A new ‘F’ word?

Dare one think the unpopular thought of a creeping and masked Fascism could be rearing its ugly head – at a noticeably marked pace? It’s the combined and speedy timing that is both telling and revealing. In Australia, we didn’t want poisonous fluoride but that was forced on us anyway.  Amalgamation followed, thereby ‘centralising power’ with better control and less councils. Then carbon tax quickly followed, whereby polluters can simply purchase carbon credits and pollute as much as they like, all around the world.
‘What if’ they control, influence or manage the places who forfeit the carbon credits, making possible the massive dollars could end up back in their own pockets, for example, “give me your carbon credit instead of company X, and I’ll invest in your country to create much needed employment, whereby I’ll reap dollar benefit as well”. Does this not sound feasible? And quite legal. Meanwhile we keep paying our carbon taxes while the polluters pollute all over again? What a fruitless scenario.
Who really pays are middle class working Australians. Wipe us out through weakening taxes (flood, fire and carbon just for starters) and we are left with a two-tier society – rich getting richer and poor getting poorer. Hence by supporting (endless) carbon taxes, could we be supporting our own demise? With so much money involved in world carbon taxes, and Emissions “Trading” Schemes, it could be regarded as foolhardy not to even consider the possibility of an ulterior motive hidden profit agenda difficult, if not impossible, to trace once it leaves a country’s shores. We couldn’t follow our cows, let alone money wired around the globe.
What we need in Australia (and interestingly are never offered, which makes sense when we think why) is a Bill of Rights for the citizens so we have some say in our governance whoever is in power, supplying us with a right to challenge that which we do not want or want to become, for example, weakened targets for ambitious Fascist control. Fifty ‘billion’ dollars was wiped off the Australian Sharemarket last Friday and don’t think further – could there be a connection in an all-over troubled world, and a simultaneous ‘world’ carbon tax? The few well-informed have little doubt.
Whoever is really behind the big carbon push continues to remain well hidden even from the leaders used as world pawns to promote its huge power. It would be difficult and surely mistaken to applaud their compliance.
