To Asterix and Boss Sam,

I would like to hear your opinions on the 'Middle ground' surely no society can function if it goes fully towards the 'left' or fully towards 'right' . So Liberal vs Conservatism,, what or where is the middle ground where the benefits to most of society is greatest?

Both socialism and capitalism are needed. We need a system that provides incentives to work hard and rewards those who do, yet at the same time, a system that is compassionate enough to lend a helping hand when necessary—one that does not cruelly punish those who truly, for legitimate reasons and unjust circumstances, can't work as hard or produce as much. Keep in mind that what affects one citizen ultimately affects all other citizens and one bad apple spoils the bunch. We are all a part of the same team whether we like it or not. So we need to start exercising a more cooperative effort in order for the human race to survive. (written by someone else :biggrin:)

If you lend a helping hand to those who are in need, more and more "needy" people will appear out of the woodwork and the system will end up bankrupt.

People have to learn to stand on their own two feet or perish.

We have covered this ground before. Every system is subject to abuse because it is human nature to play games. It must be fine tuned and welfare cheats like yourself must be caught and punished. Although some will inevitably get off the hook, just as it is impossible to catch all murderers, but it would be silly to ban all knives because of this.

Yeah, what happened to the AUD 30K that the Aussie government gave to you as a new immigrant? Used for entertainment instead of for starting a business which was the purpose of the grant. A shining example of self-reliance indeed. The Aussie government should have let you perished.

This Ass of a Loon is a spineless parasite who relies on all his apple polishers to boost up his reputation. Sinkies are so unlucky to have such a person as a Prime Minister.
