    When voting in an election, one must always select the individual/party that will screw up one's situation the least.

    ... Unfortunately it is getting harder and harder to identify which person/party that is.

    But it's tax deductable if you turn the 'criminal management' into a business... If you make any money you'll get taxed on it... But at least you can buy more silver!!

    I stand to be corrected, but weren't we involved as agressors, along with the British, during the Boer War?

    Wikipedia is our friend.

    Australians were certainly there, as part of a multi-national force.

    And yes, we were aggressors. It was basically a british attempt to retake the colonies after they had fought and won independance previously.

    Interestingly, this is the first time we saw the implementation of concentration camps..... oh yeah, our hands are clean right... no skeletons in this closet!! (Shh... They're under the floorboards)

    Not sure, but back then we would not have had a choice, we were a peon of Britain and had to do what they told us. Not so this century.
