    I'm inclined to think this is the one we should be aware of.

    Do they work, or are they hypothetical?

    Well they have had tests.
    Oh and it can carry a 250 kiloton thermonuclear payload. The Hiroshima bomb was 16

    Which is what worries me when clowns go trying to big note themselves, some people that have these are not rational people

    When the hypersonic missile comes at Pine Gap,

    how many seconds warning do you think you will get?

    You don't have to compete with S.E. Asia labor costs.
    Just take care of Australia First.
    And try tariffs.

    It's funny but most things you read about the missiles is if they are powerful enough to reach the USA

    The one city I would be worried to live in. . Washington.

    NYC is a thought of target.

    unless they were targeting an invitation such as exist at Pine Gap. ;)
    Australia First.

    Wouldn't military installations be targeted first?
    The Cold War was an exciting time to experience.
    The idea of the Minuteman missiles waiting quietly in their silos was amazing.

    As you sell out the quality of your life style for your children and grandchildren.




    Fair Trade is Fair.
    How can an Australian production line compete with a dirty, polluting factory that uses child labor, etc. Charge a tariff against such producers.

    We don't compete with the labour intensive production of our neighbours. We buy their stuff and they buy our primary products. They spend their hard earned Renminbi here when they come on holiday.
    They go home laden with wine and other booty.

    Can I ask you when was the last time you were in Australia? I know my experience of the USA is 25 years old but back then there wasn't even a comparison.

    I was shocked most I suppose of the dramatic gap between the poor and the working class. The gap between the working class then and the middle class was then about the same as ours now.

    You know what the biggest difference I found was the gun mentality. At that time in Australia we never had the regulations we have today yet here I have hardly ever heard anyone say they would like a gun for self protection.

    It is my honest opinion that it is not guns that are the problem, it's the attitude to them that they are the solution to all your woes.

    They are the cause. . ....

    @LeftRightLeft

    Ask @Sallyally about those new smaller than building code apartments
    Australia is currently allowing.



    Been to Australia -
    I watched Quigley Down Under and Nicole Kidman in Australia.
    Oh, and Toni Collette, Japanese Story.


    I don't need to go to Russia or :flagcanada: to know I wouldn't want to go there.

    :)

    I never said you did, but you are only basing your posts on your interpretation of anecdotal evidence of the comments on a forum, a few fictional movies, the news of the most filtered news I have ever seen or google.

    I am just trying to get a feel for your base knowledge. It explains much.

    And YOU are basing YOURS
    on your own personal experience and unique perception. :nana:

    Is the blue you see the same as the blue I see or do we just both learn to call it blue?


    BTW I do love history, not herstory and know how badly William Bligh was treated. How many know that? eh
    And I am personally fascinated by how :flagcanada: and Australia never got a full grip on FREEDOM in a cultural way. A persisting cultural difference from failing to rebel against the British Parliment's oppression and the failure of his majesty to intervene. Fascinating cultural differences still evident today.

    Everyone, well most here rant about energy costs and I have seen people with extraordinary bills. Then I look at mine and wonder what in the world must they be doing more than I do to use the rest.

    Yes my perception is unique, that is what separates humans from being some sort of biological robot. Each of us has a unique perspective that is what makes us human, our differences not our similarities
