The carbon tax, disguised as a 'safeguard mechanism’, also part of Comrade Chalmers' plans, could well be the death of regional Australia.

More than 80% of industries targeted by this abomination are in regional areas. Near enough to 90% of them are critical to Australia’s economy - coal, gas, mining.

"given that the last of them (Indigenous Australians) died out over two centuries ago." This is the typical non truth peddled by far right extremists to justify non recognition of our first Australians. Maybe ttbn thinks his ancestors shot the bloody lot a couple of hundred years ago. Not so buddy!

...Meanwhile, Chairman Albanese has been out celebrating with his Chinese mates.

He said:

"It was great to discuss how my government is helping small businesses to succeed".

That's a sick joke. If Chalmers gets to put his Big Government, Big Business, Government Picks into operation, small businesses will suffocated. His Chinese mates would be well aware that small business and Labor are not compatible.

Can anyone explain what the stupid indigenous post has to do with this topic?

Collaboration among governments, businesses, unions and superannuation controllers could easily lead to crony capitalism, and businesses supporting government policies in order to win government contracts.

Already the least efficient sections of the economy - health, aged care, education, to name a few - are regulated by or run by governments.

And, it should be noted, there is no mention of entrepreneurship in Chalmer's ravings. Politicians will replace them in selecting what they think we need; and politicians are not qualified to do this, as their 'winner picking' in the past has proved.

What Chalmers proposes is too much like the central planning of totalitarian regimes.
