What worries me is the lack of awareness of where the current growth agenda, the influence of multi-national corporations and the financial sector are taking our country. Another big concern is the lack of sympathy for those in real need in our country - the 'me first 'society has replaced the caring society. And of course there are the , all but ignored ( except for the Greens), issues of environmental degradation and climate change. Behind all this is a growing feeling that it is not worth voting at all - by those with most to lose or gain. Democracy is the loser.Bruce Hammondshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07031065790535111400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8438349.post-63852240800541624072014-09-18T03:11:07.204+12:002014-09-18T03:11:07.204+12:00You sure have been thinking Bruce.
