(aussie.zone)
This community is a place created for the people of Melbourne and Victoria. We are a positive, welcoming and inclusive community. We might not agree about everything, but we always strive to stay civil and respectful.
The focus of our discussions is based around things that affect Victoria, but we are also free to discuss our local perspective on wider issues. Or head to the regular Daily Random Discussion thread to talk about anything.
Ongoing discussions, FAQs & Resources (still under construction)

Where oh where could my hour be?
The gov'ment took it away from me. 🎶
They took it, and although they give it back in six months they keep quiet about what happens to the interest.
My calculations indicate that every Daylight Saving season sees an average of 38 years in interest in Victoria alone (3 mins per person). Instead of distributing this back to the population, I believe this is being hoarded by a small cabal of high profile people and politicians who are using it for their own nefarious purposes. One dozen people living lives four times the length the rest of us get, whilst using their control of time to line their pockets with insider trading and telling everyone their success is "good business sense" and not theft. They count on their ability to push the rest of us down, keeping us too busy working multiple jobs to make ends meet, to stop us from recognising what they are doing and rising up against our time-thieving opressors. We need to fight together to end this tyranny - wake up sheeple and join the fight before it is too late!
