Hmmmm nay. Mostly apathetic bunch. We aren't blessed with a real tradition / concept of liberty... people aren't
'dumb' but they aren't exactly switched on either. We're behind the US in terms of dumbing the population down, i.e schools, cultural saturation etc.. we travel alot, and that helps wonders. The Australian internet really lacks... (Telecommunications used to be Nationalized - go figure.. and now it's an Oligopoly) there are hardly any websites just for Australians, so we're all split up around the web.. make's it hard with such a relatively small population.. but I & a fellow supporter will be changing that;

... hope to kick off the activism here in terms of Liberty - get people together, network.
Anyway I seem to have rambled.. lol. Not many follow it as closely as me. I wouldn't care at all really
(same old US screwin' the world) if I never found Ron Paul... most shrug, and go 'it doesn't affect me'... they don't see the link from the Fed -> price of oil though.. and how the Us affects the entire world.. so I do have a vested interest.. if Rp took over.. and the US followed the constitution.. mannn oh man, with the advocation of the gold standard, etc etc... lot of the world would follow.
Apart from the active self informers, people get their news from the msm.. Murdoch owns 70%, and the other like 20% is fairfax? newspaper, television, radio... state MSM reallllllllly....
