Hi, I'm Marshall. This is my blog. My contribution to the interweb. Hopefully I won't be the only person reading this. I have something to say! I'm an Australian, so most of my posts will have an Aussie flavour about them.

It is becoming more and more common these days for people to glady relieve themselves of any responsibility for decision making in their lives. Less often do we challenge 'the establishment' or do we challenge 'common sense'. Western Governments are becoming better and better at restricting the little freedoms in favour of the so-called "greater good".
And we just don't just let this happen - in fact we encourage it. We beg the government to take responsibility for raising our children. We love the fact that the government is helping look after reconciliation and promoting multi-culturalism. The government censors what we read, what we listen to on the radio, what we watch in cinemas, on dvd and on TV. The Government even decides what computer games we are allowed to play.
Of course, there are some basic areas where we have to let the Government make the call. I'm not an anarchist, and I would not be happy for individuals to make decisions on my behalf in their best interests. But there needs to be a balance.
Deregulate yourself will tackle a different topic every post. It will ask you to ask questions, make decisions - at least - at least - at least ask you to pause from time to time and think "What Do I Really Want?"
