What happens to all the rubber that wears off our tyres as we drive around?
    17+

    The edges of our roads should have piles of worn-off rubber everywhere, but I don’t ever see it.

    Why is becoming an economy more important than a society?
    22+

    We are constantly outsourcing social tasks, child care, aged care, any care actually. Our level of tolerance and sense of community is constantly diminishing, causing more depression and social problems. Why aren’t we encouraging mothers to spend time with their kids instead of putting them in care? Why aren’t we supporting adult children in looking after their aging parents. Why don’t we help each other more? Is it all about money? Appearances? Lack of tolerance?

    Is the Australian gun control system working or are we over regulating honest individuals and industry to pander to an emotive argument
    2+

    Millions of dollars are spent every year regulating firearms ownership for no obvious measurable or verifiable benefits. Has it stopped massacres on Australian soil and are the increases/decreases in crime related? Also with the claims by the government that lone wolf terrorist attacks are becoming increasingly more likely do we need to rethink self defence? To quote David Leyonhjelm are we “a nation of victims”

    If a piece of meat is grown in a lab (and was never part of an animal) is it actually still ‘meat’?
    13+

    As a constantly-lapsing vegetarian, I am interested in both the science and philosophy of meat. I know many others are too.

    How do first generation Australians or recent migrants to Australia justify supporting highly restrictive migration policies?
    12+

    The sheer number of culturally diverse members of our community who show up to anti-Islam and anti-migration rallies flies in the face of the notion that such movements are only supported by those identifying as Anglo Australian.

    Who gets to decide?

    Like, when there is more than one opinion at play… and our beliefs are based on what we feel to be intuitive truths, how the hell do we make a decision? Is it just power?

    The absence of integrity has pervaded every part of society. How do we inspire and infuse integrity, from here on?
    11+

    Lack of integrity has led to self-interest before social interest. As a species, if we continue we will obliterate ourselves and earth. This includes endless personal consumption, regardless of the environmental impact to the world, money before medical care, power and glory of national leaders before a love of and duty to their people, country and the world. Extreme poverty can be truly alleviated if world leaders would work together. War works, while the arsenal is manufactured by countries without integrity. Banks make gluttonous profits, while so many slave over a mortgage all their lives. Those born with the innate capacity of cognitive brilliance, who become scientists, leaders, inventors, business achievers, should be the carers of those with much less ability. How do we inspire and deliver integrity again?
