    Rudd's $42 billion 'nation building' plan

    I agree with that sentiment in regard to Fielding and Xenophon. Fielding is nowhere near as radical as Fred Nile for example. And Xenophon has power at the moment - a DD would be disaster for him.

    Combined Law Transferees 2009 Thread

    Out of interest what did you guys get to transfer in? Is UNSW's recommendation of 95 UAI and a credit average accurate?

    Best uni for studying Law?

    Im just relaying what I have been told by a whole host of lawyers and an MP. I didn't mention anything about UAI cut offs other than that those two are harder to get into I even sighted ANU whose cut-off is far more achievable as a very good university to study law at - again relayed to me by a...

    Australian Politics

    Rudd seperated himself on three key issues - work choices, Iraq and climate change - everything else he agreed with. It was a brilliant display of political skill.

    Australian Politics

    I would say that of those only Turnbull and Hockey could possibly do it. Two words will defeat Costello - 'Work Choices'. While Nelson just isn't PM material.

    Best uni for studying Law?

    The good universities guide recommends UNSW as the best but overall Sydney is more prestigous than UNSW mainly because it is the oldest law school. I think historicall speaking only Usyd graduates have become high court justices from our state but that said South Australia (the state not the...

    int. studies: USYD or UNSW?

    Sydney's course is completely new this year. UNSW probably has the best reputation from what I hear word of mouth.

    Victorian bushfires

    Yeah from what I have heard some people did everything right in terms of fire safety. On the 730 report last night a guy said that the only way everyone could have been saved in his area was if they cleared everyone out on the basis that it was going to be a bad day for conditions.

    Nsw state election : Who will you be voting?

    Correct me if Im wrong but DDevil is suggesting the absolute combining of the legislative and executive branches of government so that there is no opposition (or indeed review) of policy. If I were to point to the single biggest flaw in the Australian system I would say that the legislative...

    Nsw state election : Who will you be voting?

    I believe thats called a one party state and hasnt been so successful.

    Australian Politics

    I agree wholeheartedly - but I think with a charismatic leader, someone even better than Brown, the Greens have a chance of becoming a real force in Australian politics. Though that would require a perfect storm (not unlike in NSW) where the left is forced away from labour.

    Australian Politics

    FDR looks vaguely like turnbull. http://blogs.villagevoice.com/runninscared/fdr.jpg I think the Greens are stronger with a good leader like Brown - he is replaceable. But regardless as long as they hold firm on their idealogies and don't stray and become ridiculously alarmist they have a...

    Problems Enrolling (B Arts)

    Thanks for that. I knew that was the case in regard to electives and economics. The only thing Im concerned about is Ill be transferring into law 2nd year so I was wonder if it would be best to do a few law electives this year but its not a great problem.

    Problems Enrolling (B Arts)

    Ok, I got a late round offer to do Arts at UNSW. At first I was put under the old program code of 3400 but after a phone call Im now onto the new arts program 3403. Iv got up to the point where Im selecting courses but can't access the first year planner because its saying the program code...

    Rudd's $42 billion 'nation building' plan

    Two things 1- printing money only results in inflation - more money chasing after the same amount of goods leads to prices generally rising. 2- Why would I or anyone accept money for goods and services if there was a real possibility that noone else would accept that money? And to an...

    Rudd's $42 billion 'nation building' plan

    To an extent mistakes were made. As I understand it Clinton attempted to make it easier to give loans to people who couldn't pay it back. But the financial institutions bundled them up and sold them because there was no rsik to them if they got rid of debts - in fact they would already have...
