genuine free market case has never been heard in public, and put in debate against other positions . Their destructive antics and  travesty of an ‘economic’ case” for free labour markets is only one of the myriads of consequences of this. Now they are doing it to the fight against carbon taxes.

Mr. Eltham gently chided,

“The tone of your post. Can I respectfully suggest that while insulting language might be fun to write…”

Anger drives it. The above answers, why the anger. They play games with matters that have grave impact for all, as Mr. Eltham you would agree, going on your unmistakable concerns, such as the abuse of pensioners, and the unemployed.

Genuine free market economists are not dogmatists and cultists, “Believe/trust me” (or else). They put sound theory and reasoning with evidence and say, test it for yourselves and, in debate, contrast it to, say, Keynesians. Importantly, as Mr. Eltham appreciates, voters must be convinced. Ineptitude and feebleness can destroy not a sound, therefore moral case. It discredits them in the eyes of all, leaving intact assumptions that are perilous. A carbon tax, which is what the ETS is, is one such instance.

The Right is not merely discrediting the fight against carbon tax destruction day. There is information indicating that they are sabotaging it. Though this might seem exaggerated and over the top, it isn’t. We shall put why not in another item.

Mr. Eltham, that you could eviscerate Sinclair Davidson over the Laffer curve is only a reflection of his incompetence. Note also, the Right is devoid of capital theory, as Professor Sinclair Davidson typifies.

It is not merely a matter of theory and debate. Vital principles of tremendous impact are at stake. Error in these have appalling consequences of great magnitude for the lives of not a few but millions of Australians. I note your empathy for the modest man. This empathy stamps all genuine free market economists, and they are also deeply concerned for fine values – much of their ‘warfare’ is given to defending them.

There is a real ‘war’ occurring in Australia. The hard Left are determined and implacable. Debate and exchange in this is not a pleasant turning over of propositions.

It is a deadly fight and it is brutal. The Left waste no opportunity in dealing out abuse of not only opposed positions, but also of those who propound them. They do it inside Parliament too; an instance will be related this week because it happens to be very important in the fight against carbon taxes.

Exchanging blows with the hard left does not disturb me, nor dealing them out against the Right. Blood sport is a joy. To engage in open, public debate, you cannot be squeamish, and afraid of receiving blows. You must learn to love blood sport.

Here is one more reason for anger against the Right. In discrediting good causes, they smear and defame genuine Liberals who can fight to discredit them. They have done so even on this site! They have even smeared the reputations of Dr. Frank Shostak and Mr. Jackson of Brookesnews on this site too! They continue to do this, mostly not out in the open, directly to Mr. Jackson. Oh no, not this lot of gutless bastards. There you are Mr. Eltham, when I dish out abuse, I do it coming at the target from the front, out in the open on this site.

Importantly, I don’t simply pour it on, I ground it in argument – the hard left appreciates this and how effective it is, it is why they do it. It is something the Right never learns, but they are so feeble it would come as a surprise anything greater than amoebas dwell inside their craniums.

Mr. Eltham, it is wrong to spare sensitivities in debating fights against the hard Left. It is also wrong to do so with the Right. I noted, by the way, your jolly good barb against Professor Sinclair Davidson. You are welcome, but one word of advice:

On economics, it is important to understand what the case is for a given matter, and to work within one’s limits. Otherwise, what can happen is exactly what I did in that first item. In skewering Davidson I skewered you too, and did so because I saw the danger in what you wrote. It could not be left unchallenged and it had to done, as unpleasant as it seems, with ferocity. There is no other way, as unpleasant as this might seem. The hard Left knows this, this is why they do it.

Davidson and the rest are afraid of hard Left economists such as Professor Quiggin and Professor Legge. Each time the likes of Legge and Quiggin hit any of the Right, the target runs away and the rest crawl on the blogs sites of Quiggin and the others saying, “Please, please Mr. Quiggin, nice Mr. Quiggin, good Mr. Quiggin, “don’t hit us too”. It is hilarious reading them on Quiggin’s site. Quiggin’s rubber balls.

Pathetic. Within my limits, I enjoy attacking Legge and Quiggin. I have not done so for some time because of intervening matters. Also, Bob Brown and Peter Garrett. In an item this week, I will be attacking Greg Combet and Doug Cameron for what they support.

Yah, Greg Combet and Doug Cameron, I’m going to do what those occupying precious Liberal seats cannot do and, besides, even if they could they are too gutless to do it. To foreshadow, these two are, unlike in Parliament, not candid at all with ordinary union members on what they are about to do them. Funny that. Patriotic unionists should take note of it.

Finally, in view of your generous, courteous reply, let me say, so long as it is grounded in argument, I’ll take abuse. If, Mr. Eltham, you wish to call me bastard and so forth, I won’t censor it. Why should I. I dish it out, and I can take it.

I thank Mr. Eltham for his willingness to do what the Right will never do, cannot do, and are too gutless and venal to do. Debate. The next item will be a forthright reply to his economics points, and, there will be no abuse, it will be strictly on the points. I extend a generous arm to Mr. Eltham.

Yes, Des Moore, Ray Evans, John Roskam, Ken Phillips, Alan Moran, Michael Kroger, Greg Lindsay and his CIS, the rest of the inmates at IPA and HR Nicholls Society, the only thing limiting laying out evidence by the truckloads is writing and editing time. But, it will be rolled out, showing how much damage they cause.

Surprise Kevin Ruddy Surprise.

Top End food bowl ruled out by Rudd government taskforce, The Australian (8/2/10)

The new order of Australia, States and Federal, Komissars and “Leadahs” - Left and Right. The Right are responsible for bringing this about. The Left would have been smashed ages ago but for the Right. Oh, and readers, we will be posting more items on Vic. Crime Inc. tomorrow, viz the STO, and also how the Right used a backdoor route to being imposing capital destruction through carbon taxes, RECs. Had intended posting them today, but the item below was more pressing, noting that thug, Malcolm Turnbull, crossed the floor to support the carbon tax euphemistically called ETS. All rather gername to this indeed.

No dams aroundAustralia. No agriculture, no production in anything. Welcome to the emerging nightmare the Left hold as the ideal and moral condition for all. Just ‘Deah Leadahs’ and Kommissars. In view of this, what it means, coercion and the overthrow, the complete overthrow of inalienable rights and the complete destruction of capital, it is time to brush up again on what Socialist paradises are really like.

Thank You, Glenn Beck, for Exposing Communism’s Evils

“My family’s nightmarish experience in the Soviet Union was followed by a providential escape from totalitarian hell. We were among the lucky ones, the ones who got away. The United States gave us a safe and protected home — a home of unbelievable material well-being (in comparison to Soviet starvation) and human liberty. I will never forget the awe I felt experiencing my first taste of freedom….

Both of my grandfathers were exterminated by Stalinist terror. Both of my parents, Yuri and Marina Glazov, were dissidents in the former Soviet Union. They risked their lives for freedom;

Now try to imagine me sitting in the company of left-wing “intellectuals” in the West who think they are oppressed… one radical feminist… lecturing me sternly about how women in the West are oppressed because they wear bikinis on beaches… she explained to me that this represented the way capitalism objectifies women… decapitates them as human beings. I remember asking her what she thought of female genital mutilation and honor killings in the Muslim world.Another colleague of mine… once complained to me about how we are being “attacked” by Pepsi commercials….“the capitalist machinery practices the politics of exclusion. By trying to pretend it offers us choice, it actually negates choice.”

My mom’s father was executed by the Soviet secret police. He did not have the luxury of being oppressed by Pepsi commercials.

“The tortures included laying a man naked on a freezing cement floor, forcing his legs apart, and then an interrogator stepping on his testicles…

“As a very young boy, I learned that these intellectuals were “leftists.” I remember witnessing how they tried to prevent my parents from drawing attention to communism’s mass crimes and to the brave souls who were fighting for freedom…

“… we encountered a strange species: intellectuals in the universities who reviled my parents for the story they had to tell. For the first time in their lives, my father and mother confronted an intelligentsia that was hostile to them. Back in Russia, dissident intellectuals risked their lives when they pronounced one word of truth about the horrible history (and reality) of their country under communist rule. In America, most of the intellectuals who surrounded us scoffed at the importance of real intellectual freedom…”

Prepare: The Revolutionary Holocaust

“A groundbreaking hour long special where Glenn Beck takes us back in time to examine the roots of socialism and communism and the evil that followed. We all know about the horrors of the holocaust where the pure evil Hitler inspired claimed the lives of millions of innocent people. But most do not know about the millions upon millions of lives lost in a different genocide of the Ukrainian people under the Stalin regime. This special also takes a look behind the iconic fashion symbol of Che Guevara showing that the myth doesn’t tell the story of the man who was a blood thirsty killer. We meet a family who saw first hand what a monster the man was. They know the cost of communism and you will too when you hear their story, and who can forget about Mao Zedong? A leader responsible for 70-million deaths during his reign. All communist. All killers. We will show you things you’ve never seen but need to.”

Damian Kolody, Filmmaker: He is also working on compiling a video archive documenting eyewitness testimony from the few survivors left of the 1933 Famine in Ukraine, which he hopes will serve in educating the public about this tragedy.

And, on the above link, what a black irony this is:

Reaction to the film, The Soviet Story, in Latvia

“BEING burnt in effigy on the streets of Moscow by nationalist hoodlums must count as a kind of Oscar if you are a Latvian filmmaker whose aim is to expose modern Russia’s blindness to the criminal history of the Soviet Union. The ire of Young Russia’s protest outside the Latvian embassy this week was directed at Edvins Snore, whose film “Soviet Story” is the most powerful antidote yet to the sanitisation of the past.” -THE ECONOMIST

Open Letter to Cardinal Archbishop George Pell

If the Cardinal Archbishop of Australia, George Pell, has any nerve, he will excommunicate both Rudd and Abbott, condemn any of other denominations fast and broadcast the reasons so fast the bastards wouldn’t know where to hide.

George, you know me. Good. Well, George, I’m telling you, they are not Catholics and Christians, they are anti-Christians. George, you are an ignoramus in economics. The Archbishops and Bishops are no damned better. Some are bloody worse. It’s too late for you on this score, but you are not, consequently, armed to face what you will have to face as the Pastor to Australians.

You will have to pastor to men and women and their families, whose freedom has been usurped entire. And, immiserated into the depths of Hell. This is what is coming George. Suffering brings no one any closer to Christ and Trinity. To the contrary, it can turn Saints too into the worst.

The Left and the Right, George, if they get away with their vile garbage (it isn’t free market economics and common law George) you will be faced with something you will wish you were never confronted with before. You will have no answer for the walking dead. What, honestly, will you be able to say to them? Too bloody right George.

George, what course do you really have but to deal forthrightly, as Cardinal Archbishop, with those rotten common bastards. And, George, be sure of it, the hard left get away with what this push is all about and the Church will be trampled on anyway. You don’t protect anything under a vicious ‘government’, not a thing George.

Right-wing think tanks the toast of the Left

In leftist rag,The New Matilda, Ben Eltham subjected Des Moore’s and Professor Sinclair Davidson’s efforts to careful analysis. Ben Eltham simply threw some of their nonsense back at them. Neither answered, again. Eltham’s articles could convince readers who are unsure whether the free market case is wrong, immoral and destructive. It degenerates. If Eltham is an economist, it is a well concealed secret. (1)

Pensions

Eltham certainly has a point.

The reason given for retention of the WWII war tax, PAYE, was to ensure all Australians had a retirement income. Politicians have since used it for buying toys and votes. So, naturally, they had to cut pensions by imposing ‘means tests’ (whatever that callous insult means), RBA’s monetary poison lopping more off and, as uncle Tony Abbot says, granting benefactions - unobservable increases – even pensioners didn’t spot the last one!

Those lucky enough to get a pension, either:

1) Go without main meals. Many don’t use life preservers, eg. air-conditioning. Some stay in bed all day shivering in winter, and starving, because they bloody well can’t afford to look after themselves.

2) Those able to, shove off to what they assumed they’d finished with, hard work. They “pension sacrifice”, earning back the “sacrifice” and then some more to afford rent, power and food. Thrilling, isn’t it?

What do they get from from the CIS, IPA and Tony Abbott ? “The little lazy ingrates lazing about in bed all day can jolly well go out and work until they drop dead.” (2)

Am I missing something? The politicians have broken the oath sworn obligation. The CIS and IPA say it is ‘economic theory’, it is principled to starve them back into work after 60 and flog them to death.

The CIS, IPA, Tony Abbott, Rudd, Swann, Dr. Ken Henry also believe it is fine to do in pensioners, who have worked damned hard all their lives and been taxed to the eyeballs. Rudd, Swann and Henry want to do this to those building their own nest eggs too - I expect to hear the Right say, “Foine, foine, foine”.

It’s moral. No fraud involved. They are irked only by the little shriveled up sods who won’t co-operate.

Eltham didn’t mention many leftists mates, who enough like the Rudds got wealthy from pseudo-businesses and psuedo-charities (The Wilderness Society for one), are no damned better. Yet, Eltham has a point.

It’s OK for the left to immiserate millions and abuse pensioners. It’s another matter when the Right do it. It is despicable. This alone has driven many to the ALP. There are readers who have queried in emails the claim the Right is the reason for the hard Left’s “success”.

Eltham, though, isn’t honest. There is “middle class welfare” doled out in billions of dollars. Local Councils and States’ and Federal Cabinets have raised ‘armies’ of ‘careerists’ and Kommissars who are not public servants. They are an insult to public servants (this is genuinely meant). On top of this, of course, there are more of these types such as legalists (not common law lawyers) making heaps out of enforcing decrees and another special mention must go to:

IPA and CIS, collecting off hapless shareholders thanks to witless directors and executives. Ron Manners, besides also funding the CIS and IPA, has encouraged more of these useless dumbkopfs through his Mannkal Foundation. All you bought, Ron Manners, is duds. Are you daft, or just in love with the self-PR photo shoots?

Professor Sinclair Davidson’s epic journey – discovery of the Laffer curve, still trying

Eltham claims “Oz” is one of the lowest taxed countries in the world. What is that supposed to mean (including if it were the opposite)? Here we are into capital theory. Eltham is equal to the Right, which shows up in Parliament; the Right put the factor into, the cringe-factor.

It is fun reminding Professor Sinclair Davidson, RMIT’s in-house amusement arcade and IPA’s gun, how feeble he really is. It did seem, though, the Left were gassed out on Quiggin’s ‘treatment’ of “Sinker’s” efforts on the Laffer curve. Wrong!

Eltham’s treatment of company taxation is asinine but it is as good as anything Davidson and the rest of the CIS and IPA have produced. Eltham finishes with a  searing conclusion, ‘if you can stomach it, read him’. But, Eltham has crossed from cautious barbs into economics.

John F. Kennedy faced a crisis. His administration was facing falling tax revenues and he wanted to spend, and then there was the Vietnam War to fund too. The point of the Laffer curve was to show the only way out of recession and for growth is savings accumulation and it meant cutting the tax rate. Jackson demonstrated in Brookesnews, skewering Quiggin in the process, the truth of this for the Ronald Reagan and George Bush tax cuts. (3)

As surprising as it is to many on the Right also, many entrepreneurs in Australia are patriots and considerate of pensioners too. They don’t begrudge paying tax to meet these two obligations at all. Many I’ve chatted with are aghast at the treatment of both by Coalition and ALP Cabinets.

What is entirely false in Eltham’s statement is his misrepresentation of company taxes. Those which destroy capital and stop capital accumulation. It’s evident that it hasn’t occurred to Eltham, and neither to Rudd, Swann, Abbott, and the ‘think tank’ “clowns”, the only way Cabinet and Parliament can continue to meet those obligations is if production is so great that they can be supported out of earnings. If there is expansion in  government consumption and increases in payments there must be capital accumulation or something can give way, the whole “blimming lot”. Let’s quote Franz Machlup:

Austria was successful in pushing through policies which are popular all over the world. Austria has most impressive records in five lines: she increased public expenditures, she increased wages, she increased social benefits, she increased bank credits, she increased consumption. After all those achievements she was on the verge of ruin. (Fritz Machlup, The Consumption of Capital in Austria, Review of Economic Statistics, II, 1935, p. 19).  (4)

Contrary to Eltham, companies have been writing off investments in Australia over the last three decades, and it hasn’t ceased, because of taxes and regulation. Anyone who can write: company tax and regulatory burdens are light in the face of so much hard evidence is either a liar or a complete and slightly deranged moron. Which are you Eltham?

What of firms that cannot set up overseas? They go down, permanently. This is before the impact of RBA’s poison. Then there is the matter of an over-valued dollar that might have done great damage to Australia’s production structure, Yes, little Elthy, it is a nasty tax too. Oh, try telling investors and employees the contrary, and take Des Moore, Davidson, Ray Evans, Chris Berg and Greg Lindsay. A united presentation to mere oafs is “strength through joy”. I’ll book a ringside seat - just love blood sports.

ETS

Eltham mocks warnings over the impact of ETS as spooky bed time stories for children. The CIS said the same thing. The Right and Left depict it as an income tax that can be compensated for with transfers: PAYE is a pay cut, so is carbon taxation. The Right in Parliament have not departed the ‘group think’. All in all, suspicions that it might be OK are left intact. More to the point, this stupidity will see Rudd ram down the ETS this session of Parliament.

How interesting. The New Matilda is so focused on misleading its readers it peddles the lie that there is nothing wrong with an ETS. One thing is clear, it hasn’t registered in the skulls of Eltham and his welfare-ist mates that they too will be wiped out. After all, Eltham:

ETS: capital tax; 1st aim - destroy efficient coal power; the rest follows. No production =  not a zac for fifth columnists either.

(Sorry readers, but as the Right, this crew need it spelled out for them in big crayons.)

Is the rag a void in quality control too?  What research? No fact checking? Either they are deliberately lying, or thick, or IQ challenged and lying.

If the Right were only lost at sea in a fog, who’d give a damn?

The rotten thing is, they cast their dense fog over all Australians, discrediting the thoroughly sound and therefore highly moral free market cause and this is what Eltham’s is attacking without having to attempt a rebuttal. Leftists have one thing right:

The Right hand them opportunities to attack free markets without fearing savage, devastating reprisals from the dim-witted, bungling fools.

This reflects the total failure of our right to deal with this issue, and why. They are a bunch of lazy, spiteful and jealous incompetents. Eltham is a lucky guy. He has faced spineless economic illiterates only. Oh, I’m sorry, Elthy, your and your rag’s luck just ran out.

In the mean-time, Eltham, since you and your pals at the rag fancy yourselves as really crash-hot on the matter, why don’t you go for some-one really worth the effort. Just google carbon taxes, Brookesnews, and try and rebut the analysis and demolition of carbon taxes from capital theory. According to you, it’s a shoe-in. Good luck. I await eagerly your sterling demolition.

Yes, Sir, Right-wing think tanks are the toast of the Left, who don’t bother asking whether they take it charcoal burning or just crispy black fried. How inconsiderate.

Footnotes

(1) The Art of Taxation, By Ben Eltham, The New Matilda

The Myth of “Carbon Leakage”, By Ben Eltham- It isn’t ‘leakage’ Elthy, whatever that is supposed to mean. As for “myth’, compare Ray Evans, “It’s all a fantasy”. Who is channelling whom?!

(2)Tony Abbott wrote the position in his manifesto for his central planning grand plan, Battlelines, saying the pension should not be available until 72 years of age. yesterday, on radio, he was trying to extricate himself:

a) “It’s only an idea in the book.” Come again, Tony? This, you yourself declared it, is the ‘thinking man’s book even the man in the street can engage with intellectually’.

b) “It’s not Party policy”. Come again, Tony? Let’s see, you are a Liberal, and now leader of the Liberal Party. You, in 2000 as a member of Cabinet, were also responsible for RECs. RECs is fraud with knobs on. Readers, we have one of a number of items to post today, and many, many more this week. RECs is one of them.

You don’t have a clue about markets, you haven’t even worked in them in firms. You dont’ have a clue about capital. You don’t have a clue as to what you wrote, central planning, but what you wrote you wrote seriously. This is your platform. It could be Hunt’s and Turnbull’s too. Perhaps they plagiarise each other - paragraph, chapter and the whole damned book.

Now what could be going on? I know, the Henry tax report, which has as one of the policies to compel many to work until they drop dead, and to plunder super funds. Abbott and the rest, occupying what are Liberal Party seats, are rubbing their hands with glee. ALP does the dirty work, they collect, is the only inference because the Right, including Peter Costello, have swindled Australians so many times by this very tactic. I’ll withdraw the charge, if wrong. Right now, it looks dead accurate to me.

Unprincipled and oily are only two adjectives that leap before the eyeballs. Why they should, I don’t have a clue. So I have typed them in just in case they mean something.

3) To spell out it out for Professor Sinclair Davidson: It was a device for Kennedy and any President and Prime Minister to use to get past all consuming, all taxing ministers and bureaucrats tax cuts and get off the back of capital. A means of getting through what is a cornerstone of Austrian capital theory:

- Only savings drive growth

- Only savings drags people out of recession

But with the appeal edge: “Thus, Mr. President, you will find tax revenues increasing because production is greater and increasing.”

How clever is that, eh, and yet Professor Sinclair “Sinkers and Sunk” Davidson can’t get a grip.

(4) Jackson’s articles on President Barak Obama’s  ‘economic policies’ illuminate Prime Minister Rudd’s and States’  Premiers’ policies rather well. In this article, as an example, Jackson uses the quote with deadly accurate force:

Will a tidal wave of red ink sink the American economy? Brookesnews

Bob Brown supports Narcotics King Chavez & terrorists. The hard Left’s Front & their totalitarian manifesto

Second reply to “Sally”. Sally took exception to the item on what recent developments within the “Wilderness Society” actually discloses. She put a mighty case in comments, ‘conspiracy theory’ and ‘drivel’. In reply, in comments, the invitation to write an article rebutting the claims, including the claims set out in the linked article on the hard Left fronts, is generously, unstintingly extended to “Sally”.

If she does send an article, it will be published uncensored, unabridged, uncut, un-edited, un-expurgated. As any reader will agree, it’s a fair offer given generously. It’s more than can be said of the likes of:

- Greg Lindsay of CIS.

- David and Rob Kemp, Michael Kroger, and their juvenile pansies “patsies” John Roskam and their IPA Review editor Chris Berg.

- Des Moore and Ray Evans, of the HR Nicholls Society.

The day these two clowns, Des Moore and Ray Evans (and Greg Lindsay and the rest at CIS & IPA) confess the truth that they won’t give genuine Liberals oxygen in their HR Nicholls Society online magazine stuffed with classics written by them and their pals on labour markets, much less publish fine genuine free market economists Mr. Gerard Jackson and Dr. Frank Shostak, is the day I eat my panama hat and, with carbon taxes courtesy of Kevin Rudd and Tony Abbott, well, I fancy I will be snacking on it as it is.

In fact, the likes of Moore and Evans are so busy, as many more sources are telling me, smearing Jackson, they don’t have time to publish alternative, genuine Liberal sources. What a “bummer”. Their whole, hard slogging year cranking a Turing machine, as it is also for their mates in the IPA and CIS, is so, so demanding they are too bug.rd to handle any more material. Which brings me to Professor Keith Windschuttle.

Professor Keith Windschuttle, no doubt, is worn out running Quadrant Magazine as a PR platform for Professor Sinclair “Sinkers and Sunk” Davidson, Ray Evans, and Des Moore. No man on earth can find the energy to identify genuine free market warriors after a day and every day like that, interrupted by lunch. What a “bummer”.

The Australian Greens is a treacherous hard Left front. Bob Brown confessed all in a Senate speech in 2008. For now, articles already written on it will not be linked and no new necessary analysis put. I have no wish to influence reader’s at all and neither to commit faults that Sally so eloquently put as concerns. They are all for the next two items on this.

The entire manifesto for the hard Left’s front, the Greens, as read in the Senate and into Hansard of May 2008, is reproduced in “Continued” uncensored, unabridged, uncut, unedited, unexpurgated, entire, whole, unvarnished, intact and perfect. Jeepers, and there are those who call me a mean bastard! I’m wounded -aargh, dribbles in death throw - throwing down a tinny is a death throw - the beer runs out.

The honest, unvarnished truth straight from the diseased Left’s Greens and Wilderness Fronts, through their parrot, Bob Brown:

(Continued)

An explanation to readers

I realised in posting yesterday,Liberal Party News: Professor Plimer demonstrates scientifically what everyone knows Kevin Rudd and Greg Hunt are the length is rather problematic. As far as I am aware, the evidence has not been unified in systematic treatment, let alone available online. The listed evidence is only a thin slice of the material. (1)

Contrary to the lies spun by the hard left, and charlatans perpetrating fraud in the name of science, and politicians using the lies as an excuse to ruin Australians and Australia, climate shifts are simply natural phenomena. In the ancient world, there were no free markets nor the capital to adjust and adapt to climate shifts. It was no mere disaster that period C13th BC to 10thBC. The sheer horror of what unfolded, and of what people did to each other was the consequence.

Since not the “industrial revolution’, but the capital revolution, the only way it can occur, the horror, again is if man deliberately causes. We actually have to look at what the communists regimes did to the Kulaks of Russia and so many millions of Chinese, and the savagery into which they sank, because all that remained was to somehow survive. It is known that inside North Korea, things incomprehensibly horrifying are committed .

The plight of the Kulaks and modest Chinese under Stalin and Mao gives a sense of scale. Yet, it was not a part of it, it was the entire world of the the Ancient Near East sunk in unimaginable horror. If not butchered enmasse by others, villages perished from starvation enmasse and if this didn’t happen, they wiped each other out.

Ladies and gentlemen, destroying capital with carbon means real horror as ‘normal’ daily life is not simply a distinct possibility. It is highly probable that it will be ‘normal’. Certainly, many in the West have no inkling of what is in store, or they wouldn’t be patiently wearing the lies and the rubbish con-men and politicians and bureaucrats  and Greg Lindsay and his CIS are spewing out daily. The only other people who have more than an inkling of what is possible are Jews who survived the horrors they were subjected to.

Distinguished Old Testament Professor Claus Westermann SJ served in WWII as a Wehrmacht Officer. He remarked to this effect:

‘In POW camp, no-one was nice and decent anymore. Not even the simplest of decencies, to say thank-you, was ever said. There were no more manners. We were all rude to each other.To say thank-you and mean it, no man did. We were all too busy trying to survive, each man trying to hold himself together. It was ugly, we were ugly to each other.’

Nothing like what Kulaks and Jews were subjected to. A fine scholar who soldiered saw a degeneration in the conduct of his comrades and in himself.

We know carbon taxes means wiping out capital. What we don’t have the  foggiest about is what will follow it.

What was outlined in rough form for that grim period in the ancient history of the Middle East is highly likely to happen, but not due to climate,  That’s why I wrote it the way I did, and so it had to be grounded in evidence (it is a cumulative case), with some citation of documentary evidence to ram home what an unimaginable hell on earth the age was.

I assumed readers might find some of the cited material interesting and broke it into sections so it didn’t need to be read all at once. Ah, my mistake. Apologies.

It is highly likely to happen, but not due to climate. What is involved points in no other direction than a plunging of Australians into a darkness such many would sooner seek death.

It will be entirely due to the politicians and the diseased Left who have been given free reign thanks to the gutless, unprincipled, ignorant, illiterate Right. Yet, it bears comparison with totalitarian regimes, for it can only be perpetrated through nothing less than totalitarianism. It is where Rudd is heading. It is where Abbott is heading too, though he is completely oblivious to it.

So, if I “bored the socks off” readers yesterday, forgive me but, to repeat, it was written that way because of the above point.

Hard Left Front exposes themselves by shooting themselves in the head

This has been brewing for some time. Happily, a Leftist site run by, as a matter of fact, patriots whose biggest problems is economics. Anyway, they hate the treacherous Left as much as any genuine Liberal does. Vex News save time, they having summed up some of the essentials.

IN THE WILDERNESS: Taxpayer backed green group milks millions while hiding the darkness within

Yes, precisely what has been laid out here consistently, the cult of environmentalism is merely a cloak which the hard Left is using to push its aims. As pointed repeatedly, those in the “Green” fronts of the treacherous Left are wealthy, middle class cadres. As consistently pointed out, they and their fronts are wealthy and, they collect millions from taxpayers as does Peter “Corrupter of Youth” Garrett’s front, The Australian Conservation Foundation (Tony Abbott, more implications of his “Green Army”).

It should not be forgotten that one of their fronts, the Greens Party, also receives millions of dollars for scoring votes at election time. The whole business of political parties receiving taxpayers money is corrupt and should be ended as it is. It aggravates the wound considerably more when it is considered whom Australians are compelled to fund. (1)

The Right in the Liberal Party are also clinging to the fraud against taxpayers for dear life too. Consider Victoria. Through Michael Kroger, they have eradicated members. Membership fees and donations, including from firms have dried up. What’s propping them up is dear old sodding serf taxpayer.

What has brought things to a head inside the Wilderness Stalinist front is the case of Gunns, which one has still to write up. The “Vexed” report  contains the telling detail:

“… Gunns achieved much more than making the Wilderness Society cautious about assaulting timber workers, it also discovered as part of the legal process a raft of embarrassing documents that reflect very adversely against the high-ups in the Wilderness Society.”

It’s not the hard Left aims they are divided over. They are at each other’s throats on how now to pursue their aims, which means a coup de tat in their $15 million dollar taxpayer funded bunker. This is what Australians are hit for. Australians plundered to keep a pack of diseased, corrosive, Stalinist parasites and to fund their acts of treachery against Australians and Australia.

It was the Right who also funded such fifth columnists in the Howard Cabinet through three watermelon red ministers, Ian Campbell, David Kemp, and Malcolm Turnbull. Besides the Right’s lousy, anti-free market ‘economics’, some readers still ask why I am attacking the Right. Well, this is one more bloody good reason why, and it’s in a long list of bloody good reasons to slam into these arrogant, contemptuous (of the little man and his inalienable rights) ignoramuses. While this lot stand, the Hard Left won’t be obliterated and the rotten thing is, they can be obliterated in short time.

It’s a source of hilarity listening to Leftists whine about “big Business” funding free market and anti- carbon tax causes and scientists to fight.

The amount going into these causes is a pin drop pured into the bank vaults of the hard Left here and overseas. Two major backers are those two treacherous anti-American, anti-freedom thugs George Soros and Al Gore. Gore, besides collecting billions more in financial markets, is also making another multi-billion fortune out the frauds of carbon credits, alternative energy, and carbon emissions compliance schemes. These two alone are pouring vast sums into hard, communist fronts.

Gunns is fighting on three fronts:

Rotten politicians

The ACCC out to stop Gunns achieving capital scale through a merger

The hard Left through their fronts.

(I will be writing this up, because there are very important matters, including the ACCC action. Barnaby Joyce, obvious Opposition “Deah Leadah” material, should pay attention, and also the rest of the idle Right in Parliament.)

A suggestion to the Directors of Gunns:

You can win, but you need a gun to do it. It requires solid, genuine free market economics and translated also into battle tactics. If you are interested, I will pass on any contact to those who will genuinely see it done, the the help you really need. The email address is linked on the top right hand corner and, as my unwavering steadfast consistency shows, confidentiality is strictly adhered to. Gunns and its investments, and it’s new investment projects are good for Tasmanians, good for Australians and, last but not least, ladies and gentlemen, Gunns is a damned fine company.

Footnote

(1)   The hypocrisy and viciousness of Tony Abbott is shown up in his singular cowardly persecution of Pauline Hanson.

Consider, Hanson did touch a raw nerve, with modest Australians and within the Right. She express anger against the balkanisation of Australia through multi-cultural-ism and unrestricted immigration. She struck another nerve in touching up the rule of law must apply to all. This was a shock to the Right, since Pauline Hanson and One Nation picked up great numbers of voters in its early years.

Yet, there was much gravely wrong, perilously wrong with their position, as follows: they did, as Jackson pithily described it, “lead  a nihilistic charge against… condemning free trade, deregulation, free markets, competition and cheap milk.”

It opens up the question of what did One Nation mean by the rule of Law. On the strength of their economic nostrums, take note Barnaby Joyce, it could hardly mean the Rule of Common Law and thus inalienable rights. Rights for some, not for others. It impressed that there also seemed a fascistic edge to what they were saying. Mind, they crumpled all up in laughter when they finished it off by saying Treasury should print truck loads of money.

But, confining the point to free trade to cheap milk, Abbott and the Right couldn’t confront here nostrums in good old open, public debate and shred them. Nor admit the concerns of balkanisation of Australia and inalienable rights are real, and thus also stood up to the hard Left. No, this would take brains, principles, sound economics and genuine respect for the little man, and firms for that matter… and investors.

Harold Clough, who also funds the clowns in the IPA and CIS, decided he’d like to fight One Nation, funded Abbott’s vicious, cowardly plot to have Hanson thrown in prison. After it was all, Hanson a convict, and Clough’s name also dragged through the mud he helped create, was genuinely sorry for what had been done to Hanson. He realised, though too late, what Abbott never has.

Indeed, Abbott’s tactics were “squalid”. The judge who presided also a nasty portent of things to come. Abbott’s ‘case’, enthusiastically supported by Alexander Downer, was legalistic scrupulosity demanded she be convicted. She wasn’t corrupt, ordinarily, and she even paid back the money. This, Abbott, is not the Rule of Common Law, nor a sign of corruption. It is a sign of something else.

Abbott has never learned a thing. Even better, he is for balkanisation of Australia and “with knobs on”, open door immigration. He supports the theft of inalienable rights. He is all for economic thuggery committed by politicians. The upshot is, the hard Left and their aims are not crushed, neither are free markets defended and advanced.

Instead, we see the Right, in the name of the Liberal Party (what little is left of it that is) jumping into bed with the leprosy carriers. What a stunning success. One consequence is, firms, investors, and so many employees and their families are now fighting for dear life. Another is, Abbott and Rudd will wipe all out anyway with carbon taxes.

Let’s just chalk it up to Tony as another entry in his long list of benefactions he has personally bestowed on those stinking oafs called Australians. I, for one, am in no doubt at all that it is. You can tell, the hard Left had a right good time running this disgusting scandal through all the media and didn’t they roast and send up little Tony. What a scream that was.

No, the corruption I mean is, is the fact of politicians swiping taxpayers funds for their parties. Hanson, by the way, wasn’t responsible for this fraud. Hawke and Keating committed it, the Right agreed to it and kept on committing it. Abbott is worse than a hypocrite.

Pauline Hanson: who is the real villain?

Liberal Party News: Professor Plimer demonstrates scientifically what everyone knows Kevin Rudd and Greg Hunt are

And Tony Abbott too:

Ignorant, illiterate, anti-free market clowns out to ruin Australians and Australia.

ESSINGTON LEWIS LECTURE, 19th November 2009, Professor Ian Plimer

There is no point in holding back. The only thing the likes of Rudd, Wong, Abbott, Swann, Hunt and Helen Kroger understand is when they are shredded.

Here, we add something which isn’t mentioned in public but also destroys the ‘man causes global warming/climate change’ bunk and points to what carbon taxes can do:

Intense 100 year drought nearly wiped out civilisation entirely, from Greece to the Middle East

During the C12th B.C. to the C10th B.C.

The climates of Europe and the Middle East are inter-related. A shift in the former is matched by a shift in the latter, with a time difference of about 100 years. The physics of weather defy attempts to determine weather patterns. It can’t be determined, which in any case is a contradiction of what the laws of the universe are.

(I am not a physicist but I can say this. Best of all, when I have a question in need of expertise I ask as a layman physicists and when in need of advice I seek their advice. I have an economics question, I don’t go to Leftists, nor IPA, HR Nicholls Society, CIS, Quadrant Magazine. I go to Brookesnews and Mr. Jackson and Dr. Frank Shostak. Occasionally, these days unlike some years ago, I write to genuine free market economists overseas for advice on matters to be raised in items.)

The Orthodoxy Problem

During the late 13th century B.C to the late 11th century BC, Greek and middle eastern civilisation all but collapsed.

Biblical historians believed the record of destruction confirmed the ‘conquest’ narrated in Joshua. The ruination of cities, however, occurred over far too long a period of time and too widespread throughout the Middle East to even weakly support the notion of Joshua and Israel, quite apart from other historical objections, to be the sacker of cities, as also other suggestions such as marauding tribes did the dirty deed.

Marxist historians asserted the destruction demonstrates class warfare occurred back then and on a scale that, if true, was staggering. This is a pile of dung. The IPA and CIS would impose their own pile of dung in asserting that it is evidence of ‘neo-classical’ economic ‘creative destruction’. They must, to be consistent.

Greek and Middle Eastern scholars, Biblical Scholars and Marxists were studying the same oddities independent of each other with no hypothesis robust enough to explain what had happened.

The Rhys Carpenter Hypothesis (1960’s) is theory

The evidence supports a singular conclusion. It is the true explanation and so can no longer be treated as an hypothesis only. It is theory, is my contention.

In the 1960’s, Rhys Carpenter put the hypothesis a climactic shift had occurred which induced a severe, general drought enduring many years, resulting in catastrophic famine. Such an event would have been sufficient to induce civil mayhem, violence and depopulation matching the archaeological record, accompanied by the destruction of cities.

The obstacle to accepting the explanation was that there was insufficient evidence in the 60’s and, consequently,  it was rejected. By the 1980’s, however, things had changed. Palaeontology and geology had thrown up data which pointed to what Carpenter had postulated. Archaeological evidence threw up telling agreements.

Briefly:

1. European lakes, began to decline c.1400, reaching their lowest levels in the late 11th century to mid-10th.

2. Peat bogs dried out from c.1400 until the 10th century, becoming bogs again around 900 B.C.

3. Glaciers retreated - Swiss Alps, Himalayas and Mt. Kenya, 1160-mid C8th B.C.

4. From pollen samples, Kashmir’s annual monsoon rainfall had fallen by 70% from C15th/14th to C13th/12th B.C. and began recovering thereafter.

5. Monsoon rains feed Lake Victoria, which feeds the Nile River. Lake Victoria’s levels began falling after 1300 B.C., shown by the geological strata.

6 Tigris-Euphrates river flows reduced quickly after 1300, and by very large amounts, not recovering until from the mid 10th century

7. Of the Nile, the Pleusioi branch of the Nile completely silted up, resulting in the abandonment of the city Per Ramses in 1070, while the lower Nubia of the Nile dried out completely.

8. The C12th is the end of Hittite and Ugarit records. Claude F.A. Schaeffer uncovered at Ugarit a strata of white powdery soil, evidence of a very long period of intense heat and no rain.

9. Evidence throughout Cisjordan and Transjordan is consistent with the inference, a drought occurred of incomprehensible severity and duration. A century anthropomorphically is a very long age, though not in physics.

10. The soil strata for the period, from Egypt to the Indus Valley, ranges from conditions typifying Saharan soils to thoroughly desiccated. Intense heat of long duration causes this.

11. Inscriptions from the reigns of:

Ramses X, 1126-1108:  ‘we are weak and hungry’

Ramses XI.,1098-70, declares:  “(this year was) the year of hyenas, when men starved”. That’s saying something, viz the death toll from starvation and murderous violence.

12. Enna Epic, Babylon: Enna means ’scorched earth’.

The Enna Epic relates, besides Enna, Ishun (’fiery sun’) and Sibitti demons (’plagues’).

13 Correspondence:

An Assyrian text, 1090, complains of no rain and crop failures. In 1082, another writer commented in shock, ‘people are at one another’s flesh’ ( because of famine)

Hittite King Suppiluluimas II requested from his vassal of Ugarit a shipment of grain, as they faced starvation, but the king of Ugarit did not comply for the same reason.

14. In the late 12th century,  the exchange rate of gold for grain had risen to 24x that prior to the drought, and continued spiralling thereafter - gold could no longer buy a grain of wheat, there was none to buy.

15. Pottery, the make of ewers changes from elegant and decorated to coarse and of great size. Volume, capacity and not aesthetics, is prized.

16. It is the first time water bores, cisterns, are sunk into rock.

17. “Mutiny on the Bounty”. For the first time in history the totally trustworthy, scrupulous river-boat crews steal cargoes of grain.

18. Pyramids and tomb are plundered for gold to buy brain. It had never been done before then.

19. Pyramid and tomb builders were among the highest paid labourers in Egypt. So highly paid that, to relate their pay rates in today’s terms, it is they who would own the homes of Toorak and South Yarra. Des Moore and Hugh Morgan would be slumming it in the outer urbs of Melbourne. They were paid in grain, which they traded.

For the first time immemorial the unheard of happened. They went on strike. The reason is, they had not been paid in months and were never paid again.

In sum

A severe, prolonged drought of 100 years duration, marked by intense heat, with the Nile and Tigress-Euphrates reduced to muddy bogs splitting a land completely dry.

Effects:

1. During the 100 years, sporadic depopulation of regions and cities due to:

Death from starvation, whole family clans in villages died; with abandonment of cities and regions.

2. Other times: civil revolts and murderous violence by citizens desperate for food.

3. Invasions by peoples to take lands

4. The above agrees with evidence for Greek and Hellenic cities and villages, which show the same patterns. I suggest it is the motive for the Greek invasion of Troy, observing the Hittites were in no position to aid Troy due to famine.

5. Hattuses, Troy, Miletus, Tarsus, Carchemish, Qodesh, Ugarit, and other Hittite strongholds were all destroyed, completely wiped out.

Poetic account of the disaster

Yam is the god ‘Sea’. Yam is a violent usurper of the Canaanite pantheon. The name, “Red Sea”, picks up a notable feature of the ancient Greeks, their hair.

“Sea People”: first used of a coalition in 1175 defeated by Ramses III:

Hatti, Koda (Cicilia), Carchemish Alashija, Anzawa Pleset, Tjerker, Skelesh Denye(n) and Wesesh.

The invasion route was through Asia Minor to Syria, taking the coastal route to Egypt by land and a naval force direct to the Nile Delta, a pincer movement.  It wasn’t simply  soldiers and sailors. It was all, their women and children, live-stock and chattels. They wanted to take the land because they were desperate. After both coalition forces had been defeated by Ramses III they settled along the coastal plain of Canaan.

The Peleset were the ‘Philisitines’, from Caphtor

Akawasha, also called Keftiu , most likely Crete. Their dress was as depicted in cartouches, Mycenaean.  The Old Testament, for example, in a very early unit, Samuel II 8:18, has the name for Cretans, Cherethites.

A coalition of Libyans, Shardana, Shelesh, Akawasha, Lukka, Tursha invaded Egypt in 1178 through Libya. Pharaoh Merneptah defeated them in c.1178,  in two desperate battles, sea and land. They are “Sea Peoples” and again of another a coalition defeated by Ramses III in 1178, of Libyans, Peleset, and Tjerker.

The whole period is behind legends in Exodus to Book of Kings I, and the Greek epics on Troy, dear old Homer.

The Ugaritic myth is in records which cease when Ugarit ceased.

Yammu nearly succeeds in claiming and retaining the throne of the Canaanite pantheon installed by Il. The Southern form of Il is El. Yes, the El behind the Old Testament El. Il is finally overthrown, as the priest mythographer relates:

Comment:

Yammu regards and treats the other gods with contempt. He bows not to them. He asserts his kingship. Enfeebled El is no more the warrior. Yet, even as Yam strides to claim the throne, outraged Baal/Hadad would rise up and in fury smite Yam/Nahar.

The myth of Shachar and Shalim has what might be said a pornographic tinge to it, but that was then and it was a time of riot. Death pursued the living with relentless fury.

Yammu is revered and feared. A destroyer god. Fierce, his sword is bloody with the gore of the slain and it rests not. His earthly host is the Greek based coalitions.

The mythographer depicts the pantheon in crisis and in it Yam threatens to conquer. It is the rise of the Sea People. Their God has come.

Another indication is the God Ba’lu= Haddu = Adad(os) = (Greek) Zeus identification. Zeus was worshipped in Syria until the mid 9th century as the head of the Pantheon, and also in the early Aramaean pantheon.

In the OT eitiology of Yam, Sea People and Red Sea are completely detached, lost, from the name. The defeat of the Sea is a miracle performed by Yahweh, his act of rescue. Hence, the failure to identify the famous ‘Red Sea Crossing’ from geography, let alone archaeological evidence.

In the crisis, an axis of the Israelites-Judahites, the people of Yahweh, withstood the violence. The legend of Moses has history behind it. What is this history?

The “rescue”, Moses and the Israelites pass through the sea and Pharaoh and his army are slain by the sea, has historical foundations. There was, on very good probabilities rooted in material, a ‘Moses’ who did come down from a very high ‘mountain’. In an age of drought, invasion, death and destruction, the Holy One delivered his people and ‘Moses’ led them through the ‘wilderness’.

(We’ll write it up for an item.)

Conclusion

What occurred during the 13th to 10th centuries was two shifts in climate, the first being that resulting in a century long period of drought, the second ending the drought by a shift back to colder and wet climates. These two shifts alone ocurred over very long periods (hence the long time recovery took) with a century of no mere drought between them.

They cannot be explained by ‘man made global warming’ pseudo-physics. They contradict outright the ‘hockey stick’ and ‘climate model’ . The physics involved is too intricate to admit of an explanation, the subject of Professor Stott’s letters.

All that can be gainsaid is, they are consistent with physics.

‘Natural’, even though the notions ‘nature’ and ‘natural’ are nonsensical. Nothing is “natural”. Nature, and its forms is merely a linguistic convenience, though a regular word.

Civilisation in the balance - What carbon taxes can cause

The consequences for civilisation were near catastrophic on the one hand and, on the other hand, changed history.

Mass starvation and death, large scale migrations as also by attempted military conquests of lands in the quest for water and arable land. Depopulations of regions.

The overthrow of Hittite empire and destruction of its cities. The end of Ugarit. Greek settlements in the coastal plain.

The first water bores dug down through rock. The nearly achieved conquest of Eygypt by the Greeks - a tantalising prospect. Imagine the revolution in history had they succeeded.

It was a topsy turvy time, which has left its echoes in theistic beliefs and literature, traces which endure today, even in the Middle East.

That was then. This is now.

It is pertinent to point out some major differences between then and now.

Due to commerce, science, engineering and technology, we are not reliant on whatever ‘nature’ dishes out. Capitalism is the miracle that brought this about and changed life so immensely for the better. Carbon taxation will drag us back to the days of starvation, death and unceasing violence in which no man is safe.

In Australia, during drought, afflicted land is shut down on a basic maintenance program until recovery. Commercial production is ramped up in other areas. Internationally, free trade entails that no people need be reliant on domestic production. No one need suffer famine during periods of severe drought.

The reasons for mass starvation in some countries today are genuinely man made. The culprits were savage regimes only. The numbers of ruthless thugs have been increased. Western politicians, bureaucrats and conmen running the ethanol scam have destroyed tremendous agricultural production. Spiralling food prices, riots, starvation and death have been visited on the peaceful.

Western politicians, bureaucrats and conmen running the ethanol scam are guilty of these hideous crimes and their excuse? The excuse is the lie of Stalinists, of whom the Greens Party is only one front, the lie that ‘man causes global warming/climate change’.

We Australians are fortunate. We have not, as yet, been subjected to the full impact of this anti-free market policy dictating death and destruction through the deliberate destruction of food production. Bob Katter, National Party, stood up in Parliament today and declared:

“Ethanol should be mandated and be produced (on immense scale).”

This way, Katter continued, sugar cane growers will be made wealthy. Andrew Bolt uses his column to promote this horrendous fraud. That the current scheme is still a capital destroying, impoverishing fraud escapes the likes of Katter and Bolt. I committed a typo yesterday:

I called Andrew Bolt “Mr. Ethanol Man”.

I apologise to Andrew Bolt, because, Andrew Bolt, you are “The  Ethanol Kid”.

Kid: child/juvenile goat. Type of kid, an a-nueronal delinquent.

Darn, my mistake, Bob Katter is an Independent MP. A reasonable mistake. (1)

Ethanol has a time  honoured name, Moonshine

For a swig of moonshine, politicians, conmen and Andrew “The Ethanol Kid” Bolt would destroy food production in Australia. Andrew Bolt is “on the same page” as Greg lindsay and his CIS and the vested interests on whose behalf Lindsay and his cranks filled CIS are lobbying for carbon taxes.

Moreover, on the rule of comparative advantage, there is no necessary reason for reliance on domestic production. In other words, what happened in ancient history cannot occur to day, due to civilised progress, which is capitalism. But this is what the politicians will reverse.

Water everywhere and not a ruddy drop to drink

It’s not only vital for life. Production is impossible without water in tremendous, low cost volumes.

The only reason why states such as Victoria are still ‘drought afflicted’ is because our rotten, corrupt, absolutism bent politicians did not get out of the way and let entrepreneurs in free markets build massive dams in the Otways and on the Mitchell River. Their Green policies means they can murder many Australians. They have already done so using Green policies.

The Victorian Parliament outlawed investment in cheap, efficient coal based energy. This is the smoking gun with which Victorians were murdered last summer. The politicians, Federal and State, murdered more Victorians by turning land into fire-storms. More is awaiting detonation.

As for carbon taxes, they will not simply destroy energy, capital, and immiserate Australians. It also entails the real danger of the brutal savagery that tore apart the civilised world in C12th BC to C10th B.C. as men, women and children became desperate.

Anyone who pretends this cannot happen and that Australians are incapable of this is a liar.

Desperation and the desire to survive can render even the kindest the most brutal. Kevin Rudd is a liar, his Cabinet are liars and what sits opposite them are liars.

Liars, and butchers in the making. All the best qualities of totalitarian thugs already present in these vicious, parasitical bastards.

Footnote

(1)  It is easy to assume the real problem is Katter is annoyed the National Party won’t let him decide their anti-free market ‘economic policies’. It is not at all clear whether there is any real disgreement. They seem to infest the same mosquito infested swamp. Katter is a land Nat.

I could be mistaken. I’ll take correction. It could be another Right real vapid battle on the twiddly winks carpet. There are only two truly ferocious, bloody games in the entire world, lawn bowls and twiddly winks.

We have something to unload about National Party leader Warren Truss’ time as a minister in the Howard Cabinet. The guy is as vacant as Tony Abbott and Helen Kroger and, man, he doesn’t let a bloke down. He was at his vapid best today in Parliament.

Any more vapidity and, taken with Helen Kroger’s and Abbott’s and Greg Hunt’s gas, I’m going to set up a bottling factory banging down $20 on the knocker, grab $60 million in subsidies, sell the gas to “government”, send the $260 millions into a spanking new Swiss bank account, obtain citizenship, and in Luxembourg, Isle of Man, Barbados and piss on off out of here. Dr. Ken Henry, hard Leftist and Uber Green cult adherent, will spit the dentures, plug them back in, only to swallow the whole damned set and lose ‘em down the crapper in little tiny pieces.

The Viscount Monckton-Professor Plimer tour (Part I)

Having attended the Melbourne leg of the tour on Monday, there is much to relate, so this will be spread over several items. First up is the Melbourne newspapers’ coverage of it. The Herald Sun’s coverage was not much better than The Age’s.

Andrew Bolt didn’t get his facts right and told a whopper misrepresenting the tour and Monday’s presentation. Well done Bolt, again.

The Age, aka the “Spencer Street Soviet”

Surprise, surprise, The Age’s objective, fact filled report was of course a nasty little bit of character assassination and on this rested it’s case: Viscount Monckton is a crank, so there. It quoted no less an authority than Barnaby Joyce, which is an irony because, as The Age made sure to note, Joyce is a ‘climate sceptic’. Viscount Monckton must be really deranged for the Barnaby to say that.

Joyce couldn’t help the liars at The Age any better. According to Joyce, Monckton is way out on the “fringe”. Well, Mr. Barnaby Joyce, you really have to read the history of science to find out how many of the seminal theorists were ‘out on the fringe’ and not only in the history of science. Galileo, Newton, and Darwin, according to the Barnaby, must be way-out ‘whackoes’.

Barnaby Joyce hasn’t bothered to find out how mainstream Monckton’s grip on the science questions is and how strictly scientific his reasoning is. Mind, Barnaby is struggling with why ‘anti-cartel laws’ are devastating and with why free markets are good for everyone, so why bother with what both Monckton and Plimer unfold?

For the Right, anything involving an intellectual degree of difficulty greater than 1/6949483838th is a waste of time. Besides, as Ray Evans, Des Moore and Professor Sinclair Davidson amplify, it requires something that is a crime against them, work and concentration. Give Barnaby a break, he’s only a “pollie’. Why, he could be the next leader of the Opposition!

Ha! “Climate sceptic”

If there are any scientists sceptical about climate, please email Mangled Thoughts or contact the Guinness Book of Records. It is a tad transparent that neither are Monckton and Plimer. If they and a gallaxy of scientists have a fault, they are too damned obvious about it.

What else was the Spencer Street Soviet going to do?

Write the unvarnished truth! Kenneth Davidson, typifying this lot, oozes hatred for the values of a free West. Jackson in Brookesnews distilled this diseased pedlar of propaganda for Stalinist thugs, a “Chomskyite” -

“… from whom does this fanatical Bush-hater get his facts? From the equally mendacious and fanatical Chomsky. In fact, Davidson is so fond of Chomsky he has even plagiarised him.”

Bad economics caused our current account problems

This pack of treacherous Leftists, The Age, who lied about the war against Saddam Hussien and Islamo-fascists, daily, to undermine Bush, Howard, the West and the poor sods in the Middle East who are the victims of butchers. Wait, there’s more!

In 2005, Kenneth Davidson praised a man as democratic values incarnate in an ‘article’ loaded with his hard Left drivel purveyed as economic commentary, all to attack Bush and the U.S. Ah, my mistake, the Stalinists in the US Democrats must be what Davidson means.

Hugo Chavez, Kenneth Davidson’s hero, hailed around the world and in the Australin media as Fidel Castro II. (The pricey well-oiled military superpower, Kenneth Davidson,The Age, 11/8/05.)

Hugo Chavez the thug bent on imposing a totalitarian regime on Venezuela. A drug kingpin killing youngsters around the world. A butcher funding and equipping Marxist guerrillas in his continuing effort to do the same to Chile. A terrorist funding and training Islamo-fascist terrorists from the Middle East, and Ireland.

This Stalinist mass murderer is idolised and fully supported by hard Left fronts in Australia. The Greens and Bob Brown are only a few of these very many fifth columnists.

Bob Brown and the Greens and the other treacherous Left fronts want an open door policy into Australia for Chavez and his gang of mass murderers. This, and the above, is what Kenneth Davidson and The Age are running propaganda for. What does Barnaby Joyce do?

He runs to the propaganda rag run by scumbags for scumbags to indulge in character assassination of Viscount Monckton!

That was The Age’s ‘coverage’. Of course, they had to do it. Monckton is deadly to the hard left, Stalinist cause using the lie of man causes climate change to conceal their real objective:

Use carbon taxes to destroy capitalist Western values, impose tyranny, enslave modest Australians, and destroy them totally.

My, the Right in Parliament are doing a fine job of aiding and abetting them, cheered on by the media and Greg Lindsay and the CIS and the interests they serve. MacQuarrie Bank springs to mind and, yes:

Greg Lindsay, I’ve been doing the job Andrew Bolt and Tim Blair can’t do, investigative journalism. I have compiled fresh material. Stay tuned, another scoop on the way and, man, I have a stock-pile of scoops in hand.

Herald Sun

What did this so-called answer to the “Spencer Street Soviet” have to say? A newspaper that pretends to defend the little man but pours out bilge cheering to the hard Left daily. It was all but a big fat zero.

No! It is a big fat zero. Their coverage is confined to an extension of it’s news site, euphemistically called a blog. Andrew Bolt’s ‘blog’. This is an eternal big fat zero.

This was an a-typically brief paragraph. How embarrassing. I thank Herald Sun for saving typing time.

 

Andrew Bolt

In Never mind the argument Andrew Bolt states the obvious. Of course the media are not going to state the obvious, truth and facts. So? What next?

Here’s a ‘what next’ question for Andrew Bolt, and Tim Blair for that matter, several in fact:

  1. When will you, Andrew Bolt, get serious, and rip the jugular out of the Left?
  2. When will you attack Tim Blair for untruthful ‘reporting’ – Tim Blair’s defence of capital alone during the stock market crash of 2008 was unmitigated rubbish that only paraphrased the lies spun by Rudd and the hard Left?
  3. When will Tim Blair eviscerate Andrew Bolt’s contempt for modest Victorians and other stupidities? (1)
  4. When will you, Andrew Bolt, get serious and rip the jugular out of the fifth columnists in the media?

Questions 1) and 4) are not answered in his item on the Melbourne leg of the Viscount Monckton-Professor Plimer tour.

When, Andrew “Mr. Ethanol Man” Bolt, you have even twigged onto an inkling of tough, objective, uncompromising, Liberty defending, investigative journalism, alert me. I will write a double page spread extolling this trivial achievement. Then on the next achievement, you found a single neuron to do it with.

Bolt merely links The Age’s character assassination of Monckton, prefaced with an empty statement and wrapped up with a remark of the same calibre. He then mentions an ABC (Australian Bolshevik Commune) Lateline segment , as hard hitting as the “Spencer Street Soviet’s” expose, but at least they gave Viscount Monckton oxygen.

Did Andrew Bolt ask Viscount Monckton about the segment and asked for his assessment of it? He did not. Instead, Bolt makes a couple of his typical vacuous assertions.

Let’s spell it out for Andrew Bolt:

Monckton knows the only way to fight is to go out into the open and face the diseased. Andrew Bolt doesn’t understand why this is important, neither do the rest of the Right. Why it is vital to do this was demonstrated at Stockholm. Why it is crucial to do this was demonstrated during question time on Monday.

Funnier still, at ‘go home time’, there was informal questioning of Monckton by members of the audience.  Someone asked Monckton about the  Lateline segment. Let’s introduce his reply with an anecdote.

Both protagonists in the famous BBC debate that launched the “Death of God” controversy stepped out into the arena knowing there, in intellectual battle, victory or death would be greeted. Father Coppleston S.J. was confident. He assumed he knew Lord Bertrand Russell’s case.

Coppleston assumed his case was impregnable. Coppleston commenced confident and in tempo. As the debate develops, he crumples as the implications of his case sink in, due to Russell’s blistering arguments.

Coppleston made the mistake of presumption twice. He really did not recognise what is wrong with what was essentially an a-priori argument that also doesn’t have theological foundation. This was his attack and defence against some implications of physics. It was devastating for what he sought to defend.

That was a genuine intellectual engagement. The debate is a delight to read. Though, I have to say this, I felt genuine pity for Coppleston when I first read the transcripts. He was reduced to trying to work through anew the case in the middle of a magnificent fight. His mistakes bar one are not obvious, but they were fatal.

The fight against the man causes global warming/climate change claim is one sided. It’s unfair, one-sided and butcher’s work. It is intellect and truth against hard Left cultists. This is not debate. It is, or should be (as we shall probe in another item), unstoppable blitzkreig.

The enemy has to be destroyed publicly by those equipped to do it. It can be done. It should have been done long ago, but for the Right. It can be and it must be done using two swords, science and sound, genuine, free market economics.

Bolt is not equipped to do this on the counts of economics and science. Neither is Tim Blair. Both pretend they are equipped and pretend they are even doing the work laymen can do. This was Viscount Monckton’s answer:

“I expect it, I ask for it. There is no other way to fight and win.”

What does Bolt say:

‘Poor Monckton, he was put upon by nasty hard Left ABC. Not fair.’

Bolt is really saying, “Run up the yellow flag and run for dear life.”

Andrew Bolt, Combat Officer

Flying the yellow flag is the Right’s second battle tactic. The other and major tactic, formulated by field Marshall “Derwin” Michael Kroger “Krommel” and Andrew Bolt’s caviar feeder is:

“Let the Left punish Australians and wreck Australia. The smelly oafs will come screaming back to the Right.”

Jesus Christ,  does it work. The “success” of both tactics have been substantiated time and again on this site, Mangled Thoughts.

Well, that’s understandable. While the Right happily smears genuine Liberals and stabs them in the back, this lot are afraid of the hard Left, they cower before them. This is why they refuse any opportunity involving direct, public confrontation with Leftists.

Even better, the Right and their think tanks know they cannot eviscerate the Left in public. They know it is they who will be eviscerated, humiliated and exposed for the frauds and charlatans they actually are. Tim Blair and Andrew Bolt are journalism’s version of charlatans.

Andrew Bolt tried it once, taking on the hard Left in public, and the whole audience at R.M.I.T and his erstwhile Leftist opponent giggled all the way through. So did I. He had nothing to say. What he bilged on about, and it sure “ain’t” clear what precisely he was bilging on about, caused the giggle disease.

Andrew Bolt continues in the same vein. ‘Look at what that nasty Mike Carlton did, He stuck his tongue out against Viscount Monckton too’.

“Boo bloody hoo” Andrew Bolt, you gutless twerp.

Here is Bolt’s introduction to a news-feed quote from Mike Carlton’s horrendous, terrifying assault:

“Anyway, here’s Fairfax columnist Mike Carlton (above) last November, carefully demonstrating why Monckton is wrong:”

Let’s “carefully demonstrate” something for the benefit of Andrew Bolt:

a)  Mike Carlton is a front-man of the treacherous Left.

b)  He flies cover for his fellow fifth columnists.

c)  This bastard flew cover for the Left in their propaganda war against Howard and the war against Saddam and Islamo-fascists.

During c), Carlton was engaged in deflecting attention away from what the Left were really doing, made very easy by Andrew Bolt and Tim Blair.

Mike Carlton was deflecting attention from what should be considered as treason committed by Kim Beazley and Kevin Rudd in their smearing of Howard and their unmistakeable insinuation that the Australian armed forces and the forces of Britain and US were about to commit a horrendous crime. But that’s OK, because according to them and their mates in the media Howard is the number 1 war criminal.

Kim Beazley, as leader of the then (dis-) Loyal opposition, addressed patriotic, oath-sworn, professional fighting men shortly before their voyage to Gulf War II. The Prime Bombast of Australia brayed, “The cause is wrong, Howard is wrong, but we national socialists support you.

Kim Beazley sailed close to the wind. He nearly crossed the line into overt treason. Beazley nearly committed what Leftists fronts for the US Democrats Stalinists have been trying to do for decades now: corrupt the men of the US armed forces by inducing them to break their oath sworn duty.

There they were, brave men ready to depart Australian shores to do their duty in fighting ferocious enemies and what did Beazley and his monkey, Kevin Rudd, do?

They told brave men ‘we support you but what you are about to do is criminal’.

These two slimes were given great media oxygen for their treachery against the Armed forces and Australia inside and outside of Parliament. What was the response of the Right?

Nothing. Zip. Not a word inside and outside of Parliament. They dove for cover and locked the steel doors to their bunkers, including the CIS, HR Nicholls Society and IPA clubrooms.

Damn! I lied. The CIS, HR Nicholls Society and the IPA didn’t run for cover. It’s worse than that. They just don’t give a damn.

Kim Beazley and Rudd Rudd were protected by the media, by Mike Carlton and his pals and the Right.

Yes Andrew Bolt, you haven’t got the balls to nail slimes like Beazley, Mike Carlton and Kenneth Davidson for what they truly are.

What is the problem Andrew Bolt?

Is Andrew Bolt afraid he’ll be kicked off a $4,000 per week screw that he sneeringly told little Victorians they also earn but are too stupid to realise it and praise Peter Costello for?

What is funnier is, Mike Carlton’s mauling of Viscount Monckton is no better than the rant of some vicious, sozzled little bum. How on earth does a sozzled, vicious bum earn a Mike Carlton type screw?

Eddie “Everywhere” McGuire

Here’s something to drive it home. Eddie “Everywhere” McGuire is a successful TV entertainer. Fine. Nothing wrong with that. What is wrong is when McGuire turned ‘journalist’. His ‘politics’ are despicable.

He’s flying cover for rotten bastards in Spring Street. This multi-millionaire Leftist protects his mates in Spring Street and Rudd and Wong in Canberra. This highly principled man flies cover for Vic Crime Inc, saying how splendid things are for Victorians.

This luxuriating prima dona does a Bolt, a Michael Kroger, a Peter Costello, an IPA, HR Nicholls Society, CIS, and Quadrant Magazine. He says the little Victorian is an ingrate if they don’t realise how well off they are and they should obey him and his mates in Spring Street and Canberra (he could be channeling Bolt).

If it weren’t for the fact that Eddie McGuire pinned his pink colours to Steve Bracks, John Brumby and Kevin Rudd (he reckons Rudd is God’s gift to serfs), Why! Kroger would have him “in like Flynn” in the Liberal Party. Michael kroger would stick Eddie McGuire on his ‘executive’ board controlling what is left of the Liberal Party. Kroger would fix a nice, safe seat in Federal Parliament for Eddie Mcguire. Can’t say fairer than that now, eh.

What surprises me is the IPA, CIS, HR Nicholls Society, and Quadrant Magazine have not yet got around to devoting a whole library to the ‘economic classics’ of Eddie McGuire.

Heavens above, the IPA has recognized the splendor of Tim Blair’s oeuvre, and Chris Berg’s and Andrew Kemp’s joint amazing history, Islam founded Western Civilisation. No doubt the IPA is engaged in a $400,000 evaluation ‘project’ of McGuire’s oeuvre, soon to be concluded with a resounding, “They are classics! He is one of us. He’s a great.”

You know Eddie, you are losing viewers because you are telling them through the Herald Sun that you are no better than the Right and the Left. The little man and his freedoms, what are they?

Smelly oafs, and, to use Tony Abbott’s expression, ‘benefactions’. This is not me, Eddie. This is the little man, you know, the smelly little oafs who are being turned out of factories, daily, who is saying this. Production that is being wiped out by your mates as good as ‘daily’, and managers are saying this. But you wouldn’t know about all this Eddie. In fact, Eddie McGuire, you don’t know about enterprise and capital at all.

You have spent your entire ‘career’ in one of the few genuine cartels in existence in Australia, broadcasting. While Fels, his successor and their best parasitic friend, Peter Costello, busied themselves destroying real enterprise. Best of all, they protected the likes of you and your Channel 9. It’s a cosy arrangement with ABC, the Left, and  the Right, and sod Australians.

Meanwhile, “Smart Aleck” Eddie McGuire, your pals are stealing the inalienable rights of the little man and are being ruined by shocking economic ‘policies’ and totalitarian decrees.

When can we expect you, Mr. McGuire, to be appointed as  feature economics, law, and politics columnist for “The Spencer Street Soviet” aka The Age? Or is there a “glitch” in the details of a mega-dollars contract?

Watch it Eddie, Ross Gittens and Kenneth Davidson won’t like playing second fiddle to a great apologist for the treacherous Left. You oleaginous bastard.

There, Andrew Bolt, I’ve written another two columns you should write but don’t have the guts to do it. What a ton of lard this Bolt is. The only thing bolted in is the screw lobbed into his bank account for doing damn all.

Bolt ends as he commenced:

“The last time I saw Carlton he was drunk, and throwing wine…”

Come again, Bolt? And, your Right wing big “bruvvers”, your ‘ghost writers’ - Michael Kroger’s name for some odd reason keeps occurring, don’t get boozed to the eyeballs either? What an attack.

The asinine committed the asinine again. The Bolt litmus test is a blanket. He has a security blanket. It’s called a Tim Blair blanket.

Phut!

That was the grand news coverage of the Melbourne leg of the  Viscount Monckton-Professor Plimer tour. Two tiny little items condemned to the obscure pages, one written by a Stalinist and the other written by a bloody joke.

Damn, I gave Bolt two more columns: an uncompromising expose of Tim Blair and, gad, the other’s name escapes me. All I remember is a ton of lard rolling over the top of modest Victorians.

Footnote

(1)  During the fight for free labour markets under Prime Minster Howard (it isn’t over), Bolt called modest Victorians ingrates for not appreciating they are as well off as $4,000 plus a week Andrew “Mr. Ethanol Man” Bolt and so, serfs, vote for Peter Costello.

Good one Andrew Bolt

You single-handedly destroyed tens of thousands of Liberal Party votes with that single callous remark alone, and it isn’t the only one you have made.

I know, Des Moore, Ray Evans, Hugh Morgan, David and Rod Kemp are Andrew Bolt’s ‘economics advisers’. His number one economics adviser and column script-writer, however, is Michael Kroger with input from Peter Costello.

There it is, no brains, no guts.

Oh, Andrew Bolt did fly cover for Michael Kroger and Peter Costello in their attempt to oust Howard to make Costello another unelected Prime Minster. He does use his column as a propaganda sheet for food production destroying ethanol scams and nuclear energy interests, who are keen to have efficient coal based energy destroyed with carbon taxes.This is real objective, courageous journalism.

That Costello Prime Minister would have issued into a greater slaughter in the 2007 election Andrew Bolt didn’t mention in his columns. Taken all together, “inconvenient facts” tend to be inconvenient when they are inconvenient.

Tim Blair and Andrew Bolt sticking their tongues out at fifth columnists over distorting and suppressing facts in the media is really funny.  I just wouldn’t like to see these two try to attack the hard Left for lying. Blair and Bolt would manage to thoroughly discredit another solid case. Damn, Bolt did, viz viscount Monckton.

Does Andrew Bolt realise that he did no damage at all to The Age’s character assassination. That, his childish whine, ‘they hurt him’, does make Monckton look a ‘way out, over the top, fringe infesting, precious sook’.

Well, Senator Baranby Joyce, in addition to fifth columnists all around Australia, you have found another ally, Andrew Bolt. Splendid, simply spiffing. With the rest of the Right and their ‘think tanks’ -IPA, CIS, HR Nicholls Society, Quadrant Magazine:

You know folks, while the Wermacht was crippled by the Nazi regime, at least in WWII they still had a fighting chance on the battlefield. I’m bloody envious.

South Australian State Parliament ‘passed’ new ‘laws’ criminalising free speech

Just caught snatch of it on the radio. From what has been described, this is more draconian than the anti-free speech, hollow ‘laws’ of Victoria.

Where were the “Right”, Federal and State?

No-where, and stone cold silent. Again, the IPA and the rest of their ‘think tanks’ cowered in their bunkers, while churning out more garbage by the truckload.

Tony Abbott doesn’t ‘think’ inalienable rights are being usurped. Mind, he can’t see it at all. Or, perhaps he does, for that is what his carbon tax scheme involves too.

To repeat for the umpteenth time,  the Right has shown support for theft of inalienable rights, including free speech. They are on the record for their support, and then there are their actions.

In Victoria, with a tiny few exceptions, their Parliamentary wing (it sure is not the Liberal Party) supported the Left’s blasphemy ‘Act’ shoulder to shoulder with Steve Bracks and his Cabinet of dribbling idiots. Now South Australians have been sold out by the Right in their State and by the Federal ‘wing’.

Soon there will not be much left for the Right to betray Liberal party members and modest Australians on. Soon, they will have handed the hard Left complete victory.

The Right invoke Sir Robert Menzies. Understandable, this lot are abusing his name in a facile attempt at conveying the impression they are genuine Liberals. Oh, well, these sort of cowards do need the support of some-one greater than they are, even if the  great are dead.

Yes, it is time for civil war, inside the Liberal Party.

Liberal Party News: Sources say, this is war

Against the Right.

Tony Abbott’s carbon tax plan is the final straw. The email inbox is running hot. These are Liberal Party members, Mr Tony Abbott, spat on by the Right.

So much for ‘costless’. Even if ‘carbon reduction’ were needed and could be confined to a mere hike in costs dictated by politicians, what is costless about $3.2 billion? It’s not Abbott, his hard Left fifth columnist pal, Greg Hunt, no-one in Shadow Cabinet and in Cabinet, and no bureaucrat pays for this. It is firms and their employees who would pay for this “merry go round”.

How does Abbott, bye the bye, know it would cost only $3.2 billion? He can’t know. Moreover, sticking to his reductionist stupidity: Each dollar taken by politicians costs roughly - as a reserved estimate, $3, before compounding. That’s the real, minimum ‘tax’. Suddenly, $3.2 billion is all but $10b, before forgone compounding. But this genius would say, it’s better than ‘Rudd’s $40 billion times 3′.

But Abbott is actually proposing a carbon tax. He’s bent on the destruction of capital. Indeed, Abbott gives the game away overtly in one telling statement:

“Businesses that emit above their business-as-usual levels will incur a financial penalty,” he said.”

Oh, and what on earth does this developmentally arrested half-wit, and the rest of the right who also use it, mean by ‘business as usual’. There is no such ruddy thing.

What a statement - “if carbon tax doesn’t kill them, we’ll destroy them anyway”. If they don’t do as Abbott and Greg Hunt, with the support of Michael Kroger clones and his ex Helen Kroger, dictate, they will destroy even more of a firm’s capital.  Furthermore, in view of his next statement, it makes Abbott a liar in another way:

“Mr Abbott stressed his proposal was a market-based system based on rewards, not penalties.”

Come again, Abbott? If Mr. Entrepreneur doesn’t obey what is totalitarian in force:

You, Abbott, will seize that man, charge him, convict him and also swipe massive amounts of capital out of the firm, punishing investors, employees, and customers, immiserating them all. That’s your policy too, and not just Rudd’s.

Either way, Tony Abbott and Greg Hunt get to destroy firms and their investors and employees, mere ants to be squashed at whim and this is central to the Right’s contempt for modest, patriotic Australians  - mere ants that can be eradicated when they no longer have any use for the little sodding bastards.

The threat of violence using police state coercion is a bloody big threat. Mind, Abbott and his pals, including Peter Costello, are fond of such measures, since he and they rammed down volumes of them. Peter Costello alone intensified police state powers through the ATO and ACCC.

No free market action threatens violence against any other free man who will not do what someone wants them to do.

Another lie: Abbott calls it a ‘free-market instrument’.

It’s not Australians freely developing them. Abbott is worse than an economic illiterate, but there comes a time when ignorance is not an excuse for what Abbott has set out in  the name of the “Liberal Party of Australia. Therefore, Tony is a cold, hard, bloody treacherous liar who sees nothing wrong, as he made plain in setting out his plan for central planning in his ‘book’, in imposing totalitarianism. His only dispute with Rudd is, who gets to do in Australians.

Tony Abbott, as most of the Right enjoys doing, is strangling the Liberal party to death, He has never worked in enterprise. To this lot, a factory, capital, is a criminal offence spoiling their views of the landscape and thus it be destroyed. This is what Professor Sinclair Davidson and Chris Berg in their IPA masterpiece on manufacturing concluded:

They dismissed at as a mere ‘old folk’s’ hobby, like knitting. If it collapses, no Australian should worry. It will all be OK.

It must be noted that back then, Professor Sinclair Davidson supported carbon taxes. He saw it as the means of introducing a ‘flat tax’. Well, Co2 taxes are “one helluva” flat tax, they flatten all. Recently he has changed his tune. It’s evident why, cowards hide.

Taken with the above, this could be a quote from an official of a fascist regime,

“We will go to the market and say give us your lowest cost environmental improvements and reductions in emissions,” he said.” These involve tremendous burdens that will alone immiserate Australians…”

Someone plant Abbott and Greg Hunt where they belong, in Bob Brown’s vegetable patch in Cuba. (Abbott -”biosequestration, solar energy and additional tree planting.”)

“There can be no cost blow-out in this policy.”

No-one is saying, Tony Abbott, it will necessarily blow out Federal Cabinet’s budget, initially. The trivial detail is, it will destroy modest Australians first.

“We can do it because our system is simple,” Mr Hunt said.

Hunt is a liar, in two details. The fraud they would perpetrate is not simple. Yet, there is some simplicity about it:

The simply stupid, lying thugs who dreamt it up and paving the way for hard left totalitarianism.

This is what Greg Hunt is actually about. Hunt is a reflection of what Michael Kroger is and stands for, an unprincipled, callous parasite advancing those just like himself. Australians can thank Michael for his Clone.

Dead rats smell. You don’t have to follow the stink to find it. The Right in Parliament is the putrefying tail of a carcass, and so is Abbott’s carbon tax policy, and here is the final sealer:

“The cost of the coalition’s policy is based on a carbon price of $15 a tonne.”

I’ve accidentally praised Abbott in the past by calling Abbott ‘a complete idiot’. I’m sorry to have mislead everyone. I lied.

Abbott is an insult to ‘complete idiots’. This moron is so dense, surgeons are using him as a laboratory rat in probing the mystery of walking, freezing cold stiffs and, damn, there are a lot of them in Parliament.

Abbott shows his patriotism:

“Mr Abbott said the coalition’s climate scheme was “quintessentially Australian.”

Opposition Leader Tony Abbott unveils Liberal Climate Change policy, Herald Sun

Another naked lie. Abbott, like Rudd and Wong, are traitors, they are all betraying Australians for a totalitarian scheme that entails economic destruction. Tony Abbott is a traitor to the Liberal Party and Australians. He is no better than the treacherous Left in this respect.

Tony Abott, however, is where he is because of the Right and their stone cold, walking dead ‘think tanks.’

Stay tuned

The genuine Liberal Party is getting ready to simply decamp from under the Right and establish it again minus these mendacious, blood-sucking bastards. It’s simple to do, because:

It’s an association and not a concrete block shackled to an iron mountain.

Yes, the word is hot. The gunpowder and fuses are set. Guyfawkes night the Liberal way.

Kommissar Kemp had best run for cover and bolt himself inside his clubroom the IPA office on Collins Street. Shite, even that dump won’t be safe against Liberal members getting ready for a bit of blood sport called Civil War. Kroger and Kemp can throw in their last line of defence  for a bit of shock absorption, delaying the end by a few seconds - that fatuous ton of lard called Andrew Bolt.

I can’t wait. I want to see the bums blubbing in the gutters of Melbourne where they truly belong. They are not fit to shine the boots of those down on their luck.
