Destroyed capital is unrecoverable

Don Smallgoods, a long standing Australian manufacturer, has just now announced it is closing two plants, the Altona factory in Victoria and the W.A. Spearwood plant. The explanation given is the Company has been sustaining losses over the last few years, and the cause is that it is not economic to produce in Australia.

Destroyed capital is unrecoverable. Existing regulations already wipe out capital, and this is before Co2 taxation is imposed. Some other famous companies that have shutdown production in Australia because of the same reasons include:

ICI, Hoechst, both in the late 1980’s. Heinz - mid 1990s. BHP shutdown loss making operations in the 1990’s.

Loss-making is capital liquidation. ICI and Hoechst were blunt with Prime Minister Hawke that the reason for why their Australians firms were finished; taxation of capital. They told him and Keating, “Laissez faire”, get off our backs or we have no alternative but close down. Hawke and Keating ignored this warning and wiped out multi-billions of dollar in production. Not that the “Right” are any better.

Costello alone, through the ATO, didn’t get off the backs of investors and entrepeneurs. He multiplied the burdens and intensified those already in place when he was elevated Treasurer.

The burden is two-fold. Regulation, and direct taxation.

Regulation is compromised of two destructive aspects. It is also a tax. It also saps, cripples and then completely blows apart the capacity of entrepeneurs to run firms successfully. The IPA and CIS failed the Liberal Party in this too, because of their defective economics - oh alright, atrociously bad economics, and compounded by their overall incompetence. Their treatment of regulation consequently reduces to, ’so long as it is the right sort of regulation, it is good and even necessary’.

Australians’ living standards, income, are being greatly reduced. Try: sliced and diced, then fried into cinders. There are no incomes without capital, and they cannot be increased without capital accumulation.

Before Co2 taxation, the Statists in the Liberal Party and those in the ALP have accomplished compulsory capital demolition. Then, one never entertained the daft notion they have brains. A single, mouldy peanut they are all hooked into, yes, but even a sliver of a brain? Sir, not even a lonely neuron.

We have the explanation as to why it is not economic for the Don Smallgoods firms to produce in Australia.

In the meantime, the heads of the company are burning the candle into the small hours trying to discover whether they can direct capital into production of other goods, in rural Victoria. I’m not betting it can be done.

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.

Barnaby Joyce has to get off the Grass or, on the evidence, join a leftoid party

He’s at it again, throwing a Barnaby.

Joyce is opposed to `Govt.’ getting it’s grubby fingers out another run of markets, the medja. He seems to be echoing the Fat Aunty Bolshevik Collective - Wombat Friends of ABC-SBS, Moa’s toilet paper the Age, SMH and other uglies, who owns what will doom the leftoid havens. Ha! They are walking corpses anyway. It hasn’t occurred, Packer and Murdoch have not interfered with the internal conduct of the respective media entities they headed. Some threat Murdoch is, News Corp carries some of the worst leftoid liars and bimbos pretending to be journos to rival the Fairfax stable of useless bums. Barnaby, not alone, can’t get a grip on, market concentration does not decide what is delivered and on what terms.

On the other hand, precisley govt. control through diktat and the extortion racket of licences, and restriction of entry, has resulted , viewrs turning off t.v. sets, readers not buying newspapers, listeners searching for jolly good alternatives such as 3MBS. T.V. is, of course, the worst, with the additional constrictions of the closed union shop - Actors’ Equity and content making the T.V. business a sheer waste of capital. But it amplifies why Newspapers are a waste of money these days. The inmates’ of Mao’s Bum Wipe sabotage of Conrad Blacks’ attempt to convert that toilet rag into a profitable newspaper amplifies why nobody has bothered to enter the market, it’s a socialisto closed doss house of a business.

The ALP-Coalition `all things will be digital’ has only ensured Aussies will still be 50 years behind the Americans. Specifying and dictating what can and can not be done does not result in advances, it kills advance stone bloody dead. One day, perhaps, the Coalition might begin to study some sound economic theory to fid out why. Who remembers, while Americans had been long enjoying it, Aussies could at last enjoy colour t.v. in the 1970’s after the mummers in Canberra had removed their greasey thumbs out of just that, what types of t.v. sets could be sold in Oz.

Barnaby will soon have a nervous breakdown,if he keeps throwing barnabies, sacking good old taxpayers and companies such as Telstra to buy a new dummy every time.

Joyce raises ABC ad concerns
QUEENSLAND Nationals senator Barnaby Joyce said he would have no qualms in crossing the floor to vote against proposed changes to the ABC’s charter if there was grass roots concern about them in his state.

What’s this great change? The Cabinet at last is too unburden that shletered wombat home for commies? No. Perhaps demand the ABC begins to fulfil the charter of functions it was set for? No.

Communications Minister Senator Helen Coonan said today the Federal Government would consider allowing advertising on the national broadcaster, something it has never done.

Over this, the Barnaby is foaming and frothing at the mouth and, running around a plastic totem pole flourishing his play pen authentic toy Indian hatchet, howling terrifying howls. Never before? Well, he must be a loony to do that and not least because of, the ABC carries advertising, oh mostly about itself and it’s dropkick progoms programmes. Nash must be sucking on the same grass filled bong Barnaby uses ( see below )

Senator Nash said the proposal for ads on the ABC was a significant shift and that too needed to be assessed by regional communities.

The next quote confirms how demented the B. is:

“We always rely on the ABC to be the impartial arbiter ? well it’s supposed to be ? and of course once you have a number of masters, that means government and also people who want a return on their advertising dollar, we may have a slight conflict of interest,” he said to ABC radio.

What-ever he’s watching, it’s not Fat Aunty Bolshevik Collective, or, he has a liking for the grass:

“The grass roots people, no doubt, will be telling their state members that they’ve got a serious problem with it.”

Barnaby, the Nimbin Brigade have difficulties coming to grips with anything civilised. Mind, as on other matters, others in the Coalition should get off the grass too:

THE ABC could still retain its journalistic integrity and quality of programming with commercial advertising, a Government MP said.

But there should be restrictions on the sort of advertising allowed, said Senator Gary Humphries, secretary of the Coalition’s backbench communications committee.

“It is time to look at advertising on the ABC,” he said on ABC Radio.

“The SBS experience is that you can have advertising without intruding into the quality of viewing, without compromising the journalistic standards of the broadcaster and in a way that is quite tasteful and compatible with the charter of the ABC.”

Humphries, it’s time to do a head count, not many in Oz give a damn if ABC were to be shut down today and, indeed, tjhey’d be thrilled at getting govt. off their necks by the amount of some $billions per annum just for that sacred commie cow. Perhaps Humphries and Barnaby might explain what is impartial about ABC ads for, the Greens, purveyed as `impartial’, `tasteful’ material, and the awesome dunderheaded duo might care to look up ABC’s website and ponder, for example, it’s free political advertising for Pol Pot’s number one acolyte, Peter Garrett, and other such good for nothing scoundrels.

Humphrey is lunatically silly, and not least because the rubbish the ABC already advertises well breaches his fantasies about `limits’:

Senator Humphries said he was hoping debate on the issue would produce a balanced policy which was carefully framed to protect the limits of advertising on the ABC.

Curious and false choice of word, `protect’, when `restrict’, `control’, `dictate’ are to the mark. Don’t bandy words Humphires, you’re a bloody interfering socialisto who is happy to ensure sacred fat cows inclusive of ABC remain a sapping burden on poor, oppressed, real, taxpayers, another damned Barnaby.

On the other hand, not to be outdone in the Dementia Handicapped Stakes, out comes the ALP stable of dribbling spastics:

But Labor communications spokesman Steven Conroy said the Government should be given a loud raspberry for the suggestion.

“They should be told to go back to the drawing board,” he said.

When you’ve got a $14 billion surplus, there is no need for ads on the ABC.

“There is no need for this. They’ve starved the ABC of funds

Conroy, a `govt.’ `surplus’ is monetry reduction, reduction of fiat money. It’s not, contrary to also Peter Costello, `savings’. Conroy is arguing, Costello hsould increase already hideous levels o govt. consumption. There is more to this grab and spend addiction of the ALp, which one will expand on tomorrow, but Conroy is reflecting Federal ALP policy, and not just for GFat Aunty Bolshevik collective.

Socialism Kills

Socialist schemes always fail, including medical schemes such as Medicare and State Govt. command consumption of hospital services. Despite the repeated increases in medical budgets, 3 years in a row, the waiting queues grow, noting, internal costs spiral virtically with each additional dollar thrown at the schemes. Rationing has been used since the mid 80’s by both State’s Cabintet’s and the Federal Cabinet.

Those engaged in the supply of medical services on the socialist basis do not serve customers, they are working to the central whims of politicians and bureaucrats. One upshot is, the increasing numbers of Doctors who have delcared they would prefer not to perform surgery on some patients in favour of others, yes, discrimination. Those doctors, showing good socialist-totalitarian inclinations would, of course, have to keep their mouths shut in a free market in services.

Things degenerate and, not to put a too fine a point on it, this smacks of an intention to kill patients, usiing the excuse of rationing, to selectively bestow boons per stolen private property by taxes onto selected interests.

Pick on cigs, butt out of IVF, says expert
Janelle Miles
20dec05

DENYING repeat open-heart surgery to smokers who won’t quit would be a fairer way to ration health spending than denying IVF to women in their 40s, an IVF expert says.

IVF Directors’ Group chairman Michael Chapman was commenting on research that showed producing a child through in vitro fertilisation cost about three times more, on average, for women aged 40 or older.
An online article in the Medical Journal of Australia found the average cost of a live birth through non-donor-assisted reproduction was $32,903, compared with $97,884 for women aged 40 or older.

The Stalinist regime of Victoria is making the streets safe only for thugs and fellow commie travellers. Snivelling, drivelling socialistos such as Chapman would not be heard of in a free and thus highly civilised market. He’d be a nobody,. In fact, he is a nobody, just as Bracks, Pike Minstress of `Health’ and all in the cabinet are nobodies, stalinist nobodies.

Socialist medicine, an ugly, damaging scam, run by socialist slobs for the benbfit of socialist slobs, not patients.

Hmm.. I.V.F. - has a lot to do with girls not raising families at their most fecund, into the mid 20’s after which, the capacity drops exponentially away to not far short of zip. Good ol’ real tapxayer is, of course, expected to pay for the malfeasance of the girls and their husbands. No complaints if the services were fee charged, then that is entirely between them and doctors. But, on Mudicare, it is such a wheeze of a scam for both them and the bloody doctors. Dah patients, dah IVF doctors, Chapman and his colleagues, have direct vested interests, they want to grab hold of more of the stolen property thrown down the commie sewer called Medicare.

The Canadian Option

Ever free in stealing private property and building monstrosities and at multiples of the claimed bill, Federation square and the Spencer Street concrete bunker, Commissar Bronwyn Pike, of the bracks Regime has announced a new bulding for the Royal Children’s Hospital. The price tag, she claims, is $1b which is already a sacking of real taxpayers of another $3b. By the time it is finished, something like $3b will be closer to the mark or in real taxing terms a minimum of $9b.

For the commie scheme, what will good old taxpayer be forced to pay for? The Canadian option is a reliable indication. Though it is to do with casinos, the ugly commie casinos built and run by the Canadian commie govt., as opposed to the brigth, pleasing casinos of Las Vegas.

The Dreadful, Dreary, Boring World of Commie Casinos
by Vedran Vuk

If it wasn’t one of the Canadian commie govt’s. casinos, one would have assumed it was a relic of the USSR and `socialist realist’ architecture, if something resembling a prison watch-tower or a tall concrete outdoor loo can be called architecture. For readers unfamilar with the `Federation Square’ and Spencer Street station concrete blobs , you now are, you have a view of them in a nutshell, how ugly they are. Typical of commies, the Bracks Junta belongs to the brutalist school of architecture.

The new building will be consistent with the existing one, which is only 50 years old, and ugly and, yes, built by a socialisto Victorian govt. There is a bright note, though the pleasure is over shadowed by another multibillion act of theft and socialist brutalism, the project is annoying inner city greenies no end, they are crying their furry little rodent firends, possums will be forced out of parkland due to the new building.

Melbourne City Council and park users wanted the hospital built at the Docklands ? one of four options shortlisted.

Readers unfamiliar with joint, Docklands is tower building land, and very breezey as in, stiff winds, avery dangerous proposition for helicopters trying to land, if a pilot were silly or suicidal enough to fly a helicopter into the joint. That.s o.k. , according the inner city, odent hugging pol potians of Council and `park users’, what’s a helicopter lodaded with pilot, nurse, severely injured child (ren) crashing into a building, leading to more death and destruction, perhaps, as they crash into the building, so long as rodents called possums are saved.

It will be the latest and the best, and will last all of 30 to 50 years too. Pikey Wikey flippantly replied, `rebuilding a hospital each generation is just one of those things that occur’. Must by a mysticla divinatory thing, she is after all a Reverendress in the commie occultic assocation called the Uniting Church. So, taxpayers will spend the next 50 years paying the dmaned thing off and , joy, will be made to foot the bill for another outisde brutalist school concrete blob.

It all ties in very well with the already nasty problem, socialist govt. supply of medical services inclusive of hotel services will collapse as it is, this hospital will only add more crushing weight.
