    "Roon if there was "equality before the law' welfare bludgers wouldn't be getting stolen taxes and would be expected to pay taxes like everyone else."

    Have you ever mentioned before how much you hate welfare bludgers? I can't recall if you have but in case you haven't there are plenty of other "welfare bludgers" that don't ever see the insides of a Centerlink office.

    Half the legal system would have to be "welfare dependent"
    as drug crimes are mostly non crimes, yet the legal system is supported by their continued existence.
    What would happen if drugs were legalised? You could sack half the welfare dependent police,judicial and corrections industries. Then they'd have to go and get real jobs.
    All the drug dealers would also have to go out and get real jobs too as who would pay their markups?

    All too logical so will never happen. The more people financially dependent on a "problem" the less likely it is for that "problem' to ever be solved...

    "equality before the law' What planet did you see this on."

    In the context of what I wrote, it means that there should not be special laws for special classes of people ie. crimes are crimes no matter who commits them. Also, once we start making special laws for special classes of people we have to be careful that we aren't the next "special class".
    This is a very dangerous precedent...

    What happens if in a few years some smartarse lawyer uses this legislation(provided the high court doesn't negate it)as a legal basis for another attack on a group that is out of favour..?


    cheers
