We as a society need to start putting people back in their boxes. Im so sick of bogans thinking they run the joint and everyone is to scared to say something back to them.

Also, why no public holiday?

Why? It's one weekend out of 52. Surely one day less isn't going to hurt anyone particularly to show thanks to those who served or serve. It's not as though people who would normally have Saturday off didn't.

It was brought in a few years ago and I for one am totally in agrrement on this one.

I'm in Victoria where we have a day off for a horse race and there is talk to take the day off before the AFL grand final.

Seems, these would be more important.
This is what I am disgusted about.
