Fitting observation for fitting times. ( can't deny that I didn't just try doing a mini experiment to see if i got any lessened sound ha ha)

This was not a scientific observation; more tongue in cheek I think. Thanks.

First rate observation my friend. With pockets full of our tax dollars sent out to be laundered by their corrupt allies then gifted back to them they are too busy talking about getting ever more and more to ever listen to us.

An observation that many of us cannot fail to notice! We have heard of corrupt politicians, but that would just be the tip of the iceberg. Having said that, I must admit that there are also good and honest ones. // paul

Yes there are good ones but to be able to get anything passed they have to form Coalitions and in doing so they become beholding to others that are not always as good and honest. Thank you for the comment

G'day Donald... These people appear to be the same the whole world over Donald. Right now, our Prime Minister is the laughing stock of the world. Thanks Donald - Lindsay

That's a good one. Also, the only place some of them can fit their bribe stuffed wallets is in their mouths.
