Next Federal Election
Clever country....
Gina Rinehart. Made money using her inheritance. Good on her. But, she wants to pay people (Australian workers) less or import workers from developing nations because they will do it for less. So she can make more money. Doesn't want to give her own children access and control to their own inheritance. Has the cash to grind any legal challenges down. Uses sponsorship as a a coercive tool and for self-aggrandizement. Successful but just a self interested parasite selling off our sovereign wealth.
^^^ & Gina was thanking Santos for everything they have done for Australia.
^^ That Jordies (shortened) clip wasn’t good viewing. Even climate change denialism thrown in by one vested goose.
All within the law.
You kinda have to look at the system.

That was gold hey, thanking the biggest tax/prrt bludgers for their contribution to Australia. Amazing! Pauline & Barnaby at the trough.

That's why the law needs changing, or the tax system needs changing.
Rudd tried with the MRRT. If you put your mind back we had Gina in the back of a Ute in workers clothes saying it will bring down the country with the lnp sprouting all kinds of bullshit from the sidelines, along with the other useful sock puppets. The Propaganda campaign brought down an Australian government which was primarily funded by MCA which is made up of foreign multi national parasitic companies. Have that sink in....
What a different country we would be if we had a system making the mist of our resources starting back in the Howard days where he and Costello pissed our 'Common'wealth away setting up a structural deficit and making way for the housing situation we have today.
Yep Gina is a great Australian!
I guess it's just the old Australian tall poppy syndrome
The reality is Gina is far more successful, richer, smarter and a better business person than any of us, and contributed far more than any of us every will or have to Australia financially/ economically.
If you are unhappy with your life or havent achieved what you want, it's because of your own failings, not Ginas the government or your country.
Nah it’s simple really indo , Gina’s a greedy carnt . Just ask her children . You can make all the excuses you like and just because it’s your opinion indo , doesn’t make it fact . Who else are you going to stick up for ? Clive Palmer ?
Our tall poppy thing comes from our white history of convicts, pioneers, and working class. It has the same effect as say, France, who had to go through a protracted, bloody revolution to overthrow the nobby-muckers who controlled the wealth.. it means we have an inherent understanding that if someone has more than they need, someone has less. And it saves us (for now) from the aggressive capitalism of the US where you have Musks at one end of the economic spectrum and those zombie clips you've watched 20 of at the other. In the US they BELIEVE that if you are rich (and claim to be Godly) you deserve it, and poor people just don't want it enough. That is so fucked up. They get doe-eyed and teary when they see rich people and clap along - give me tall poppy Oz any day. Merry Xmas to you and your family, by the way @indo, been enjoying your posts.
You realise this dickhead just posts this shit to "trigger the wokesters" and you all fall for it every time.
He gets off on it, small things amuse small minds.
Two days posting about the fat fuck billionairess in the bejeweled mu mu's.
Yeah, she's a great Australian and it's all tall poppy syndrome.
Ever listened to the woman? Ever read any of her speeches or opinions?
Ever follow the court case she produced fake witnesses for to try to have Rose Porteus falsely charged?
Ever realise the "bankrupt estate" she inherited was bankrupted by her stripping it's assets while her father was on his death bed denying his probate wishes?
Ever hear or follow the story of how she disinherinted her own children from her father's will?
Ask her dying father, his partners, her ex husband, her children, and the common heritage of all Australians what a cnt she is.
To paraphrase Keating, if there was a university degree for greed, that cunt would get first class honours.
Fuck off idiot.

Such a success she is estranged from her family and would have trouble counting her real friends using her pinky.
But she has more money than she could ever spend. And still wants more more more.
If that's success she can have it.
Good luck to her.
But carry on.....
Don't forget our 'west australian of the year' also 'contributes' 300million dollars to trample over people and country.

She inherited a mine, rail infrastructure and export terminals with ongoing contracts at the beginning of Chinas infrastructure boom. She did a deal with Rio Tinto to ensure her riches, one that she would happily deny the citizens of Australia for their natural finite resources.
But that’s just what I think. ( and what actually happened)
And if you’re too stupid to realise that she’s trying to pay less tax and set the precedent for Australia to be ripped off further by multinational corporations which will directly affect your life, ( less money for social services) and she’s trying her hardest to influence our politicians to achieve that goal then that’s on you!
Indo’s list of 2024 defendants.
1. The state of Israel
2. Bibi Netenyahu
3. Gina
I’m sure I’ve missed a couple but that should get things started.

Define “successful” Indo.
If the payoff of being successful is your own children not wanting to know you well then I’ll happily be the most un-successful prick of all time.
Being financially well off doesn’t equate to being successful for everyone indo.
Edit - I should of read the 10 posts above mine, would of saved me typing it.
An oldie but a goodie .

The problem i see is people just automatically see rich and successful people as villains that are un deserving and in extreme cases call them lazy or dumb etc
Yeah sure many of these people are born into wealth, but lots of people born into wealth blow it too, people like Gina and Musk still turned millions into billions, they are still smart hard working business people.
Greedy yeah thats a fair call, parasites nah thats just bullshit, they are the complete opposite closer to the host than parasite.
Not saying people should look up to them or whatever, but i just find the whole following their every move ready to diss them about nothing just so pointless and brain dead. (but some people seem to thrive on it?)
BTW. I think in many countries if you are poor or come from a poor family, you are destined to be poor it's pretty hard to escape that even just getting a university degree is out of the reach of many.
But not in the West, im sure we all know people that come from poor social economic families and done really well for themselves, and also know others that come from real well off family's and achieved little.
People like those zombies on the streets are there by choice, by bad choices, yeah some come from dysfunctional low social economic family's etc, but many dont, in those interviews some are honest and say they came from a good family upbringing with money etc and just got caught up in the wrong scene or crowd etc
Yeah Cheers Basesix, Merry Christmas to you too.
@ Goofy yeah i get the whole successful thing is subjective, im talking more in a traditional sense, somebody that has a public profile.
Might as well put this up in the politics subforum, to spare the front page. It's 18 months away or so, but here we go.
This is how Dutton wins:
