Pork

It’s no surprise that two political parties that develop policies by estimating their impact on the same voter intentions end up with tied number of seats in an election.

Since this gives the independent seats a great pork barrelling opportunity, the rest of the country will catch on quickly. 

My prediction, by the next election in twelve months time, we’ll have a parliament of mostly independents.

Whoever thought local representation at the federal level was a good idea? 

Doomed to lead to pork that is.

Even state level representation is a silly idea.

As is representive democracy.

Ditto this blog entry.

Forget I said anything.
