Not really
At one point I was thinking you may be one of the 1200 people that work in the office of Mr Albanese.

I am a card carrying capitalist, so would not be welcome in the office of Albanese most likely
I don’t think i even really know what that means?Um I think most have you pegged for a cultural Marxist, not an economic one
You need to sit back and take a deep breath, you keep on antagonising people until you get a response.I don’t think i even really know what that means?
On forums you only get little tidbits and sound bites into what people think, and I guess people use their imaginations to fill in the rest of what they believe your character must be, eg they see one opinion and then assume 100 others Incorrectly.
I don’t think i even really know what that means?
As I said, I think you and probably others have built a picture of me in your minds that doesn’t actually represent my real life person, but rather based on assumptions from some of the opinions I have stated.You really don't know what it means? Oh dear. I was just now gonna write a long "thing" but thought better of it. Chardonnay socialist is probably a nice expression that sums up the concept. My small point was basically all high-level ALP politicians are "card carrying capitalists", so that would be no barrier to entry. They have some very healthy property portfolios.
@Value Collector Well put Sir. Obviously you are not Mickey sitting in the chair.As I said, I think you and probably others have built a picture of me in your minds that doesn’t actually represent my real life person, but rather based on assumptions from some of the opinions I have stated.
I think politically I am pretty close to the centre, although I voted liberal my whole life except for the last election people here seem to think I am left wing, yet my own wife accuses me of being to right wing, so that’s got to place me near the centre.
I think it is just my nature to avoid dogma and look at each problem rationally and be willing to change my mind and go against accepted norms that leads people to assume they know my position on 100 topics because I expressed an opinion on 5.

Well this is a public forum, so I assume everyone can see what I am saying, but when I quote another forum member and write a reply I would expect you to know that that reply in particular is in response to what that person said.Surely that proves you never know who is listening in on your private conversations.

Like most 80 year olds, Bob Katter is probably a bit stuck in the past, and like most things it’s a generational thing, the older generation always seem to be upset with progressInteresting snippet in todays news:
Cash should remain king: crossbench
C

By Courtney Gould
Bob Katter was just up in the chamber. He wants the legislation to be passed to preserve the use of cash in Australia.
The independent MP made headlines earlier this year after a cafe in Parliament House rejected his $50 note as payment for lunch.
"The real essence of this bill is do you want your bank manager to decide whether you can buy a loaf of bread or not," he says.
"There is no doubt that we are running … into some sort of dystopian society in which a handful of people control every aspect of our lives."
Katter will be standing up alongside fellow crossbencher Andrew Gee later this morning.
Katter is known for his press conference theatrics, so watch this space!
Cashless society has nothing to do with age. It’s more so of choice and freedom an individual’s right. Given the fact governments are trying to hard to get rid of cash alarm bells should be ringingLike most 80 year olds, Bob Katter is probably a bit stuck in the past, and like most things it’s a generational thing, the older generation always seem to be upset with progress, but the progress happens and generations die out.
Bob was also against same sex marriage, but here we are nearly a decade into same sex marriage and the world didn’t fall apart.
Yes nothing at all to do with age but more a matter of awarenessCashless society has nothing to do with age. It’s more so of choice and freedom an individual’s right. Given the fact governments are trying to hard to get rid of cash alarm bells should be ringing
well i am nearly 70 and a Bob Katter supporter and while the the world hasn't fallen apart ... yetLike most 80 year olds, Bob Katter is probably a bit stuck in the past, and like most things it’s a generational thing, the older generation always seem to be upset with progress, but the progress happens and generations die out.

Please except my apologises I will try to be more careful what I say on your thread.
However if I could say.
Rolling down hill toward a cliff could be seen as progress.

i can see it heading to a very nasty place via a hand-basket ( because ICEs will be banned )
having lived through the drug-crazed sixties/seventies i am now starting to appreciate those days of zombified layabouts compared to the modern-day streets after dark
interesting times ahead ( as the Chinese curse would warn )
It’s actually a lot to do with age, the younger generation uses far less cash than older generations.Cashless society has nothing to do with age. It’s more so of choice and freedom an individual’s right. Given the fact governments are trying to hard to get rid of cash alarm bells should be ringing
