I reckon the gates of Clownworld subtly but officially opened for business the day local councils made rules that, and fines, for people who ‘must’ carry around poop bags and ‘must’ pick up their dogs’ shit.

Let the dog shit. Avoid stepping in doggy doo. All this helps you. Tonz of knitwitz have lots their marbles.

Good on all the switched on people who [since way back when Howard and Murdoch dismantled the workers unions and bought in EBA’s] took advantage of well paid construction work in whatever form -- they are the biggest tax payers in Australian society.
