"I did it because I think Australia can make a difference,'' Caton said. ''We were the first to give women the vote, we were the first to come up with the Conciliation and Arbitration Commission, we developed the cochlear ear implant, but we've been becoming timid. And look what happened. Cate Blanchett appears in an ad and gets her head kicked for being a rich bitch.
Can I be ironic? Cate Blanchett is in favour of the carbon tax because she is rich, Malcolm Turnbull is in favour of an emissions trading scheme because he is rich, Kevin Rudd is in favour of one because he has a rich wife - it's a conspiracy. Apparently rich people aren't entitled to express a view unless they are billionaires complaining about a mining tax.''
Maybe some people want Australia to start coming last instead of being a front runner in new technology.
