Come on brah you know that's not true. There are like bi-monthly protests/demonstrations in Melbourne, and Melbourne is the most left wing region in the country. Protests and mass demonstrations are the only way that things actually change. The power of the people and the threat of mass...

^ I do what I want fag, I'm just chipping in my shitty two cents.

Get out of here Phoenix you dirtbag scumfuck Nazi mind-slave corporate tool cuntfucking ass-pirate. Your arbitrary defence of the wealthy elite capitalist scumfucks is abhorrently repulsive.

Capping donations is a good idea. All that unrestricted donations accomplish is greater political influence for the wealthy, and there's more than enough of that. That is not a fucking democracy. A situation whereby political influence is determined by wealth is not a democracy, it's a farcical...

^ Hurp derp the status quo is always right uleh, free trade is in the best interests of our corporate masters so let's all support it!

The free market is a farce, and I think you're exaggerating in your claim that 'most left-wingers will agree that the free-market is basically a good thing'. When/if you head out into the real world of political activism you'll find that free market/free trade and its horrendous proponents (WTO...

THE GREENS More socially progressive than the two main parties, with a focus on environmental protection, but still capitalists. LABOR Right-wing pro-capitalists who, just like every other major party, will support employers over employees when push comes to shove. LIBERAL Right-wing...

^ I am a preservice teacher and have been to quite a few schools. The funding public schools receive is quite a lot less than private schools, and therefore not everyone receives the same education. Welfare is already barely just enough to survive on. I think that large corporations should be...

^ Rofl, I can't even read it anymore, it's such a load of shit. And the reader comments are just so ignorant and asinine.

^ John Howard may have been economically 'successful' but he was still a socially conservative, WorkChoices implementing, anti-refugee cunt.

This isn't true. It is possible for a society to be without the absurdly wealthy but also ensure a good standard of living for everybody. The challenge... is accepted. No, given the parameters you gave, this is not fair. However, you haven't included some external factors. Is the second person...

Lol. Then demonstrate it. Alright. Syndicalism does not require a state for its imposition, as proven by the FNT/CNT in the Spanish civil war. It was in fact the goal of numerous Anarchist collectives, and was implemented and ran by the community, as opposed to a state. Do you want...

^ Rofl, suck my balls you ludicrously idiotic conservatard.

haha

^ Hurr durr the police protect my interests and aren't generally biased, power hungry beaters of protesters derp

I'm an economic illiterate because I don't consider capitalism in any form to be an ethical system, and that you don't consider Marx/Engels works as economic literature. Right... See the Spanish Civil War, and the FNT/CNT activities in Barcelona to discredit the remainder of what you stated...

If the goal is to eradicate poverty, we need to first eradicate capitalism. The rich profit from the poverty of others. The problem isn't that workers aren't productive - workers produced everything we have, while those that employed them produce nothing. The factor that is largely ignored in...

^ Don't play stupid, you know what I'm saying.

The fact that the US dropped said atomic bombs reflects their world view. Its aggressive foreign policy is not a 'failing' of liberalism, it's a reflection of liberalism and unrestricted greed. I would consider the following as fundamental rights, that the US does not generally permit: Gay...

You are far from right if you think that the US is a free society. In 200 years the United States has killed a tremendous number of people, many of them civilians. It has also dropped two atomic bombs. It has around 1% of its population in prison at any one time, and denies rights that...
