Things run better under a benevolent dictatorship

June 9, 2026

The old saying remains true and the significant word is not dictatorship its benevolent. The feeling that we are all in this together is what, its not the system that is the driving force behind stability it’s the benevolence, its the feeling that even if you’re a little worse of than your neighbour if you work hard you will get there and your neighbour wont get in your way. Will help . .When you’re struggling and you see the multi-million dollar wages and some of the mansions, luxury yachts and cars of others who pay little or no tax that things get angry. As a retired tradie who owns a house and lives comfortably on his super i can tolerate a PM from modest background who has worked his way up to a harbour mansion but I know people who struggle to pay their rent who are angry and considering voting for people who will support them even less. Democracy 2026 isn’t working for them.
