Privatize the ABC ? You have got be joking !

We are so badly educated in this country that neither left nor right knows why it would be wrong to privatize the ABC .
All parties have failed to recognize their addiction to the disease of the century ( Ellul , Whitehead, Huxley) - there proneness to technological fix .

One year we will have business knows best  the next we will have "nature knows best "and Labor will , while the taxes last , pretend that governments do no evil . Note the last one is MOST dangerous as the economy increasingly relies on tax revenue and government funded employment , its very immature , and the lies are deeper .


My post elsewhere .  Don't forget to sing my song at the end.


The ABC, and other media under threat, should be ( and are ) worried because we are not reading the old guard like we used to .We are sourcing things like Newsweekly ,the Spectator, The Outsiders AND the Internet. Its not enough i know - all the more reason to make ABC MORE reliable . 

Change is good-- many ABC limpets may not believe their own "nature knows best " rhetoric but when it comes to them and now, BUT change is necessary to survive. "The Guardian" IMO is no longer guarding - reacting maybe ? 
Probably nothing has done more to make our children overly skeptical than the closet club of paid public servants.Training but not testing in the best way?  Exposure to real professionals -not stars is sorely needed    TV dramas often lack the depth that comes fro exposure/real AUTHORSHIP 

There has never been a better time for outsiders to help in the process of reform . Chestertons /Churchills' great prophetic call to their /our careless friends should be heeded . Corporations can be expected to perform better than mere business models of everything--- . no better point to pay out those unthinking conservatives who think competition knows best .Who dumby proclaim the hell of privatization of wealth 

THose of us who love the independance idea MUST be prepared to say WHERE and WHY .Surely we don't believe the crap that progress is at the end of some self centred self directed review or WORST OF ALL - some gene driven path. 
Relying on Senate hearings is one of Fatima's weak points because philosophy of ( say practical physical science in my case) is all up the big picture thinking creek... and only a few of our puppets get it yet 
We ALL used to believe in precision in decision. Even those who feel their way around are not feeling good -so change is in the air .http://cuttingedgecare.blogspot.com
If you don't see my point,take the ABC's preaching schedules over many years ; alternative lifestyle , health care fixes and water , weather and plastic bag worries and multiply what you now know into yet to be discovered cul de sacs galore . We need real world people reporting ( cf mere dreamers and tech worshipers ) more than ever . There are real risks about ( my work) and addressing them is what will keep the future tied to the ground. Publish a list of good ABC programs.
If you love something you don't just leave it as it is; you want the best for it .you may have to yell or put your response into words .but is silence back the source complicity IYO ? 
. Happy writing and reforming 

This risk  is so bad it should be on ABC church for mention in sermons ....

.. choruses too

SONG for the service  

"We love our ABC ....... tis just thing for me "
for reminding us of true worship   Independence Honesty Virtue

We love our ABC
for reminding us of our proper place  Imageo Deo   


We hate it when they deny it and make self deprecation , denial projection libel slander and sneer their "imageo dopey"

We love our ABC

when confession comes first

Misleading advertising at the ABC -- the huge costs to the People of Australia

Lost causes due the club mentality --E Burke knew that good intentions can lead to greatest evil . Pity the producers at ABCTV , who supposedly studied literature , don't.
Heres a brief list

Here is a brief list .
This is an incomplete list - drawn together in a huury because the reform of the ABC to provide sound reporting should be a priority at the next election ( this note June 2018)

The arty farty lot at ABCTV are prone to pick up incomplete arguments and with the help of the herd drive themselves down a cul de sac.    For a psyches  view of the depth of this disease look up JB Peterson.
The criminal act is not to provide misinformation ( some reporters do that ) the criminal act is not to seek to redress it by reporting stuff we have been sending the ABC for decades .


Raising questions would be Ok, but reigning of us with unreasonable imperatives has been in part,  the ABC's legacy . They turn damage into degradation,  not knowing the différence and not caring to ask US about degrees of resilience.   Thats incompetence in reporting 


1. The creation of water. As a result of the overreliance on Tim Flannery and friends, most States of Australia built desalination  plants that don't now don't do  anything .
2. Carbon Tax . The real cost of energy has gone up considerably over the last few years as a result of distortion forced on the people by the panic merchants and those who would drive us away from burning coal .
3. Damage to the Great Barrier reef .   Richard di Natalie is prepared to sacrifice his reputation on his worry t that OUR actions are damaging the reef . If its not that the water is getting hotter its pollution  from Queensland land - or something else  . As with all the other lost causes ABCTV does its weekly ritual of providing a story that supports the cause .a fact sheet that fits ;  even though as we who have studied these things know,   reefs need fertilization. We and Darwin know a little bit about  how much , they have no idea
3. Incontrovertible evidence that Veganism will save the planet .eg  Julia Beard's panel  on Thedrum--competent practical  science people as usual were not present .
  As with the the earlier causes,  the ABC lists reports week after week which support the idea that we are raping cows for milk and so on . The end result of this movement has yet to be seen.
