Australia wasting money equipping trucks with cameras.
Not too long ago I mused about this happening one day...and it did.
And they're just getting started. Believe me.
“If the driver sees some inappropriate material go into the truck he
will get out and put a note on the person’s bin and look at ways we can
work together.”
If that does not work residents could lose the right the have a green bin yet they will still pay $80 a year for it."
Lol.
Fuck you, because we say so.
The government isn't interested in working with you. It's interested in you conforming for your own good.
I get that composting, reducing waste and all that is good but that's not the issue. I can get on board with that within reason and without coercion.
However, the issue is the right of citizens to opt out of things they don't want to do. Notice you still have to pay if you want out. That's not right and never will be.
THAT'S what living in freedom means.
The assumption of a liberal is that you must be bludgeoned into conforming, the assumption of a libertarian is that you will see the benefit and conform voluntarily. We should vote accordingly. But we don't, do we?
ReplyDeleteAnd where the liberal is gracious enough to allow free thinkers and individuals to make up their own minds according to their personal circumstances, they will be sure to bludgeon you into conformity should they not like your decision.
ReplyDeleteSee? Win, win!
