Of course there are still those misguided people who are of the opinion that Australia is still a democracy.
A country which previously had a few very wealthy a few very poor and the majority were the middle income democracy.
We are now a country of a lot more rich and a massive amount of very poor and a very few middle income with a government system that has run away with its own power to the point of being dictators with the public having no power to control their own destiny
