    Left wing media and its affect on the upcoming election.

    The media as a whole has a left wing bias. This is not debateable and i do not want to debate the validity of this statement. I acknowledge that the bias of educated factual news sources is negligible but the truth is that people are stupid and people watch A Current Affair. I wonder then, how...

    Where do you sit on the Political Compass?

    Yes, but i would prefer relative poverty to poverty. As different to Taco who wishes the poor to live in absolute poverty (i.e. can't afford shelter, water, food, clothing) as long as the rich are also reasonably poor. Taco, i challenge you to answer this question. Imagine two people: one...

    If you were voted PM how would you reform....

    Re-institute the feudal system of property ownership. Seriously though, i'm reasonably happy with the nature of Australian politics at the moment, Howard left us in good stead and with the exception of the stimulus packages Rudd has been less of a trainwreck than i'd expect from an ALP commie...

    Prospects in private practice law after an ANU degree?

    So i'm currently doing year 12 and interested in the fields of Commerce (Accounting) and Law, although to be honest i'm not at all sure of exactly what area of commerce or law (i've only really experienced accounting and economics in terms of areas of commerce and i enjoyed accounting.)
