Comment on Albanese is crying poor, but we’re losing billions a year from untaxed gas

Lack of choice … and lack of anyone with the balls to govern for the benefit of the majority, and our futures … that’s the problem!
The process (voting) may be sound, but it’s still, shit in, shit out.

I’m just saying, there are options. Quite a decent amount really, by international standards. And some are pretty decent, just none perfect.
I just think the notion that there are no options of political candidates who would tax the oligarchs, isn’t true.
You asked what party could you vote for to tax them? I provided them. You said the preferences flow to Labor. And I said, well yeah, that’s the way the system works!
I feel like you’re shifting the goal posts here.
I do agree with you that things are largely cooked, though, and share your frustration that we don’t just grow some balls and tax companies and individuals like we once did.
I too look forward to a future where the people treat the government as their collective will, and not a force to be resisted and mistrusted, so we can get on with improving the material lives of all of us.
Hope this message finds you at the end of a relaxing weekend, if you had the pleasure of having it off work.
