Upon seeing an add for food you immediately want to eat.
Wouldn't it be better to just let people choose...
Can we ban abortion and save a life or is that too much logic?
Fat people eat for 2 people. Causing 2X - 3X the greenhouse gasses. While asking for more government support from taxpayers. Fat people eat to excess. Ask the ancient Romans. You can't, they destroyed themselves via orgies, overeating, & indulging in their pleasures.
I lost 70kg dumping sugar and most pre packaged foods. Sugar I killing a nation. But the Liberal party won't act because the National party sits in sugar producing seats.
Geez, talk about taking away the simple pleasures 😞
Why 9 pm?
When are we gonna stop making excuses for everything? What happened to personal responsibility?
It’s nanny statism at its worst TBQFHWY

Australia has 'revolutionised its position on China' by 'siding with the US' | Sky News AustraliaRMIT Professor Joe Siracusa says Australia has “revolutionised its position on China” as it moves to reject Beijing’s maritime claims in the South China Sea. \n\nAustralia has claimed China’s actions, which include constructing artificial islands and military bases in the strategic waterway, were inconsistent with the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea and therefore invalid. \n\nMr Siracusa told Sky News the nation had in the past “taken a position but not a side”. \n\n “This time Australia has taken a position and a side, it’s taken the side of the United States,” he said. \n\n“So China sees Australia march right behind the US in lock step. \n\n“Someone from China, in the foreign ministry, said yesterday there’s very little Australia can do to repair the damage so I think that’s absolutely correct.” \n\nImage: AP Actually, all Australia has done is call China out for its illegal activities. Fvck China Hell ya! What’s next for the Chinese, the Great Barrief Reef? F them, as simple as that. The CCP can go and F themselves

Australia cannot 'tax itself' out of recession | Sky News AustraliaBusiness Council of Australia CEO Jennifer Westacott says Australia needs to embark upon landmark productivity reforms in order to revive the nation's struggling economy.\n\nTreasurer Josh Frydenberg announced last week the nation’s gross debt was forecasted to hit $851.9 billion with this year’s budget deficit expected to reach $184.5 billion.\n\nThe government is working with national unions in order to help businesses cope when the JobKeeper criteria changes in September. \n\nFrom September 28, to be eligible for JobKeeper 2.0, businesses with an aggregate turnover below $1 billion will have to prove they have had a 30 per cent decline in revenue over the June and September quarters.\n\nSome businesses have raised concerns they will go under if they are forced to reinstate their staff on full-time hours.\n\nMs Westacott told Sky News the government needs to help empower businesses in order to lift Australia out of recession.\n\n“You can’t tax and spend our way out of this,” she said.\n\n“We have to open up activity in the economy which means we have to get the health management right.\n\n“It’s also about starting to build the growth agenda and that’s by encouraging business investment which of course has collapsed in the figures we saw this week.\n\n“I can’t emphasize enough how much we have to stay the course on opening activity up in the economy because the alternative will be very severe unemployment going forward.” \n\nImage: Getty \n\n\n 😂 The problem with modern capitalism is you end up running out of other peoples money to bail out the private sector.
