No, they are deliberately misleading the public while attempting to shore up as much capital as possible for themselves, before the real crisis actually happens. It just so happens that more people are starting to catch on to their bullshit.
Don't make the mistake of thinking Morrison et al are incompetent. They are highly accomplished politicians who know exactly what to say and do to keep their jobs, and so far it is working.
- ganeshkrishnan 7y agoMorrison won the election in a direct democracy with mandatory voting. Recently they increased their approval in the latest poll. Countries get the leaders they deserve.
