Tonight I saw a terrible news report. It wasn’t the quality of the reporting, this time it was the content.

People lining up for free food. Up to 3,000 families, needing for food lined up over 750 metres. What made it much worse was this even occurs EVERY Friday in Logan, Brisbane.

What astounds me most is: THIS IS AUSTRALIA !

This country has more than enough food production capacity to feed everyone - easily. Don’t try to tell me it’s because of the cost of fuel. That is the biggest load of bullsh*t I have ever heard. It’s time for the food distribution companies to tighten their belts and those of their shareholders rather than the belts of the people who need to eat the food to survive.

We’ve all seen the reports on the markup of food-stuffs from the farmer to the supermarket.
If ever there is an example of the result of a few taking far too much it is Free Food Friday.

The very next news report was the turnout for the Apple iPhone. 300,000 people across this nation lining up for a bloody phone when families are having trouble feeding themselves.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve got nothing against the iphone or Apple for that matter, but the contrast between the two news reports was so great and threw into stark relief what is wrong with the world.

BRING ON THE REVOLUTION!

... it’s time for this madness to stop.
