yeh apparently those few of us who want true freedom from an oppressive state are un-Australian... I guess the penal-colony mentality has never quote been shaken off the majority of people, so they wouldn't even know what true liberty is
At Walmart, HR decides employees don't need a wage which frees them from reliance on the food stamps the government has decided they need to survive, paid for by taxes they purport to need to collect from those who appear to have more than is needed. While the employees might decide they need a better job, alternative employers decide they'll need education or training provided by entities who decide how much money is needed in fees to achieve this. Seems those that decide are those that have that which is needed, or the power to enforce their decision with threats of imprisonment. Most with enough to spare decide they need freedom more than money, and decide who to vote for to best address their needs, thereby granting the government the mandate they need to decide. It's a vicious circle.
Freedom was relatively easy in colonial times. Just avoid settlements and don't give anyone a reason to come looking for you. Freedom doesn't come from whinging about the system, it comes from working within it until you can effectively remove yourself from it. The cost of liberty is security, it always has been. If you're willing and able to undertake a self-sufficient existence and take responsibility for your own survival outside the system, aware of the reduced capacity for reliance on the material comforts it provides, the choice is yours. All you need to do is figure out where John Galt went, and walk towards it.
http://esuperfund.com.au/ Fill out the form and you'll get a stack of pre-filled forms in the mail, sign them and you are all set up! Yes it really is that easy. You'll get a company trust with ABN, bank account, a share trading account, and a metals trading account! Then just roll-over your super money into it. Each year you fill out an automated online form that sucks in all the data from those accounts and you spend 10-20 minutes checking or saying what transactions are for and that's it. They handle all the auditing. If you have to borrow money to buy property then it gets much trickier, but if you stick to simply buying shares and metal (or property if you have the cash) with your existing super money then it's dead easy.
