We really dont have freedoms like the USA where they are enshrined
in The Bill of Rights.

We only have a vague Constitution which even The High Court
struggles with at times!

Geoffrey Robertson QC has been advocating an Aussie Bill of Rights#
since the Republican Referendum which would have fitted nicely
with a Republic, IMO, but it has fallen of deaf ears because
I suspect its against the interests of big business and the Legal
Fraternity.Instead we has a load of cobbled together laws
that mostly restrict individual rights.

So if you are a Libertarian then I suggest that you cast your vote carefully because
all the major Parties are anti-Libertarian based on their past legislations and
their respective political philosophies
