One of my favourite sections in our daily newspaper (Adelaide Advertiser) is the letters to the editor. On any given day, you will find more common sense, intelligence, wit and foresight around the average breakfast table than the whole of the houses of parliament. Today, a letter from Kevin M. made me laugh out loud when he suggested that we “outsource” the Australian Government. He claimed it would be relatively easy to get people working in call centres in either India or the Philippines, to hurl abuse at each other for hours at a time! Well, it would certainly be cheaper, because they would not be flying around the world with their families every other week, and they would definitely know more about living in the real world than our politicians do. Good one Kev, its people like you that keep us all sane.
