Trust fades away

We experience it every day in every corner of the nation.

Just look at a few examples.

Every time we fill our petrol tanks, there are wildly fluctuating prices that cannot be justified.

Our energy bills are in the same category. It simply does not cost that much to produce. It is blatant robbery.

If you have bought a franchisee, the owner of the franchise has the power to screw you to death, force you to employ cheap labour and insist that you must rip off customers.

Those who lease premises in a shopping centre are treated the same – milked to death.

Supermarkets rip off farmers and force them out of business. They have destroyed every small dairy farmer in a disgusting manner.

At the same time, Trade Unions abuse their power mightily. They no longer represent the workers. They are just an elite little club of power brokers who have proved to be untrustworthy.

News media rarely report news accurately. You can never be sure that you are hearing the story correctly.

I could go on with a longer list of grievances, but, if I do, you will decide that I am just a whinger.

Grant me a last line or two as I must talk about politicians.

Our Parliaments were intended to be places that are beacons of respect where Members of Parliament were elected to be pillars of an honest society.
