    K Rudd's obsession with saving the planet from global warming.

    nuking china is not a solution, the reason why they have a huge CO2 emission, is because they hold most of the worlds population. Why should they reduce their emissions when Australia contributes something like 1% ( not sure exactly) of the worlds CO2 emissions. Where there only 20 million...

    K Rudd's obsession with saving the planet from global warming.

    .... sigh Its not how BIG the country is it how HIGH IT IS ABOVE SEA LEVEL countries which are really really big, where most of the MOST of the land is only 0.5 - 2m above sea level, or where some of the land is below sea level will get flooded very easily if the sea rises. Australia has a...

    Euthanasia for Life Prisoners

    Monopoly

    Monopoly

    Travel Concessions for International Students - Foolish Demands

    I would assume most international students do not support themselves , if they do ie their parents aren't rich they probably on a ADS scholarship. Most Aussie students aren't rich. I am sure no Aussie student can afford to pay full fee (perhaps their parents), kids with rich parents are the...

    Travel Concessions for International Students - Foolish Demands

    apparently Victoria and NSW are the only states that do not give concessions to international students. "the Premier, Nathan Rees, who held long talks with the Indian Foreign Minister, V.S.Krishna, two weeks ago, is facing calls to give overseas students greater access to travel concessions...

    Travel Concessions for International Students - Foolish Demands

    Currently there are some on going campaigns by the Usyd SRC and various student unions to get travel concessions for international students naturally they have only presented a one sided view on the issue and naturally i feel compelled to use my right to free speech* to give a more balanced...

    Tax reform

    true tax is a percent and naturally the more wealthier company would pay more tax, but this is only a linear increase in cost where the use of public infustructure and services could increase exponentially or by some polynomial, but i can't prove this, it is only guess! say the richer...

    Tax reform

    the idea for higher taxes for people with higher incomes is simple... well this is how i reason it from a capitalistic perspective People who are wealthy simply use more government infustructure for example if you have a business, while you operate you are using public roads and...

    UWS engineering.. any good?

    UNSW has far more resources and when you are learning with a generally smarter crowd, their intelligence and enthusiasm could rub off on you. and USYD and UNSW campus are cool better social life and stuff ect all these things can added up but ultimately you make the greatest difference...

    Very Soon commercial nuclear fusion reactors will be built. Proto type fusion reactors are already running. Unlike conventional nuclear power fusion(nuclear power) does not produce any radio active waste! So essentially as it is today’s nuclear power is only a short term solution, we probably...

    You Can Escape a black hole!!

    OMG escape velocity has nothing to do with with escaping black holes, as it does not apply to accelerated objects and light. Things cannot escape a black hole once it enters the event horizon as space is soooo bent that there is no parth in space that leads away from the black hole At...
