In the old East Germany, there was a mass movement against the repressive state

accept 'unsigned' (according to the Health Insurance Act) referrals, what is
Medicare Australia going to do? Sack them all? Put them all in jail? Demand
repayment from millions of their patients?
Oliver,
Reminds me of a book I read in the Vietnam War days, entitled "civilian
resistance as a national defence".
The problem is that this sort of conspiracy between officials and
dissenters can only go so far. The beans will get spilled sometime, say
by the Auditor General, and then the shit will hit the fan and someone
will be victimised, so that the rest will be encouraged to cease and desist.
Better to march en masse to the Bastille and tell the Governor to surrender.
