Tony "Jesus didn't say yes to everyone," Abbott.

Since late March when John Brumby announced that water restrictions would be lessened, Melbourne's storage capacity has decreased by 1%. This has happened even before the new stage three restrictions have taken effect. Ads on the radio state that people can now water their gardens on odd days, but should still remember that water is a precious resource. A mixed message is being sent to the public and the Premier should be held to account. The sad reality is that in these modern days, if John Brumby is voted out Ted Ballieu will come in. Is that a really viable alternative? If the quick speaking Kevin Rudd is thrown out of Kirrabilli, the triathlete Tony "Jesus didn't say yes to everyone," Abbott would take over.

One has to be forgiven for losing hope in the political process, when faced with such choices. If such a system does exist, where we feel powerless, then what are we to do to break free of it? What needs to be done. What is the essential corrupting feature of our present society. Money? Meat? Self interest? Something needs to be changed. A new constitution written. Perhaps it is already too late.
