INJECTED WITH THE GOD MOLECULE

"I would love him on our side. Biometric weapons. We are getting increasingly desperate."
The government's propaganda wing, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, claimed that there were "still tensions in a booming economy". 
No doubt the economy was booming if you were on an ABC salary, courtesy of the taxpayer. They were a solid falanx of the best paid "journalists" in the country, some on salaries almost ten times the average wage. Leftwing to the core. 

It was easy to be leftwing when you were on the government tit. Just look at the nation's cloistered academics.

With few exceptions, the rest of the country's journalists were struggling to pay the bills, like everybody else. 

Apart from odd bubbles fed by escalating real estate prices, there was no flash cash, no aspirational leanings. 
The country had been destroyed by the greed of a few and by the totalitarian instincts of the military mindset, those who really pulled the strings, manipulated social policy, spread their own poison. 
While the parliamentarians, also paid many many times the average salary, debated the expansion of the so-called Basics Card, essentially a method of welfare payment which restricted its use for cash, gambling, alcohol or cigarettes. 
Infantalising the population. Treating them like infants. Aimed specifically at the indigenous population, "the first people's", who the government treated with a profound contempt, more or less confining them to reservations, land rights a trap, remote outposts, denying them the ordinary aspirations of everybody else.
The government had created the problem in the first place with its Nugget Coombs inspired policies leading to remote aboriginal settlements and the notion that aboriginal people were different to everybody else. 
Creating enclaves which were entirely dependent on welfare, "sit down money", and who were constantly told they were special, as all too many of them drank themselves to death in the shambles of what had once been a noble culture. 

The Great White Elder who drove Aboriginal policy from 1979 until the 1990s (he died in 1997) was Nugget Coombs, whose meteoric career in the public service dated back to Curtin, whose preference for socialism was manifest from his earliest days, and whose distaste for Western civilisation, as capitalism triumphed in the West, became increasingly irrational.
The Left policy of separatism based on self-determination, and from self-determination to Aboriginal sovereignty, was based on the belief that all cultures were equally worthy of respect, except for Western culture which was stained by the indelible taint of imperialism, the oppression of women, the exploitation and oppression of native peoples, the pervasive cruelty of capitalism, and so on.
To make this process more credible the policy made it very difficult for Aborigines to do other than sit on their land, communing with nature and performing the ceremonies which were argued by Coombs and his disciples to be essential to the Aborigines’ spiritual and social well-being.

The Basics Card would become standard issue soon enough, not just for The First People educated Australians so desperately liked to emote about, making the central relationship in their life the welfare agency Centrelink, but ultimately millions, as it spread across the housing estates and into everybody's homes.

This was a runaway bureaucracy which had no interest in building independence and initiative in the population. Instead they built reliance and dependence. For the more people who were dependent on them the larger and more powerful they grew. 

"Can I organise deductions for my funeral fund from my pension?" he heard a middle aged woman ask.

That was it, the bleak horizons.

The more lives entirely dependent on the state the better.

Compliance, conformity. 

Let them shut their doors in the evenings, turn on their televisions, pray to their artificial gods. They were easier to manage that way. 

These grotesque people, the nation's politicians, spreading the so-called will of the parliament, were deep inside everybody's life, strutted the stage in the nation's capital, their thoughts and tidy little speeches broadcast on the government channel. 

They were nothing but pustules on the surface of the Deep State. 

There was no pretense that there was any escape. The government was in everybody's life. Everybody's bedroom. 

They certainly didn't want a populace with any self respect.

The country was heading, step by terrible step, for an uprising.

THE BIGGER STORY: 

AUSTRALIANS’ living standards are declining for the first time in a generation.
New Australian National University research for News Corp Australia reveals cost increases have outstripped income gains by 1.4 per cent in the past year and 3.8 per cent since 2013 — a trend not seen since the 1980s.
The slide in living standards is mainly due to the weakest wage growth on record.
In the run up to the global financial crisis, pay rises were typically double the size they are now, said ANU associate professor Ben Phillips, arguably Australia’s foremost expert on movements in living costs.
“What’s changed, in terms of living standards, is wages are no longer growing at 3 or 4 per cent, they are growing at 1 or 2 per cent,” said Mr Phillips, who did the research.
“It’s just nothing like it used to be.”

Australians have endured their longest period of falling living standards in more than a quarter of a century as growth in costs outstripped earnings for the fifth consecutive quarter, leaving households worse off than they were six years ago.
After allowing for inflation, taxes and interest costs, average household incomes dropped 1.6 per cent in the year to September, capping a sustained fall in ­living standards that has not been seen since the 1990-91 recession.
Economists say more than half the cost increases for households are being driven by electricity, rent, health, new housing and tobacco, while modest wage rises are being partially absorbed by workers being pushed into higher tax brackets.
