If you don't know much about it already, here's a few very good reasons
why you should vote *NO* to Constitutional Recognition of Local Governments.



If you think that the response to Q.3 of the 1988 Federal Referendum
should have been a CRYSTAL CLEAR SIGNAL to federal and state government
corporations that 67% of the electorate voted NO because they

   DID NOT WANT ...

   "for the states to provide for the establishment and continuance
    of a system of Local Government",

   ...then vote NO.


   If you strongly RESENT that Local Governments were introduced by
   the States and endorsed by Canberra in direct contravention of the
   will of the Australian People, as expressed in the 1988 Referendum,

   ...then vote NO.



If you UNDERSTAND that Local Governments are all CORPORATIONS each with
a BOARD OF DIRECTORS and SHAREHOLDERS and that the Local Government's
Board Of Directors must always operate in the BEST INTEREST of the
SHAREHOLDERS

   AND

YOU KNOW that you are NOT ONE OF THOSE SHAREHOLDERS....
...then vote NO.



If you UNDERSTAND that for a Local Government Board of Directors to ACT
in the BEST INTEREST of the COMMUNITY would often result in a CONFLICT
OF INTEREST for which the SHAREHOLDERS could SUE the DIRECTORS for
breach of duty
...then vote NO.

I read your email as very strange spam as you provide no context.  So that everyone else can catch up I found this on google.  

http://m.smh.com.au/opinion/politics/eleventh-hour-for-action-to-change-federal-funding-to-local-councils-20130128-2dgwi.html

It's about a recommendation for a referendum to restore direct funding to local councils after a high court change to the federal government spending laws.  

Now, where did I put my teacup...
