Cheers Dave, yeah we were discussing politics and cars as usual in live chat LOL and i posted up the link. I have pretty much seen all of this guys doco's and it doesn't take a brain surgeon to realise what he is saying is spot on. Plus, i try to stop the clip and research at the same time, since I'm on the other side of the world, the media we usually get is only whenever there is a so called terrorist plot or something bad happens. For example, it's not really mentioned in this doco because it was previous to the film being made, but, since they have been trying to get those naked scanners in everywhere, all of a sudden, "underwear bomber" and all the suspicions surrounding it. A week later, we have a representative of the US over here trying to get them in all our airports.
Same with habeus corpus and their new 05 terror laws passed here, same with the drug testing in certain jobs, it was brought through without the bill being passed and without the signatures of the union officials which is stated must be done in our enterprise bargaining agreement. The minister at the time is no longer in politics because of ceertain fraudulent activities and i am quite sure he was getting a payload of cash from the drug testing companies involved.
In NSW,where i am, in my previous employment, random testing is done to 20-30 individuals at every depot,$660 for the stage 1 test, at the time there were 7 depots, so they were pulling in over $100,000 a day. Now they have moved it to all station and even offices in the same company so hundreds of people get tested every day.
