At the same time, penalty rates on wages for weekend workers in retail and hospitality are being slashed which makes it hard for students.

All of a sudden young people turn 18 and unless they have been paying attention to politics they are very blasé about how they will be affected by the politics of their country. I will admit I really didn't pay very much attention until my 30s and I became aware of how taxes and jobs affected my family. Today we have an environmental crisis looming on the horizon and it is even more imperative the young people get involved. I agree, Acerules, the adults should be more encompassing to the young people.KEthical Politicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12169552208571703884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647425979151417363.post-1485896760982406032017-06-09T09:10:53.889+10:002017-06-09T09:10:53.889+10:00Oh, I'm Acerules.<br />Oh, I'm Acerules.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647425979151417363.post-80291894126664427752017-06-09T09:10:07.142+10:002017-06-09T09:10:07.142+10:00The problem is we would be able to do much more if...The problem is we would be able to do much more if the adults would see that we kids can help. I think that if it's a decision that effects everyone then everyone should have a chance to decide what's best.

They seem more mature.

Covers so many issues.<br /><br />We should be able to just Get Along but I watched a political debate programme the other night and the men in the audience just kept repeatedly going back to badger Corbin about his anti nuclear weapons and war stance. <br />It took a young female to simply say 'I don't understand why everyone's so against someone who doesn't want to blow the world up' to shut them up. <br />Unfortunately a lot of people think weapons = peace n protection and just forget about the massive arms industry and all the death n destruction it brings. I can understand to a degree but what an abysmal waste of funding that could be put to so much better use.<br />We're a sad idiotic species sometimes.Fizzfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15690612271163437496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-647425979151417363.post-84115136328247197192017-06-07T20:05:04.597+10:002017-06-07T20:05:04.597+10:00Here's the link to the Manchester Hug Experime...Here's the link to the Manchester Hug Experiment.
