#dual citizenship, #multiple citizenship, #citizen in name only, #national in name only, #inclusiveness,

A mean country Z can actually rob other countries of their wealth, heritage and carry out the genocides of their people using the following guide.

1. Sending people claiming to be refugees from some real or insignificant persecution.

The claims are a only a legal basis for admission into that country. Most countries signed with the United Nations to allow for entrance by refugees.

The mean country Z can send its citizens to rich countries A, B, C, …

After that, citizens from Z should stay in those country and try to demand compensations for “unjustified detention” while the claim for refugee status is assessed. Claimants to refugee status can expect help from legal experts paid for by those countries assessing their status and can have appeals using tax money of those countries as if they were tax payers of those countries.

Any wrong doing by custodians may also result in compensation payouts (determined the standards of that rich country) which may be a huge fortune when measured by the earning standards of the claimants from country Z.

2. Organizing those people for their citizenship in rich countries.

Every country allow residents (including refugees) with good characters without any criminal conviction take up citizenship after some time living there.

This step is a piece of cake. Even rapists may be considered to have good characters and may be released without conviction. The Australian AAT may be a useful channel for claimants in Australia [1]!

Note that the granting of citizenship does not require any prospect for contribution to the host country! A 70 years old can also take up a citizenship and enjoy the Old Age Pension paid by a host country (such as Australia) without ever paying any tax to that country in his working life. Similarly a person already disable before entering the country may also take up citizenship to enjoy Disability Allowance supplied by the host country such as Australia. There is no need to learn the language of the host country: In Australia, interpreting service is supplied for free for the whole life of any immigrant.

3. Starting chain migration.

Each new citizen now can demand the rights to bring his family (which may have two or more wives), parents, the families of the parents to the host country.

Better still, each citizen comes back to the originating country to marry another one (may also be a same sex marriage) and bring the partner (conventional spouse or same sex partner) to the host country. The newly arrived spouse will be granted citizenship. After a minimum time of about one year, one of them file for uncontested divorce. So now the host country has two unmarried citizens. Those two citizens will continue the exponential number games.

4. Demanding for dual citizenship rights.

Having citizenship in the host country is not an end in this game. The citizens of Z will now demand inclusiveness in politics. They claim that they can never be released of their citizenship from their former country, or claiming that is not convenient for them. So they demand the right to be considered Dual Citizens !

All citizens of countries A, B, C who formerly claimed to be refugees suddenly resurface, applying to be allowed dual citizenship making them also Citizen of country Z.

5. Demanding rights to stand for Parliament/Congress with dual citizenship.

Currently many English speaking countries (excluding Australia) allow for dual citizenship, many even allow people with dual citizenship (meaning half loyalty) to stand for elected Parliament/Congress and Prime Minister/President Office [2 -7].

Those countries have used twisted argument that it is too inconvenient for politicians to renounce their other loyalty. So they should be allowed dual citizenship (Implying multiple citizenship and partial loyalty is all right.).

Note that currently Australia is the only significant English speaking country NOT ALLOWING people with dual citizenship to hold elected office in governments.

6. Manipulating Parliament/Congress to turn host countries into zombies.

A prominent example is the United States of America, a rich country that allows dual citizenship. Its political issues now only revolve around whether America First or loyalty to “the other country” and globalism is appropriate. Such a scenario transforms Americans with only sole citizenship to America into slaves working for “the other country” without having any benefit for themselves.

A biological analogy is that the dual citizens work as a invading virii to capture all the resource and energy of a host cell (representing a host country) to replicate not the descendants of the host cell but the invading virii. The final result is that there are more virii while the host cell will end up explosing.

A country Z can even organize its “dual citizens” with Citizenship In Name Only in both country A and country B to start war between those two countries. This will certainly bring country Z to a dominant position after A and B have been both destructed and exhausted by wars. Some people have suspected that many countries have been brought into the two World Wars by these types of plans.

7. Strategy for counter-measures.

When a nation has adopted rules for dual citizenship, the above nasty hypothetical case may happen. Its citizens should demand abolition of dual citizenship.

Failing that every citizen of nation A must suppose that nation A will soon reach its own demise and everyone has to select and obtain for himself a dual citizenship with some other nation and then consider himself only a National In Name Only of nation A. The wealth and the heritage of nation A is then the spoil for final distribution to other surviving nations.

Notes to commenters.

This is a sensitive issues to many countries. Only comments on theoretical aspects are accepted. Comments mentioning names of races or ethnic groups will not be accepted.

North Korea is NOT a proxy province of China

North Korea is NOT a proxy province of China.

(Blog No. 137).

#North Korea, #proxy of China,

The West should not damage the chance for the creation an independent, united Korea.

Western policy makers are usually arrogant while they are actually deadly ignorant of political thinking outside of their own countries.

”The DPRK is a proxy province of China.” is a terrible assessment error by the West. Actually N.Korea and China may fight to their deaths if China invades N.K.

a. N. K. has always placed its army along its border with China to prevent any sudden invasion (like has been done to Tibet) [2-13].

b. Kim Jong Un had executed Jang Song Thaek, the husband of his aunt, partially because the man is suspected of planning to use Chinese support to take the throne [14-19].

c. From S.K. intelligence, the Institute for training N.K. officials used to have banners stating that China is NOT a friend to N.K.

With astute Foreign Affairs policies from the West, an independent, United Korea may arrive in East Asia. Otherwise there may remain satellites like “Communist East Germany, Eastern Europe” in East Asia, economically supported and united by a new COMECON that is the One Silk Route.

Yulin Dog Meat Festival CONTINUES!!!

Source: https://vikinglifeblog.wordpress.com/2017/06/26/yulin-dog-meat-festival-continues/

(Blog No. 136).

Comment by tonytran2015:

Do you like this dog? said the store keeper.
Yes, said the unwary tourist.
Do you like it boiled, stir fried or roasted?
The tourist became terribly surprised !

Yulin dog eating festival: 3000 dogs skinned alive, blow-torched then served-up as food

source: https://vikinglifeblog.wordpress.com/2018/05/25/yulin-dog-eating-festival-3000-dogs-skinned-alive-blow-torched-then-served-up-as-food/

(Blog No. 135).

There are also Vietnamese dog Eaters. Surprisingly, most of them are Vietnamese Roman Catholic. Why is the ratio of Vietnamese Catholic to non-Catholic dog eaters much much higher than the ratio in the general Vietnamese population? It is interesting if someone can give an answer.

Cancellation of USA and North Korea summit.

Cancellation of USA and North Korea summit.

by tonytran2015 (Melbourne, Australia).

Click here for a full, up to date ORIGINAL ARTICLE and to help fighting the stealing of readers’ traffic.

(Blog No. 134).

#North Korea, #US, #summit, #cancellation,

The cancellation is absolutely no surprise to anyone familiar with Chinese and East Asian politics.

Figure 1: Map of China and Asia on Chinese made glass Globes.

1. From North Korean point of view.

a. The Nuclear and Thermo-nuclear capability is a three generation heritage of the Kim dynasty. It has sacrificed everything to achieve that and it will not trade that “heritage” for anything. The Kim dynasty is proud of its “heritage”.

b. The achievement by N.K. can be counted as an example called by Westerners as “Chinese patience”. (In old Chinese literature translated into Vietnamese it is known as Ngu Công Phá Núi).

c. The most N.K. may do is to slow down the deployment of their new weapons in exchange for some economic cooperation.

d. A summit is an opprtunity for N.K. to internationally declare its membership to the Nuclear Club.

e. A summit is also an opprtunity to officially end the Korean War and maybe to reunite Korea.

2. From American point of view.

a. The US has tried to make N.K. lose its face by claiming that N.K. asked for a summit due to American economic pressure.

b. US unrealistically expected that N.K. would unilaterally denuclearize itself as a precondition to the summit.

c. U.S. National Security Adviser Bolton and then U.S. Vice President Pence had provoked N.K. close to the summit date by threatening that N.K. and Kim would suffer the fates of Lybia and Gaddafi if the summit fails.

3. From S. Korean point of view.

a. A summit is an opportunity to officially end the Korean War.

b. A summit is an opportunity to achieve non-aggression agreement and reunification (maybe following the German model).

c. Unilateral denuclearization by N.K. is NOT a crucial point.

4. From Chinese point of view.

a. China is only supporting N.K. economically to avoid having a social disaster next door.

b. China can be both an ally to or an enemy to N.K: If N.K. goes to war against U.S., China may support N.K. but if N.K. goes into a Nuclear stand-off against U.S., China may ally with the U.S. to disarm N.K. and occupy it (U.S. attack from the sky while Chinese PLA overrun NK).

c. China needs N.K. to distract U.S. from South China Sea while it deploys its Navy there.

d. China pretends to be the intermediary to obtain benefits in its expansion in South China Sea and in its economic war against the U.S.

Countries with dual citizenship rules may be internally torn apart.

Countries with dual citizenship rules may be internally torn apart.

by tonytran2015 (Melbourne, Australia).

Click here for a full, up to date ORIGINAL ARTICLE and to help fighting the stealing of readers’ traffic.

(Blog No. 133).

A citizen of any nation (country) should be loyal to only that country. Dual citizenship is a perverted invention for betrayal of countries. Many rich countries now adopt the rules for dual and multiple citizenship. In theory, any country with dual citizenship rules may be internally torn apart.

#dual citizenship, #multiple citizenship, #citizen in name only, #national in name only,

Countries with dual citizenship rules may be internally torn apart.

1. Dual citizenship rules.

There are a number of countries allowing their citizens to also have additional citizenship without losing their existing citizenship [1].

This can lead to the following hypothetical case where a nation having citizens with dual citizenship can be internally torn apart.

2. A country with dual citizenship rules may be torn apart.

We consider here a simple hypothetical case.

a. Nation A has 200M citizens of which 101M are also citizens of nation Z.

b. All 101M citizens of A having citizenship with Z vote to give all national wealth and heritage of nation A to nation Z.

c. After giving all its wealth to nation Z, nation A finally goes bankrupt.

d. All 101M citizens of A with dual citizenship from Z now move to nation Z and takes up residence there.

e. All 99M citizens of A without dual citizenship from Z cannot move to nation Z and have to stay inside nation A to pay up the debt.

Essentially, the people with dual citizenship have betrayed their nation A and enrich themselves at the expense of nation A.

3. Current situation in the World.

Currently many English speaking countries allow for dual citizenship, many even allow people with dual citizenship to hold elected office of President/(Prime Minister) and of Legislative/Parliament.

Australia has recently allowed dual citizenship and currently there has been proposal to allow people with dual citizenship to even stand for elected office of Parliament.

4. Strategy for counter-measures.

When a nation has adopted rules for dual citizenship, the above nasty hypothetical case may happen. Its citizens should demand abolition of dual citizenship.

Failing that every citizen of nation A must suppose that nation A will soon reach its own demise and everyone has to select and obtain for himself a dual citizenship with some other nation and then consider himself only a National In Name Only of nation A. The wealth and the heritage of nation A is then the spoil for final distribution to other surviving nations.

Notes to commenters.

This is a sensitive issues to many countries. Only comments on theoretical aspects are accepted. Comments mentioning names of races or ethnic groups will not be accepted.

The Parasites of Western Economy, Part 7: Providers of invented inefficient service from tax money.

The Parasites of Western Economy, Part 7: Providers of invented inefficient service from tax money.

(Blog No. 132).

In third world and Asian countries there are parasites feeding on corruption which is blatant and widespread.

For examples, if you enter Cambodia from Vietnam at the border check point of Moc Bai – Bravet, you always get asked for $5USD tip to the uniformed Cambodian Lieutenant Visa Issuer. The Western World call such demands corruption.

In the Western World, there is no blatant corruption, but only elaborately wrapped non-corruption (or otherwise!).

Any government in the world obtains its money from taxes imposed on its citizens. The citizens have the herd mentality and are often unconcerned that their money may be in the wrong hands. This sets the scene for parasites to come in and suck the communal treasure. Here we will use examples drawn on Australian experience but the same thing can be said for most English speaking white nations.

I think myself that we have more machinery of government than is necessary, too many parasites living on the labor of the industrious. Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have … The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases. The two enemies of the
people are criminals and government, so let us tie the second down with the chains of the constitution so the second will not become the legalized version of the first. Thomas Jefferson, Letter to William Ludlow, September 6, 1824.

The Parasites of Western Economy, Part 7: Providers of invented useless service from tax money.

1. Easily seen parasitic feeding at local government level:

The local governments are tasked with three basic R’s:

a. Collecting the least possible amounts of rates from residents.

b. to manage weekly collection of rubbish.

c. Maintain and operate local roads, footpath, parks, primary schools, local libraries.

It is simple like that but local governments still manage to bring in some parasitic feedings.

Examples:

Near to Footscray shopping mall (currently belonging to the Maribyrnong Council), Nicholson St (between Barkly Street and Byron Street), the pavements are CONSTANTLY dug up and remodeled since 1990.It must have been a gold mine for the contractors.

Traffic directions in Nicholson Street (between Irving Street and Paisley Street) had been switched from bi-directional to unidirectional in one way then unidirectional in the opposite way, yet, the designer never made up his mind. Trees are dug up and new tree replanted on the other side of the street, then again…

Trees around Footscray library (along Paisley Street and French Street) have been removed, replanted until they get to almost 3m tall, then removed (1995) then replanted with another type of trees. Continual replacement of trees around the library is now a feature of Footscray.

Library in Paisley Street, had been built with no regard for maintenance, its decorative skeleton is exposed to weather !

Library Group Study rooms are not for student groups to use but for connected people to blatantly abuse (October 2004), with those friends (?) of the Chief of Library overstaying their booking slots BY HOURS, spoiling the time tables of groups booking the following time slots.

The City of Maribyrnong in Melbourne allows private contractors to door knock residents and offer to replace any 2 of their filament light bulbs FOR FREE. The contractors are then paid by the Council about $100 AUD (nearly $70 USD) for that 10 minute work. It happened in Kent Street, West Footscray, Maribyrnong Council. 2012.

Council such as Brimbanks also tried to over-manage local stores by its (unsuccessful) attempt at requiring shops to have uniform shutter doors!

That is where Council Rate has been spent or misspent.

Currently Councils in Victoria spent 45% of rates on salaries! Their staff number increases and their Executive Officers receives higher salaries than State Premier.

THE cost of council workforces across Melbourne and Geelong have blown out by more than $500 million in the past five years. [1]

State Government of Victoria supervise all councils in Victoria and from time to time, the State government had to sack dysfunctional Councils [2,3,4,5]

2. Hidden parasitic feeding at local government level:

Local Councils now embarks on non-essential, non-beneficial work:

Advertisement for LGBT on referendum on LGBT rights.

Running City sisterhood with oversea cities.

Councilors going on oversea study trips. What is there to study while they still have not properly done their basic jobs efficiently? The cost for all local service is ways out of proportion to actual benefits.

Examples:

The ratepayers of Moreland will be astonished to learn that the council is considering spending their hard-earned dollars in support of Russian punk protest band Pussy Riot [6].

VICTORIAN councils are under fire for splashing ratepayers’ money on overseas “junkets” instead of focusing on local issues: La Trobe City council in Gippsland will spend $21,000 to send Mayor Darrell White and others to Japan and China in April. [7].

3. Easily seen parasitic feeding at a State government level.

A state government in Australia collect its revenues from distributed GST, Land Sale Tax and is tasked with building and operating intercity highways, ports, airports, lands . They have to supervise the Local Governments. But they also manage to waste States’ money.

Examples:

State of Victoria will set up a website for households to check their electricity pricing. Each visitor will get AUD 50 ($50) when visiting it! The following is a quote from the website [8]:

“To be eligible for a $50 Power Saving Bonus, use this tool between 1 July and 31 December 2018. There will only be one Power Saving Bonus per household.
Welcome to Victorian Energy Compare
An independent Victorian Government energy price comparison site. To get the most out of this tool, you need a recent energy bill or smart meter data file.” [8]

To study the way to set up a high speed rail link from Melbourne to Geelong may cost the State 50 million dollars in Consultant fees [9]. How much money will be left for actual work? Why don’t they use University think tanks instead of private consultants?

State of Victoria has sold out the management rights of its Melbourne Tullamarine Airport, to freely spend that money. Now private owners are now charging (the highest fees in the World?) for using the airport on car parking ($15 per 30 minutes), using baggage trolleys ($2 each use). While a return air ticket to Vietnam may cost only $280, taxi fares to airport average about $40, car-parking fees at airport cost $14/hour. It is very expensive [10].

In the short-stay car park, a 24-hour stay will set a traveler back $56, while people using credit cards to pay for their parking will be liable for a 2 per cent credit card surcharge. [11].

Currently State of Victoria is planning to give $500 million to a private organization AFL to build their stadium. AFL is currently a sport organization of Australia,

“Victoria will pour nearly $500 million into its AFL grounds, with almost half the cash going to a makeover of Etihad Stadium and millions for women’s football.

In a $225 million deal with the AFL, the grand final will stay at the MCG until at least 2057, while Etihad Stadium and its surrounding precinct will be upgraded [12].”

However, there is nothing to prevent AFL to dissolve itself in the future and distribute its capital among its members, in the same way as AMP, National Mutual, MLC, Colonial Mutual, NRMA have done in the 1990’s. The dissolution of non-profit organizations created huge cash from the sky for their then current members at the expense of expectation by former members and past concessions received from tax payers over decades [13,14].

4. Easily seen parasitic feeding at Federal government level.

The welfare system is an obvious place for cheats to dip into tax money. The government allow “chain migration” which places into the population more and more welfare net recipients. Some of them later on engaged in welfare cheats [15, 16, 17, 18, 19]. They set up their own self-serving industries like:

a- Interpreter (Translation) service for the whole lifetime of each immigrant.

b- Medical service where migrants used for certifying administrative papers! A visit to the doctor cost the government $70. The actual purpose of the visit is to ask the doctor to certify their papers. They are too lazy to go to a Police Office or a municipal council office for certification. Immigrant doctors are abnormally much richer than native white doctors in similar circumstances.

Non-migrant manipulators also manage to suck the system with child care centers [20].

Ceiling Insulation by Rudd’s government in 2009, and its Green Energy policy promoting costly Solar panels, depleting Australian treasury surplus also deserve investigation [21, 22, 23, 24].

5. Conclusions.

Every citizen has to be vigilant and report to the Government any cheating he can see. Only by doing so he can avoid being a tax donkey provider for those cheats. Citizenry must also actively participate in politics to prevent leftists from turning the tax money into honey pots for corrupt politicians [25, 26].

It is also now a question whether people with no net contribution to the economy should be allowed to hold elected office?

The Renaissance Mathematicus

Four hundred years ago today Johannes Kepler rediscovered his most important contribution to the evolution of astronomy, his third law of planetary motion.

He had originally discovered it two months earlier on 8 March but due to a calculation error rejected it. On 15 May he found it again and this time recognised that it was correct. He immediately added it to his Harmonices Mundi:

For when the true distances between the spheres were found, through the observations of Brahe, by continuous toil for a very long time, at last, at last, the genuine proportion of the periodic times to the proportion of the spheres –

But she look back and after a long time she came [Vergil, Eclogue I, 27 and 29.]

Finding North from unclear sky around July.

Finding North from unclear sky around July.

(Blog No.130).

#find North, #finding North, #direction, #by stars, #Vega, #Deneb, #Altair, #July, #unclear sky

Around July there are some bright stars shining the whole night. They include Vega, Altair and Deneb. These three stars can be used to locate the Celestial poles in the sky and subsequently the terrestrial principal directions.

1. Celestial poles and terrestrial directions.

Sun on Celestial Sphere

Figure: The Sun, the Moon and the stars are attached to a Celestial sphere which encloses the Earth like a giant rotating cage.
To an Earth bound observer, the Earth appears to be enclosed by a large rotating spherical shell called the Celestial Sphere with all stars attached to it. This shell rotates around the Earth nearly one revolution every 24 hous. This rotation leaves unmoved only 2 points on the shell. They are called the Northern and Southern Celestial poles of the Celestial Sphere.

If an observer can locate one Celestial pole then the projection to the ground of the line from him to the pole will be along his terrestrial North South direction.

2. Locating the Northern Celestial Pole in Northern hemisphere.

Figure: Polar Inversion map for the Northern Celestial hemisphere. The map should be read with its July marking (at 4 o’clock position) on its rim pointing towards the ground.
An observer has to align the polar map with marking for July on the rim (at 4 o’clock position) pointing downward. An observer in Northern latitude above 30 degrees will see the rotation of three bright stars Vega, Deneb, Capella then Big Dipper constellations in that order.

Vega and Deneb go highest around 24 hr.

The bisector of the line Vega Deneb goes through the Northern Celestial pole. The pole is almost of equal distances of 45 degrees from each of them.

3. Locating the Southern Celestial pole in Southern hemisphere.

Figure: Polar Inversion map for the Northern Celestial hemisphere. The map should be read with its July marking (at 8 o’clock position) on its rim pointing towards the ground.
An observer has to align the polar map with marking for July on the rim (at 8 o’clock position) pointing downward. An observer in Southern hemisphere or on the tropical zone would see the Southern Cross Pointers highest around 18 hr, then Antares around 20 hr. Achernar is seen rising before Sunrise. The midpoint between the Pointers and Achernar is almost the Southern Celestial pole.

4. Locating the Celestial poles from tropical stars.

A observer in the tropic should already know the very bright star Bootes and the bright star Antares in the Scorpius constellation used in April.

Figure 1: Photograph of Spica (near the bottom edge), Bootes Arcturus (near the right edge) and Antares (1/8 of the width from the left edge) forming a triangle. Celestial North is at 01 o’clock position (30 degree clockwise from vertical) in this photo. There is a very bright planet (1/2 from left edge, 1/3 from bottom) traveling on the Ecliptic in this photo.

Figure 2: The Mercator map of the sky for inhabitants of Tropical Zone. North direction is on its top. 24hr of R.A. is near the center and R.A. increases towards the left (East) of the map. The map is to be read South side up in the Southern hemisphere.

On the trailing side of Bootes Arcturus and Antares, (click the above Mercator map for details) there is a bright star of equal distances of 60 degrees to both of them. This star is Altair, which is as bright as Antares.

Following the line Antares to Bootes Arcturus, turning anti-clockwise by 90 degrees at Bootes Arcturus and traveling for 60 degrees takes us to Vega, which is as bright as Bootes Arcturus. The line (Antares, Arcturus) is nearly at right angle to the almost straight line (Spica, Arcturus, Vega).

The line (Bootes Arcturus, Antares) is nearly parallel to the line (Vega, Altair) which lie slightly nearer to Bootes Arcturus.

Vega is as bright as Bootes Arcturus while Altair is as bright as Antares.

Sky map Northern 3/4 sphere

Figure 3: Polar Inversion map of Northern Celestial 3/4 sphere. The line (Vega, Altair) is 30 degrees long and is nearly parallel to the line (Bootes Arcturus, Antares) which is 60 degrees long.

Rotate the line (Altair, Vega) about Altair by 10 degrees counter-clockwise give the great circle through the two Celestial poles. Northern Celestial pole is nearer to Vega and is 80 degrees from Altair. Southern Celestial pole is nearer to Altair and is 100 degrees from Altair.

Trailing 2 hour behind Vega is the bright star Deneb (see the Mercator star-map). (Vega, Altair, Deneb) is known as the Summer Triangle. The bisector of the angle Vega, Altair, Deneb points to the Northern Celestial pole.

Bright Stars 20 Plus 2

Figure 4: Table of 20 brightest +2 stars in order of appearance.

5. Visibility of the stars.

Altair is visible for nearly the whole night in July. The Summer Triangle is visible for nearly the whole night in July. Click on the Mercator map for details.

6. CAUTION with planets
The Moon and planets travel on the Ecliptic. Observers should take care not to mistake any planet for Antares in the Scorpius constellation.
A planet is always brighter than any star, including Sirius, moves from night to night, and does not twinkle in clear sky.

The Parasites of Western Economy, Part 6: Robbers of pension money in Australia.

There is currently a national scandal in Australia about the robbery of pension funds of retirees by Banking and Financial Service Sector.

1. Preparation ground work for the Grand Robbery.

1. Non profit Superannuation (Pension) Associations such as NML (National Mutual Life Association), MLC (Mutual Life Corporation), AMP (Australian Mutual Providence Society) have been justly or unjustly dissolved, bought off around 1998 giving capital accumulated or generations to existing members and management.

This is just like dissolving all Catholic Churches to give their huge cash value to existing members and their leaders. Would you think of that as an immoral robbery by existing members and management of the heritage intended not only for them but also for other future members?

From then on, there are only for profits superannuation fund managers.

2. Next. the Australian government made laws forcing all working people to have compulsory superannuation contributions.

3. Banks and entities with unknown reputation are licensed to manage superannuation funds for everyone.

4. Government makes auditing requirements such that it is uneconomical for individual to manage his own superannuation fund.

2. Count Dracula operating the captive blood bank.

With such system already set up, ordinary people have to rely on banks and entities with unknown reputation. These organizations then play the rough game in gouging the savings placed in superannuation funds.

The charges for managing superannuation from these organizations are [1]:

1.Entry and exit fees of 5% chargeable when you join them and when you leave them (it is a captive market). If you decide to let someone else manage your fund, you will lose another 5% again. If you change the manager every year then you will lose 5% every year on top of all other fees.

How can they justify taking 5% of your hard-earned money just for opening the book?

2. Yearly management fees: This may be at around 3% of your money while your money may earn only 2% from investment on the Share Market. So you may end up with a loss of 1% every year!

How can they justify that level of fees given that owner’s instruction to them is only invest according to the Share Market Index, or alternatively only invest in Government bonds?

3. An Australian feature is that the fund managers advise their clients (when and on what?). There have been advice fees of $1000 per annum even to clients whose deaths the managers have known for more than 10 years [11].

Why don’t those thieves charging fees for no service go to jail like any smaller time pick-pockets? [12,13]

3. A national scandal of robbery of retirees.

There is no wonder why bankers (meaning the CEO of the banks, not the ordinary bank tellers) are given outrageous incomes [14] while retirees keep getting poorer and poorer [15-19].
