Too much shit to do is the problem.

Of course, the great bulk of the $9 billion in handouts authorised by the bill is being thrown at the beggar state and territory governments—in particular those in Tasmania and South Australia. Regardless of which major party is in power, these beggar governments continue to hold back the prosperity of the people they are supposed to represent. These beggar governments only see the upside of preventing development, of smothering their small businesses in red tape and of making fanciful commitments to renewable energy. They should feel the downside of more expensive energy, fewer bustling small businesses and fewer jobs. But, for these beggar governments, such a downside is merely a recipe for more and more compensation from taxpayers in the rest of the Federation.

I’ve been thinking of starting my own podcast, inspired by the Nine PM Edicts, much the same way that Fraser Anning’s senatorial career is inspired by the first two seasons of I Dream Of Jeannie and the sex scene in Joyce’s Portrait Of The Artist. The question I couldn’t answer was: what should I call it. Mr Fryer has now answered this: I shall call it In My Anecdotage. Thank you, Mr Fyer.
Carry on.
