Age why do I even bother


Bill Shorten’s trouble with the Royal Commission is an example of a general problem for Labor.   Labor people tend to work for not-for-profits working for the general good, so people think they’re aspiring to be saints and leap upon any shortcomings as signs that they have feet of clay.  Liberals proudly work for capitalist pigs and are assumed to be sinners, and so any actions they take that aren’t specifically directed towards grinding the faces of the widow and the orphan are taken as signs of transcendent virtue. One man can steal a horse where another can’t look over a fence.
