Informative video into the history of trying to tax the mining industry in Australia, and the extensive lobbying and media control that the mining industry has. Would love to know your opinions on this.

Just because it's hard doesn't mean it can't be done... I feel like he's got a defeatist attitude toward politics, where if something fails it's not worth trying again. But, social change takes time and persistence. I think being moderate right now is a pretty sure way to lose elections. Because, people aren't happy. People are wanting changes.
