It’s starting to feel like the Republican Party and their pedophile leaders are holding these hearings and releasing information NOT for transparency purposes but to show the victims and the world that they are invincible and unstoppable.

Just had a flashback to the pubs in Nth Melb in the early 80s. Each week night a different vendor would call around with a basket of wares. Jeans,T's and shirts, chickens and eggs, great cheeses, superb smallgoods, and on Fridays, the Sally Annes would call round selling you salvation for a dollar.

If predictions of an El Niño and even hotter summer over 26/27 comes to pass, I may just have to roll up my swag and head to Tasmania as a climate refugee.

In the early 70's we looking towards an egalitarian multicultural Australia.
What changed?
Thanks to Unions, wages rose. Couples inherited parents' properties. Tax deductions and capitalism moved people to the right. Labor followed chasing the "middle ground" while people abandoned the unions.
