Whatever your political views we should all be very thankful in this time for our public health system. It will be stretched in the coming weeks and months, perhaps to almost breaking point, but I am so glad we have it.
You can’t steal something that someone doesn’t have. You aren’t a part owner of untouched wilderness, or lands unknown. It is the people that employ hard work and initiative to develop a resource that are the owners.What a load of rubbish.
They are denying others the ability to use what was common property, "unclaimed property" is just an excuse for theft. Claiming common property as exclusively one's own is theft no matter how you dress it up. Then when you use that property to provide a choice of slave masters to the rest of the people apparently this is libertarianism.
They can bear the fruits of their work, but not the raw materials.
How is denying the right of others to what was, up to that point, common property, not coercive when others may also be relying on the very same common property for their livelihood?
Also, you do realise that under feudalism, when this supposed "original appropriation" occurred, there was no land without its Lord. Nothing to do with mixing labour with "unclaimed" property, all to do with aristocratic power and seizure of what was common property.
Again I ask: if you fish in a river, do you then own the river?

Agree. A user pay system where the poor can't afford to be tested or treated is in everyones interest.Speak for yourself.
It would mean people like you would have to lift a finger and take some responsibility instead of taking the easy “government will deal with it” option. Not favoured by the virtue signalling majority.Agree. A user pay system where the poor can't afford to be tested or treated is in everyones interest.
Just as those who lose their jobs should be evicted and starve.
That is the Australia I want to live in. (If we have to have countries at all.)
'People like me'? Love it.It would mean people like you would have to lift a finger and take some responsibility instead of taking the easy “government will deal with it” option. Not favoured by the virtue signalling majority.
Yeah people like you that look to the government to solve all your problems.'People like me'? Love it.
Our supermarkets are proof of how people will deal with this without guidance, and laws.
Geez....0.25%.
Never thought it would drop this low, and will be interesting to see if the 4 fat cats lower their rate from here.
That's gunna be a flaming circus. Got a wedding next weekend n the poor couple n their families have had to trim the crap out of their reception guest list. Somehow I've managed to miss the cull, so it's off up country for the weekend n as much of a *smile* up as one can manage. Better make sure I don't confuse the rubbing alcohol for hand washing with the sippin alcohol for flavour.Mr Morrison confirmed the national cabinet had agreed to a cap of one person per four square metres for indoor gatherings, including in pubs, cafes and restaurants, as was recommended by Australia's chief medical officers last week.
Bring your ruler...
I said should. I’d you don’t want to be thankful for the public health system then if you get COVID you can stay away if you like.Speak for yourself.

Everything is built on the credit system. Without it everything collapses.

Bloody *smile* shelf strippin panic buyers. Lucky for me I generally buy in bulk, I'll just smuggle in a sippin or two brought from home.Haven’t you heard, there will be no alcohol due to the current crisis

My sister handed over 2 slabs of Corona Extra back in January (for a party that didn't go ahead). Had a couple tonight already. I wonder how the Mexicans are going with this.Haven’t you heard, there will be no alcohol due to the current crisis
If your political views are against public health, than one should still be thankful for public health?I said should. I’d you don’t want to be thankful for the public health system then if you get COVID you can stay away if you like.
You can’t steal something that someone doesn’t have. You aren’t a part owner of untouched wilderness, or lands unknown. It is the people that employ hard work and initiative to develop a resource that are the owners.
Under your theory if someone wanted to claim a land title and develop a resource they would have to get the permission of every single person alive and yet to be born. Completely untenable. How can anyone bear the fruit of their hard work if someone else can come along and disagree that a section of land should be used to grow wheat instead of oats? There is no sensible way under your theory to decide the matter.
You do realise that under Feudalism that land theft happened on a grand scale? The tillers of the land were the land owners, they had their property rights trampled upon.
You own the section of river that you have established as your fishing area. You can’t claim parts of the river that you are not mixing your labour with.
