Here we go… this is what big #Corporations and their associated #Workforce sub-contracting is all about. #Fleecing #Workers and walking away from #DutyOfCare using #LegalAttactDogs and flooding the courts with legal counters backed up with ample funding to drown out #Litigation (There are new laws — anti SLAPP? — in the UK to prevent this from happening, but not here) and out-spend legitimate lawsuits. Laws to protect the wealthy and control everyone else.

“This has all the hallmarks of strategic litigation for commercial advantage. BHP, with its army of hundreds of PR staff, refused to respond to repeated approaches from Michael West Media. Yet they were lightning fast to sue. They’re weaponising our public courts — funded by taxpayers — to silence a simple enquiry into potential systemic wage theft. All while pocketing around $622 million a year in taxpayer-funded diesel fuel tax credits.”

BHP tries to bury $11.4 billion wage theft scandal — and Michael West with it

Sworn evidence, a $2 shell company, and a disabled coal miner. Now they’re coming for the messenger.

I agree. The only way to fight this is with #HomePV (a battery if you can afford it) and an BEV car with V2S capability. But then, we need a change of govt and economic model which prioritises society at large ahead of #Corporate #Grifters and #RunawayCapitalism A tall oder… but we can get there if we all become politically active.

How’s this for a complete and frank confession that the #Labor Govt is Wholy Owned by the #CorporateGiants making bucket loads of profit from #Raping the land and #Pillaging Australian #Resources:

“Trade minister Don Farrell said on Friday “we’re not changing our policies in respect to gas” and that “the most important thing” was to honour existing export contracts.”

Well, Mr #Farrell, for your information, the gas export contracts have nought to do with you or your govt. It is a #Commercial contract from which #Santos and others derive an outrageous profit. So if we were to #Tax that, it would reduce theirt bottom line by the same percentage without any change to the contracts they hold (unless they contain some cagey and dogey clauses — but that a commercial issue again and commercial law, nothing to do with the Govt.)

Nothing more is needed from our govt to prove that #StateCapture is alive and thriving in Aus when a Trade Minister goes to bat for an #ExtrativeIndustry Private Corporation! You just wait until the next election or by-elections, we’ll teach you a thing or two.

Anthony Albanese accused of ‘caving to gas companies’ as Labor set to reject new export tax

David Pocock says prime minister – who is trying to shore up fuel supplies – is parroting industry talking points

#AIfails when people use it for things they should do themselves. Case in point, when this substitute teaching agency processes a sub's cancellation after receiving a long email from them explaining why. There was no human 'agent' involved, nobody read my email. It was only processed by a machine.

Their CEO pays herself $5 million a year.

#theonepercent is all about #greed via #runawaycapitalism and this is why #socialism works better.

When Billy Joel said "We Didn't Start the Fire", I thought he was serious. But now I realize he was being ironic. Or at least I hope he was. 🤔
