SECTION FOUR, PART FOURTEEN

You Wonder, Why? Once again i am compelled to write. No point going over everything that has happened over the last month apart from key issues. Barry' state of the union address doesn't arrest his slide in popularity. My observation is precisely from the Australian context. Julia lost because she had not seen to right the wrongs of the arbitrary bias in favour of big business from 2007-2008. The public were gipped, because significant favours were doled out, and never paid back. I have mentioned Maurice Neumann before. Presiding over an apoplectic ASX , with mates dying everywhere under margin calls, they entreaty the government ( under some spurious economic calamity argument) to introduce short selling suspensions to save their mate's money. Forget the cash splash, and julia's stupid twisting of policies to help her union mates at latter times, the public never quite trusted julia's judgement again. And she paid the price. Barry's got the same problem. With the increasing in income inequality in the US, the general public seems to have an uneasy feeling about the justice of policies since 2008, and agin it shows. Doesn't matter that Barry tries social policies...there is the lingering doubt that his judgemnt has left the rich just too well off, and the general population paying. The public is right. Too few were punished. Maurice has attacked the unions, he has now attacked the ABC. Either Tony doesn't feel he carries the gravitas to be a national spokesperson( he isn't anyway), but he must get some broken down business hack, of dubious background and heritage after the 2007/2008/2009 fiascos to try to man up for him. What appalling leadership to use unelected, and unelectable, hacks to try to appear to prove public solidarity on policies. What an appalling way to treat both the population, and the concept of policy consensus building. Julia was inferior, and so to is tony. Barry is inferior, bit so too was Dubya. Cameron/brown/blair. Any country, any leader. I don't know what happened to the air in 2007/2008/2009. But all countries, everywhere, have very poor leadership. Man the barricades, i feel some Napoleon, somewhere, lurks.
