I am crafting a piece about the ideal purpose and functions of a government.
A national government is the leading body of a nation.
In our country the government is made up of representatives elected by the eligible voting members of the citizenry.
Via legislation this body sets the policy and strategy of how the nation is to attain its goals.
The responsibility of a national government is to preserve, protect, defend and enhance the
life,
liberty,
freedom,
health,
individual and collective assets,
quality of life and
prosperity
of its citizens and the
flora,
fauna and
environment (air, above and below ground water, land and sea quality)
from threats both external and internal.
To ensure this it must also promote the stability and security of its neighbouring governments.
If a government is not doing the above it is not doing its job. It is betraying the trust of its people. It is in treason. And needs to be replaced.
Everywhere you turn you can see instances of and the results of our present government not doing its job.
It is well past time for a change from the status quo.
How far removed from that ideal purpose are the actions of the Greens, Labor, Liberals and Nationals?
Here is something you can do towards that. Support the establishment of a federal anti-corruption watchdog.
