I have in mind to write a few pieces on probity in business. This one is about advertising.

What looked like it might have been a place to make a bit of a difference turned out to be a home for vitriol, spite, and negativity. Stuff that certainly won't help my search.

Under the spotlight of the covid pandemic we have seen that privatisation has serious flaws. They don't just apply to Aged Care. We need to revisit the extent to which public ownership and operation of our assets has been taken out of our hands.

The current debate about reversing the legislated growth in the Superannuation Guarantee shows us that politics can get in the way even when the parliament appears to have locked in a future delivery of a promise or a plan.

As a result I filtered what I talked about, especially my views about the wealth gap and the impact of unbridled capitalism. For some time this compromise has been bugging me and I now see that it is the reason for the blogging process coming to a halt last year.
