@jhaue Given the billionaires who run Australia, can't see it happening.
We're a trump nation, no matter whom is in power. Can only see Australia possibly changing if Greens were majority vote, and that has never happened. So...
@ghost_shit it brings to mind Jello Biafra spoken word/quotes: If voting changed anything, it would be illegal.

The Landlord’s Game

" Monopoly’s roots trace back to The Landlord’s Game (1903), created by Elizabeth Magie to critique monopolistic land ownership.

It featured two sets of rules – one emphasising wealth accumulation, the other wealth distribution. The aim was to demonstrate how different policy levers, taxing income versus taxing land, affect economic outcomes of players.

The two sets of rules in the Landlord’s Game demonstrate how wealth is either concentrated in the hands of landlords (taxing income) or is more fairly distributed across society (taxing land).

Monopoly reflects the world’s economic systems, embodying both the dream of wealth and the realities of financial inequality. "

>>...since some 96 percent of Texas land is private property, access to a place like Hunt, the town of about 1,100 that sits at the confluence of the North and South Forks, is rare. It has become tradition for generations of families to return to the same retreat centers, campsites, vacation rentals, cabins, and RV parks throughout Texas’s exceptionally long swimming season. <<

One of the other activities to take place on 5th July is this ....

Free Range is a celebration of joyful meandering through places known and unknown, regarding them as spaces or adventures yet to be defined. It is not a guided tour

As part of Ignite Liverpool’s theme – Who owns the land and how did they get it? We're delighted to be participating in Liverpool Makefest.

Like its sibling event Joy Diversion, Free Range’s underlying theme is one of ownership: how we as citizens have rights to and ownership of public space, but also how we have ownership of our own experiences. Our cities have become transactional affairs where we pass through them to get from one place to another, where our presence is legitimised by work or consumption. Yet this functional concept of the city leads to a certain sterility and soullessness, where those who don't wish to spend are unwelcome.

The biosecurity officers' fight against fire ants and allegations of threats, harassment and stalking
A Glen Turner Déjà vu

“We’ve had threats of ‘If you come on my property, I’ll shoot you’. ‘If you try and come on my property, I’ll set my dog on you...Australian police are routinely escorting biosecurity officers onto private properties after they reported being threatened with dogs and guns. In cases when people were “incredibly hostile”, program staff would “proactively engage with the police to escort us and to keep the peace and to keep everyone safe in that environment, because we need to complete the treatment”

'There will be many #footpaths simply lost'

August 19, 2024
Emily Unia & Miguel Roca-Terry

"Thousands of miles of footpaths could be lost due to a massive backlog in local councils dealing with applications, campaigners say.

"The government has set a deadline of 2031 for all rights of way in England to be added to an official map.

"But data gathered by the BBC suggests nearly 8,000 requests to get public paths and bridleways added to the map have not been processed – and some date back to the 1980s.

"The government said processing applications was the responsibility of local authorities."

[...]

"'We’ve got tens of thousands of miles of public rights of way that are not recorded or protected across #England and #Wales.'

"'If we have a deadline then there will be many paths that are simply lost.'"
