Paul Kelly said it well...
"I'm so afraid for my country
There's an ill-wind blowing no good.
So many lies in the name of history
They want to improve my neighbourhood.
I'm so afraid about my brother
He just gets sadder every day
We gotta take care of each other
Or else we're gonna have to pay.
In the land of the little kings
There's a price on everything
And everywhere the little kings
Are getting away with murder.
I was born in a lucky country
Every day I hear the warning bells
They're so busy building palaces
They don't see the poison in the wells.
In the land of the little kings
Profit is the only thing
And everywhere the little kings
Are getting away with murder
In the land of the little kings
Justice don't mean a thing
Abd everywhere the little kings
Are getting away with murder.
"Little Kings" Paul Kelly Words and Music

There's not much else to say now. We have a government elected on a platform of racism, fear and stupidity.
