SO IS THIS THE START OF THE END ?
.
The rumours is that Peter Thiel has sold all his Nvidia shares, which one in the know would do before the predicted AI bubble collapse.
.
If the multi trillion dollar AI bubble collapses, there will be fallout.
.
Will it implode the housing bubble?

Turnbull : "It's groundhog day. They're sending a message to most Australians that they do not take climate change seriously..
They've got the memory of goldfish and the dining habits of piranhas. They seem... to just keep on making the same mistake again and again"

By dumping net zero, the Liberals have thumbed their noses at voters they need to win

A scathing assessment dispassionately written
By dumping net zero, Liberals are thumbing their noses at voters
The Liberals' decision to walk away from a commitment to net zero is ill-judged and politically dangerous. It’s also unnecessary.

All this hand wringing about the Liberals dropping the net zero by 2050 target.
.
It's quite hilarious.
.
No, it is not going to damage the Australia's reputation.
.
The Libs have to win government to implement this insanity.

And the way they are going, that is never going to happen

How can a modern government not pay its armed forces...

And starve them...

Seems quite dangerous to me...

Things keep going from bad to worse for horses in the racing industry yet the media, politicians and their mates in toxic gambling companies continue to pretend everything is okay. This is a stain on our nation.

Step one: All seven royals ahead of Andrew Windsor in the British Succession tragically die in an "accident".

Step two: hold a referendum asking: "Do you want Randy Andy as your Monarch or do you want a republic ?"

Sadly I fear people would vote for the pedo...

The curent insanity, denial, autocannibalism and self destruction exhibited by the COALition should not be this entertaining.

Having an effective opposition is of profound importance in our system.

The thing that always puzzles me is that I see a large number posts saying the Republicans are fascists but the Democrats are pathetic.

It puzzles me.
There are other options.

USA voters seem to be unable to look past the two party cartel.

I am thinking about the Greg Mandel trilogy (book series by Peter F. Hamilton).
.
Briefly it is about a post-authoritarian world, after a civil war. The deep anger and desire through out society to find and prosecute the officals from ousted junta.
.
So too I think, in a post Trump world.

I love the statement "fresh turmoil in the COALition".

It is symtomatic of fhe failure of the conservative politicians to come to terms with the Australian publics overwhelming rejection.

I am getting really annoyed with bobbleheads saying there is "no silver bullet" answer to the housing crisis.
.
YES THERE IS.
.
BUILD MORE SOCIAL HOUSING.
.
We are in this mess because governments have promoted the Property Ponzi scheme.

We need homes not investments.

So they awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to Venezuela’s opposition leader María Corina Machado.

It's worth noting that Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, Pol Pot and a lot of other arseholes never got the the Nobel.

It seems that being an Authoritarian is not the way.

I am sure back in 1783 there were people saying "there is no future Independent American Republic involving the Sons of Liberty".

They were violent terrorists.

Andrew Hastie has quit the front bench because nasty Sussssan won't let him set be the Liberal spokesperson on immigration policy.
.
Apparently, Hastie wants to emulate the Little-Scottie-From-Marketing tradition of being the minister for everything.

So he has spat his dummy.

Again, why does mainstream media give any airtime to Australian Liberal Party politicians.
.
They are not, by any measure, a viable alternative government.

Why not talk to the "crazy" homeless person who lives under the bridge. They have a far more realistic view of the economy.

The thing that amazes me is that some people are very plain when they sleep but are beautiful when they are awake.

Others look the same awake or asleep.

But some are attractive when they sleep but ugly when awake...

I put it down to personally.
Some people are just horrible people.
