The Yanks are cooked (and cooking the rest of us) - The Shot
American authoritarianism is an echo of tyrants’ past and its own unique perversion: shrouded in goldleaf, ski masks, and utter bullshit.

This was the same bloke claiming he could produce hydrogen from coal with zero emissions. Bit of a back story included; former Rhodesian soldier, then mercenary, later found God. In summary, he's delusional.

Australia needs more psychologists - and more critical thinkers. So why make those subjects four times more expensive than Latin or Greek?

One uni subject costs $578, the other $2124. What would the average student choose?
I started an arts course this year only to find my choice of subjects meant I would pay as little as $14,000 or as much as $50,000 for my degree. Bizarre cost discrepancies are rife.
