Widespread replacement of jobs by automation may be possible in the future but what's possible is not always what's right.
The question for government is will we allow multinational corporations and big business to automate jobs out of existence to the point where even the lowest impact region could see 24.6% of workers displaced and my region could see a whopping 41.2% of jobs displaced. That is just an unacceptable proposition.
I can tell you that our region will not have any appetite for industries to operate here that have impacts on the community if there is not the trade-off of widespread job creation.
Basically, you forget about digging holes in our backyard, running trucks through our town or having a meatworks stinking the place out if you're not going to employ anyone.

Being right-wing is not an evil. And extremism in defence of liberty is no vice.

Powerful cartoon from Leunig reflecting how the coercion and de facto vax mandates are something straight out of Communist China.

Everything I’ve said in this story (linked below) is the truth. But this headline isn’t. I said that employers need to recognise workers aren’t slaves so they don’t own their bodies and shouldn’t force them to vaccinate to keep their job.

Wow. Read the dissenting opinion of Fair Work Commissioner Lyndall Dean in a ‘No Jab, No Job’ case (although, sadly, the other two commissioners found in favour of the employer):

[179] Research in the context of COVID-19 has shown that many who are ‘vaccine-hesitant’ are well educated, work in the health care industry and have questions about how effective the vaccines are in stopping transmission, whether they are safe to take during pregnancy, or if they affect fertility. 37 A far safer and more democratic approach to addressing vaccine hesitancy, and therefore increasing voluntary vaccination uptake, lies in better education, addressing specific and often legitimate concerns that people may hold, and promoting genuine informed consent. It does not lie in censoring differing opinions or removing rights and civil liberties that are fundamental in a democratic nation. It certainly does not lie in the use of highly coercive, undemocratic and unethical mandates.
[180] The statements by politicians that those who are not vaccinated are a threat to public health and should be “locked out of society” and denied the ability to work are not measures to protect public health. They are not about public health and not justified because they do not address the actual risk of COVID. These measures can only be about punishing those who choose not to be vaccinated. If the purpose of the PHOs is genuinely to reduce the spread of COVID, there is no basis for locking out people who do not have COVID, which is easily established by a rapid antigen test. Conversely, a vaccinated person who contracts COVID should be required to isolate until such time as they have recovered.
[181] Blanket rules, such as mandating vaccinations for everyone across a whole profession or industry regardless of the actual risk, fail the tests of proportionality, necessity and reasonableness. It is more than the absolute minimum necessary to combat the crisis and cannot be justified on health grounds. It is a lazy and fundamentally flawed approach to risk management and should be soundly rejected by courts when challenged.
[182] All Australians should vigorously oppose the introduction of a system of medical apartheid and segregation in Australia. It is an abhorrent concept and is morally and ethically wrong, and the anthesis of our democratic way of life and everything we value.
[183] Australians should also vigorously oppose the ongoing censorship of any views that question the current policies regarding COVID. Science is no longer science if it a person is not allowed to question it.
[184] Finally, all Australians, including those who hold or are suspected of holding “anti-vaccination sentiments”, are entitled to the protection of our laws, including the protections afforded by the Fair Work Act. In this regard, one can only hope that the Majority Decision is recognised as an anomaly and not followed by others.

The Governor of Florida Ron DeSantis - who will likely be a Presidential or Vice-Presidential candidate - asks: “Is Australia freer than communist China right now? I don’t know. The fact that that’s even a question tells you something has gone dramatically off the rails with some of this stuff.
The fact that someone of his stature in is asking such a question should shame Dan, Gladys and every other politician supporting lockdowns, vaccine discrimination, no jab no job mandates, mask mandates, border closures, the suppression of free speech around the vaccine, the suppression of free movement, the suppression of the right to peaceful protest and brutal actions against peaceful protesters.
The pandemic insanity in Australia must end!

Victorians are dialling 000 Emergency for a sniffle now. "They instilled fear and now the system can't cope. Of course people are ringing an ambulance. We have been brainwashed to believe it's dangerous to be outside, to walk past people, to see our mothers on Mother's Day, to speak to our neighbours," one insider said.

How shameful is it to have one of the major leaders in the USA (Florida Governor Ron DeSantis) say this about our country? He’s right though. Governments here have gone too far in the name of the pandemic. Our liberties have been violated. The madness needs to end now.

“Today, we’re continually reminded that we live under a capitalist system and that it hasn’t worked. The middle class is disappearing, and the cost of goods has become too high to be affordable. There are far more losers than winners, and the greed of big business is destroying the economy.
This is what we repeatedly hear from left-leaning people and, in fact, they are correct. They then go on to label these troubles as byproducts of capitalism and use this assumption to argue that capitalism should give way to socialism.
In this, however, they are decidedly wrong. These are the byproducts of an increasing level of collectivism and fascism in the economy. In actual fact, few, if any, of these people have ever lived in a capitalist (free-market) society, as it has been legislated out of existence in the former “free” world over the last century.”

Sadly the answer to the question is no.

A few people have been emailing me about the Fair Work Commission decision on ‘No Jab, No Job’ mandates from earlier in the week.
The decision is in relation to Jennifer Kimber v Sapphire Coast Community Aged Care Ltd. I have read the decision.
People are being directed to read from page 32 of the decision onwards but sadly that section is not part of the majority Fair Work Commission ruling but the dissenting opinion of one commissioner by the name of Lyndall Dean.
Don’t get me wrong… I truly wish it was the ruling of the FWC as I agree with everything that Commissioner Dean wrote in her dissenting opinion.
But the reality is the FWC has ruled against workers’ rights when it comes to vaccine mandates.
I understand the matter is being taken to the Federal Court by the plaintiff. Hopefully the Federal Court will agree with the dissenting opinion of Fair Work Commissioner Lyndall Dean.
