(1)Australia has an unusual/unique parliamentary system reflecting history of their creation.

There are no recognized "natural" or inherent rights in Australia. All rights are granted by a governmental system structured around extreme democracy. That's why voting is mandated.
(2)It took me a while to figure out why the Australian people would be so compliant toward what looks like government authoritarianism.

After research, I understand it now.
(3) All rules, laws, regulations, etc. come from the top down. They are proposed by command and control and then approved by the people in mandatory elections where participation is not optional.
(4) With that level of approval, the government then carries an approach of dictation.

Govt tells the citizens how to comply with the rules the command and control initiate on behalf of the citizens who approved the command and control decision-making.
(5) Rights to activity are granted by the rulers.

The Australian mindset is one of social compliance with the requirements determined by the rulers. After all, the majority approved of the rulers, ergo the rules must be adhered.
(6) In part this outlook comes from a history as a penal colony, where the "jailers" evolved to the "rulers" and the citizens are the prisoners voting for the rules of their confinement.

It's a modern progression of a historical connection.
(7) When debating the framework of government, the founding fathers of the U.S. viewed this form of democracy as worse than a monarchy.

But extreme democracy is what exists in Australia.
(8) This outlook flows down to the way the police view the citizens. Aggressive policing is an outcome of a heavy handed government, granted massive authority to enforce rules, by any means necessary, approved by the rulers - as requested by the ruled majority.
(9) The role of the citizen in Australia is to comply with the rules of the state.

The individual citizen has no inherent or natural rights.

It takes a nation-wide, or state-wide, majority to vote on a referendum for each right a citizen would like to have.
(10) The role of the government in Australia is to enforce the rules of the majority. They have a wide latitude, because the citizen has no rights to claim a grievance.

Nothing makes my blood pressure rise as much as these manipulative econ creeps. Go ahead and complain about corporate food profiteering..... then f**king explain to me why you raise foodstamp/snap reimbursement rates to fatten their f**king corp bottom line.
(2) This is the @BrianDeeseNEC grocery price equivalent of Jonathan Gruber saying "we rely upon the stupidity of the American voter", during Obamacare....
(3) Part of the lobbying in the food industry by BigAg multinationals is to advocate for the expansion of U.S. taxpayer benefits to underwrite the costs of the domestic food products they control.

(1) Lloyd Austin

Lloyd Austin is the U.S. Secretary of Defense. Lloyd Austin is responsible for the U.S. military and pentagon response to the crisis in Afghanistan.
(2) Secretary Austin is the woke, highly political hire within the Biden administration, and it is his responsibility to weaken the U.S. military and infect the institution through a process of advanced cultural Marxism (political correctness).
(3) The collapse of security and stability within Afghanistan is ultimately a distraction from the purpose of Lloyd Austin. From the perspective of international security and advanced, strategic U.S. military operations, this is not his forte’.

(1) Anthony Blinken

The modern U.S. State Dept is an independent, bureaucratic, and massive foreign policy institution that does not accept any oversight.
(2) The DoS are able to accomplish their independent position by partnering with intelligence agencies. The Dept of State use the U.S. Intelligence Branch as a weapon against any individual or entity who would attempt oversight.
(3) When a Secretary of State is appointed to the role as head of the agency, the arbitrary nature of the institution around them is accepted.

August 12th ..."BigAg has likely already made deals for increases in government welfare payments (EBT and Foodstamps, WIC etc.)."...

Now today 👇👇
(2)Couple of points for those following along....

(a) Notice how this 25% increase in food assistance is directly opposite of the administration claim that "inflation is temporary and transitional".
(3) Again underlying the specific point...

... "In order for ideological leftists (Alinsky types) to continue advancing their ideological belief systems they have to pretend not to know things"...

That truism is the origin of their hypocrisy.

(1) I wish to take a little walk with you and talk, deliberately, about this...
(2) Something shifted after the election of Barack H Obama in 2008. Something subtle that was quietly taking place in the background that surfaced just slow enough so that most people didn't notice.
(3) But before getting to that, let's first just look at the DHS announcement as presented in their words.
