Federal Treasurer Wayne Swann is a racist?
Yes he is. He showed his colours when he announced the Rudd cabinet would seize the private property of Papuans. I am referring to his vicious machinations to stop an Australian company and local landowners proceeding with a mining venture along the Kokoda Trail, PNG. This is apart from the threat he issued against the company, should it proceed.
The venture means not only good, well paid jobs for some of the locals. Since the locals are the landowners of the site, it also involves a very rewarding proft sharing arrangment the company happily, volitionally struck with them. Swann said they the “natives” should, instead, be content to remain bag carriers for spoilt Australian brats, and other thumb-sucking drivellers seeking the ‘oom experience’ to be had, apparently, from walking the Kokoda trail.
‘Walking the Kokoda trail’ made easy be natives, who should be grateful to carry bags. Wayne Swann said ‘ the tourist dollar’ is “sufficient income for them”. They don’t want to remain destitute. Tourism is not investment. They wish to prosper, and this gets up the nostrils of Australian politicians and their ‘watermelon red’ pals the Greens. The monkeys pretending to be Liberal Politicians are, again, noticeable for their silence on Swann’s disgusting action.
Swann went further. He said, they should not only be content to be bag carriers for conceited, delinquents pretending to tap into some mythical beast called a great (Anzac) Spirit, but the Australian Government could pay the PNG Government ‘compensation’. Gee, that would be nice for the bureaucrats and politicians feeding at another hogs’ trough in Port Moresby. It won’t of course be nice for that much abused and fast diminishing rare species Australian taxpayers. As for the local landowners, they can get stuffed, and the officers of the mining company can be thrown into jail should they defy Herr Rudd and his finger puppet Wayne Swann.
What Swann is saying is this: the Australian Government will strip the locals of their property rights, and reduce them to permanent mendicancy, relieved by the nasty job of carrying bags for tourist trash form Australia. Tourist trash that simper about their precious feelings, on returning form PNG, and their great ‘oom experience’. The natives must be ingrates for desiring something better than that.
Yet, that pretty well sums up the history of ‘Aboriginal Policy’ from the 1970’s in Australia. That is, Aborigines have been condemned to eternal mendicancy, in the name of keeping them in their place as ‘noble savages’. It shows, billions of dollars of transfers poured into the great scheme of preserving them as walking archaeological stiffs, with the result of large numbers of them imprisoned in the misery of primitive tribalism, desuetude, squalor, and worse.
Kevin Rudd can shove his ‘Apology’ up a piece of plumbing, for that rests on a pack of lies purveyed as “history”. The policy of reducing the Aborigines to a living hell, though, is something to apologise for. Funny this, because that is what Swann would like to do PNG villagers.
As I said before, I cheered when the locals closed the Kokoda Trail to Australian Tourist trash. They want mine, they want to prosper. Swann is a racist.
