	Agree here. The only point in your whole posting.

	I'd like to see some stats to support your claim about crime
	being down too.

	Frankly I find adults to be generally more hypocritical	
	and two faced than kids.

	Of course if you're a heavy handed authoritarian prick
	you will find that kids are 'respectful' to your face
	and derogatory behind your back.

	And I don't know what *you* were like as a kid, 
	so maybe in your case it's true.

	No, but not being a racist I don't *deserve* to be spat on at work.

	Called that by mindless racist jerks who can't tell an
	Armenian from an Ainu.

	I have.

	I used to think that the third world service with first world
	fares offered by Cityrail was due primarily to management/govt
	incompetence and bastardry, with perhaps a small factor due
	to a few apathetic moronic little Hitlers working there.

	Since starting to read this NG, I have come to the conclusion
	that while perhaps not the majority, moronic little Hitlers
	are the norm at Cityrail. Even if the government can be 
	made to offer a credible service, it will still be provided
	by tiny minded racist bastards who want a uniform to throw
	their pathetic weight around in. I guess the rail workers
	with enough brains to see what's going on and get organised
	have already been gotten rid of.

	So there will be no battle over privatisation, it's already
	lost.
