Is this affiliated to the Facebook group "f*** Rudd, f*** Australian Internet Censorship!"?


If not, I really think you should get those guys on board, they've got some good ideas

I like Rudd, he gives me free money (speaking of which he better pay up soon), but this internet censorship thing could be a bit gay.

I have to admit I know basically nothing about the proposal however the word censorship normally spells trouble.

4 Hours on a Saturday? Geez I care, but 4 hours worth of care? Thats a bit of a Stretch.

Hope a lot of people care though, but from my circle of friends and family only 2 people thinks it would be a good idea. Both Primary School teachers.

f*** Rudd. He is such a phony. I lmao with the Rudd Kyoto Protocol joke pen:

"A replica of the pen with which Kevin Rudd signed the Kyoto Protocol and single-handedly saved the planet."

If Rudd touches our internet, I can't be held responsible for what I'm gonna do.

Even if Rudd was a sensible man and truly used this to stop paedos, it only takes a few years and one a****** senator to decide to use the technology for something else like banning websites about contraception or euthanasia or some other s*** old people get flustered over. Eventually there could be some diplomacy or war issue and suddenly all the websites of a certain few countries are banned. Even to a more subtle extent this could be unfair - look at what happens when you search "Tiananmen Square" on the Chinese Google (pretty flowers and happy birds) - nothing like the results you get on international google sites (war tanks, dead bodies).

Will there be petitions and stuff there?
I have an exam the following week, but I care enough to waste an hour. I could sign petitions and s*** and be on my way.

Here maybe hope yet:

Greens oppose Conroy's internet filter


The government needs the support of all seven crossbench senators — including the five Greens — to have draft laws pass parliament against coalition opposition.

Petrol prices always come down around christmas, same happened last year also. Any economic genious' want to explain why?

My Super is ok, it just ate into the 4.5k of free money i got from the government for super-cocontrib - so no skin off my back!

Anybody who is going to be working for the next 10 (maybe even as short as 5) years is better off with the market as it is at the moment anyway.
You're still putting the same (maybe more) money into it as you were before. But now you're getting more shares for the same amount of money.

So when it does bounce back (which it will given time) instead of having 5000 shares in your super, you'll have 10,000.
Really good time to be a young/mid worker with a secure job.

Helping with my house too, interest has dropped so my minimum payments have dropped, so the extra money I can put in has an even greater efffect.

I don't blame Kevin Rudd for the current economic condition. This is a tsunami far bigger than Australia. We are just an esky lid on the crest.

I do think his negligent conduct with such actions as the $10.5 billion sugar hit and the unlimited bank guarantee, are acts of fiscal and monetary vandalism, and he has been hindering not helping our country's cause.

Before Kevin Rudd $20b surplus. After Kevin Rudd $5b (although I think a deficit is more likely).

Only good thing about this crisis is the petrol prices leaving my wallet fat. Everything thats made overseas costs a f***load.
