Is it just me..or is anyone else angry?


I will admit that there may be some hormonal changes to blame for my current anger but I'm not sure that it is that simple.
Yesterday and today , a few things have happened and I AM PISSED OFF ABOUT THEM!!
The WHO announces that the world is now in the 6th stage of the swine flu - a global pandemic. They also qualify their statement with the announcement that one of their considerations in moving to this stage is the extreme, rapid spread of the virus in Australia.
Kevin Rudd and Nicola Roxon then speak to the media and say that just because THE REST OF THE WORLD views the situation as a pandemic doesn't mean that Australia has to. And not to worry.
Oh well, hope I don't catch it then . Swine flu might be tricky in the first trimester of pregnancy.
Last week, after miniscule growth in the economy, Kevin Rudd announced that due to that growth, Australia is basically the only country in the world not in a recession.
WELL YOU WOULD HOPE THE ECONOMY WOULD GROW IF YOU PUMPED TWO STIMULUS PACKAGES INTO IT!!!
So, I guess that means that this government ( who I voted for ) is taking the 'It's not happening approach'. This approach appears to mean that if they tell us something isn't happening - then it's just not. Despite OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE to the contrary.
Is that helpful? Does that move towards facing and solving problems and improving things for everyone?
When an individual conducts themselves like that it's called DENIAL!
More of my fascinating rant later. Off to punch a wall.
