"It's a mystery..."

Scoobydoo's famous line enters the world of philosophy via Roger Scruton... or vice versa.

Two weeks after delivering a budget seeking to push the cost burden onto students, a young Joe Hockey has emerged as the unlikely former leader of student protests against similar reforms.

As usual Annabel is proven wrong by the increased acidity and aggressive dorkiness of the repulsive shocks jocks, the nasty spruikers and the mephitic writers for the merde-och press and other sewer outlets...

A few days ago she wrote something that could have been funny if it was not tragic:

As dawn broke over Australia's new federal budget on Wednesday, it found some interest groups reeling at the new and straitened circumstances under which they will henceforth be obliged to live.

One of the main distraction about democracy is that "we" (not me) tend to equated it with capitalism. Thus when one looks at "western" charts where "democracy" is supposed to exist, one can see it's showing exclusively countries where capitalistic exploitation is king... 

In fact most of the capital system now survive on patent lies, as we've witnessed with the Australian elections. Same in the USA where the illusion of democracy is framed by a duopoly of honest ideals promoted by dishonest politicians in honour of a disgusting dollar.

She ends up with a half-baked advice from her celeb kitchen of cracker pollies...:
