"really? how did you earn the money you label "mine"?"
By working.
"from your employer?"
When I had an employer yes, when self employed, no.
"how does your employer earn their money?"
By buying my labour which I then use to help them make money.
"which natural national resources do they exploit?"
Human beings.
"from your farm? did your ancestors take the land from the Aborigines or did they squatter on it or peg it?"
No on both counts. Even if I answered 'yes' I hope you are not going to try to hold me accountable for what someone else has done, hundreds of years before my birth which I had no say in?
"from a mine, which was pegged? just because some land is pegged, is it really "yours"? "
No again.
"did you earn your money independent from the rest of Australia?"
No, but so what? Are you going to argue that just because we have a society where the government does at least part of it's job (builds roads, supplies water through the tap etc) that I somehow 'owe' them for that? That's what they are THERE to do. And besides nobody, certainly not I protest when the government does the right thing with their tax receipts, it's when they do the wrong things, which are legion, that I am complaining about, the main one at this point in time being that they have stopped creating money and started to borrow it instead thereby raising out taxation to absurd levels and making intergenerational slaves out of all of us. But the amount of govt. rorting and wastage is legendary and whenever they spend, it's our money they are spending, not theirs.
"what exactly is this "my" money you are talking about?"
It is the money I receive from various sources that I trade my labor for. My labour, not the governments.
