The Neoliberal way to create an economic crisis to make social rights demotion and dismantle public services accept as a necessary evil.
Neoliberals like Morrison, Dutton and Gladys create problems and then offer the solutions.
This method is also called the ′′ problem-reaction-solution.”
They create a problem, a ′′ situation ′′ planned to cause a certain reaction from the public, with the aim that this is the mandate of the measures they want to accept, we are seeing this now this Morrison & @GladysB management of the pandemic, we have seen Dutton’s fake boats.
Another example: letting urban violence intensify or, or organize bloody attacks, with the aim of the public being those requiring security laws and policies to the detriment of freedom.
It's all about manipulating the masses into accepting gov decisions.

My conversation tonight with a former colleague who laughed at me for getting vaccinated.
Colleague- You don’t regret getting vaccinated?
Me - No, I don’t! I felt more relief than anything.
Colleague - I doubt I’d feel relief! You can still get Covid, there is no protection.
Me - Actually there is - you won’t be coffin shopping or ending up with a huge medical bill.
Colleague - Aren’t you worried that you are being tracked?
Me - I’ve been tracked long before Covid. Every time I use my phone number at the supermarket for store discounts - I’m being tracked, profiled and targeted.
@JaneCaro Everything we have been told about public finance over the past 40 years has been a neoliberal con job.
@JaneCaro Australia's political elite can afford to spend far more than they are on public health and education, social housing, scientific research and climate change schemes, while eliminating unemployment.
@JaneCaro Many of the Australia’s problems today (extreme wealth inequality, poorly funded public hospitals and schools, chronic underemployment, stagnant wages) are a consequence of neoliberals way of government financing.
The private-prison industry is extremely opaque — claiming exception from public-record laws, thus providing little useful data and rarely granting access to facilities, so researchers have struggled to make meaningful recommendations.
Additionally, private correctional facilities are not subject to public record laws and don’t have to report how money is being spent, despite the funneling of tax dollars to the businesses to conduct state business.
These facilities also have the ability to accept or decline an offender based on medical conditions and mental health concerns, which drives down costs.
Full employment is not only possible in Australia, it's a moral imperative. Anyone who wants a job should have one.
Australia must prioritise genuine full employment and governments should spend whatever is necessary to achieve it,
no matter the debt or deficit.
The federal government should run a permanent "Job Guarantee" (JG) program to provide a job to everyone who wants one.
It it could be linked to other economic and social programs, climate change and infrastructure projects.
unemployment is socially destructive and wasteful. Full employment" should be a national priority, like it used to be in Australia: between 1945 and 1975,
@abcnews Broken Hill needs the local BH Mayor, to take leadership and hold a urgent council meeting and come up with initiatives for the safety of BH.
We should be testing locals and tourists that are emptying their waste at the tourist and travel centre. BH needs to play its part here and secure anyone that may come to town infectious.
This includes the airport, I am not sure what the planes are doing and are they still landing in Dubbo. We have a number of fly/in and car/in workers. We should be doing testing in BH we aren't.
Morrison is our statue of unempathic neoliberalism - erected by evangelical and corporate Australia to celebrate their victory over compassion, equality and secular humanism.
Neoliberalism in Australia has been implemented by both the major parties. The LNP-LAB Duopoly have used the strategy of Graduation over the last 40 years.
To make an unacceptable measure accepted, you only need to apply it gradually, to dropper, for consecutive years. This is how radically new socioeconomic conditions (neoliberism) were imposed during the decades of the 80 s and 90’s......
