Caleb Anderson: The loss of personal sovereignty and the war on common sense

A war has been raging in our universities and institutions for over fifty years. This is a war on common sense, but also on personal sovereignty.

It was interesting to read recent data indicating that approximately 60% of those who enter psychological counselling in the United States exit counselling before the mid-point is reached. I suspect the figure would be largely similar in other Western countries. Approximately 10% complete their therapy. The primary reasons given for non-completion were lack of motivation, and inability to be contacted by the counsellor ... by simply not returning calls.

Gina Rinehart AO: Regarding the election results.

Comment from Mrs. Gina Rinehart AO regarding the election results.

“The left media did a very successful effort, frightening many in the Liberal Party from anything Trump and away from any Trump like policies.

This has been especially obvious this year, with the Liberals instead becoming known as the “me too” party. Trump style “make Australia great” policies via cutting government tape, government bureaucracy and wastage, and hence being able to cut taxes, too scarce in Australia this year to rate a mention.

Anthony Willy: The commoners

To the self-anointed  theorists that is those with an academic qualification in something of no practical use and generally lacking in life experience, the commoners are the deplorables. They cause the lips to curl in the councils of theorists, and the rent seekers sitting around the campfires of the tribalists. This group comprises those who are consumed with theories which balloon into crusades: The current poster children of group are global warming, the raucous denial that sexuality is fixed at birth, co governance and that there are different types of democracy.
