Madison*once wrote*that “The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, may justly be pronounced ‘the very definition of tyranny."
That us why we limit Government by fiscal constraints & a Bill of Rights.
Government can only grow if it takes Rights & Monies from it's People...it starts doing this thru Trojan horse causes- in the electorate (health and safety, children and climate change) and then later by force, when the People no longer have the assets, the arms or the resolve to resist.Comment -

The biggest changes I see is moving more toward the USA style of society than anything else.
I think you under estimate the power compulsory voting brings when it comes to stopping fringe interest groups, like communists, gaining too much control.
I agree there are a lot more rules here, and they are treated more seriously, than is the case in the USA. But if they become too onerous Australians are well known to push back against authority as a group. Our convict roots made us that way and near 100% voter turnout helps it stay that way. It's rarely the same 50% v the other 50% in Australia. When it matters we come together against unfair govt as a cohesive group..Comment -

Who has the better overhead jump serve Djokovic in regular tennis or King Mayan in table tennis 🤔Comment -
Reading right now on the Sydney Morning Herald that a final.decision on Djokovic could come today.Be fitting the same day the draw comes out they would kick him out.Guess we might have an answer by the time we all wake up in the morning in the US.
Definitely would hold off still on any futures betsComment -
Hopefully djokovic is allowed to play and wins it all.Comment -
Most likely he’s going to lose his visas a day before they’re just waiting, Australia’s gonna do it on purposeComment -
Apparently Spanish immigration investigating him for travelling there unvaxed too. On top of Serbia and Australia.
Looking more like he is simply a serial offender who thinks he can ignore the rules of any country..Comment -
Aussie Open Draw postponed…Comment -
Now a German newspaper is claiming they have evidence his alleged positive test from 16th December was a complete fake too.
"Documents provided to court by Djokovic’s lawyers seeking to overturn his 11th-hour **** cancellation revealed that the 34-year-old took a PCR test at 1.05pm on December 16, and returned a positive result seven hours later.But according to an investigation by Der Spiegel, the digital timestamps on Djokovic’s test result – accessed via Serbia’s public central test registry – suggest the test was not from December 16 at all, but rather 2.21pm on December 26."
“That test was apparently meant to prove that Djokovic had since recovered from his Covid-19 illness,” Der Spiegel writes. “According to the documentation presented, it is from the afternoon of December 22 – and the timing of that test is confirmed by the digital timestamp.”
"The Serbian testing system assigns a consecutive identification number to each test. Djokovic’s positive test, allegedly from December 16, is numbered 7371999.
But the number for his negative December 22 test is 50,000 spots lower. Der Spiegel notes that according to Serbian health data, precisely 50,000 tests were performed between December 22 and December 26.
In other words, it appears the negative test was performed prior to the positive test and entered into the database, not the other way around."
In another twist, Der Spiegel reports that “things got strange” when it scanned the QR code linked to Djokovic’s positive December 16 test.
“At 1.19pm on Monday (CET), the result from the scan was ‘Test result Negative’,” the newspaper writes.
“Such a result would have destroyed Djokovic’s case for being allowed into the country. About an hour later, though, at 2.33pm on Monday, a second scan of the QR code returned a different result: ‘Test result Positive.’”
The newspaper said explanations for all these inconsistencies could only be answered “either by Djokovic himself or by Serbian officials”.
“Neither, however, have yet responded to queries sent by Der Spiegel,” it wrote..Comment -
The circus is really in town in Melbourne. Better chance Djoker spends some time in jail than winning an Aussie Open this year.Comment -
Would like to bet 200 betpoints that he will not be deported. Any takers, keyboard warriors?
Comment -
I'll take that bet. That liar is about to get his comeuppance. Can't wait.
The following stipulations.
The bet should be whether he plays or does not play. The word "deported" means...
expel (a foreigner) from a country, typically on the grounds of illegal status or for having committed a crime.
They may not say he committed a crime but basically tell him that he can't play. He may still be allowed to stay in confinement so not really expelled. So, the bet is that he does not play in this tournament.Comment -
and for all you antivax Covidiots. Here's a message from United's CEO. United was losing 1 employee each week to Covid. Since they started requiring vaccines, they have had ZERO hospitalizations and ZERO deaths. Anyone telling you vaccines don't work otherwise is a fukking liar and deserves to die a tragic death.
