Hi Albie Manton in Darwin

"Save the Chinese populace rising and insisting en masse that democracy replace their current government, Australia will become known as New South Guandong."

That won't be the immigrants fault that will be our governments fault.

"One of the major costs in manufacturing is labour costs. That is why manufacturing has been moving to countries that pay low wages."

Capitalists will always be in competition with other capitalists.
'If my company doesn't manufacture and import from China my rival competitor will, and I'll go out of business.'
The government makes the policies, they are the ones who screwed things up.

The multinationals can be registered in some foreign tax haven (paying no tax), and operate in any country, with budgets and revenue more than some countries

All we have is divisive issues and nothing to be unified about
Patriotism is almost defined as white racism, if your not displaying token support to black people with 'recognitions', and a love of Muslims, homosexuals and trans people.

We should've unified around a common cause.
'Unity in Self-Sufficiency'

"The government makes the policies, they are the ones who screwed things up."
And who votes the government into govern?
The people!
It doesn't matter how you shake it, it's the populace that bears both responsibility and consequence.
You can have a expose presentation on the Australian political horizon on one TV channel, and a football or cricket match on another.
Who do you suppose is going to have the majority viewers?
If you want to cry about something, cry about the voter ignorance.
Australia, as a country, is no more than an abused child in a relationship with it's abuser, the US and UK, not China.
It was US & UK interests and shareholders that relocated Australian manufacturing elsewhere while the Australian populace was watching sport.
Australia is no more than a holes in the ground that offers you the opportunity of choosing your beliefs.
Get used to it!

The people!
Special Delvery,
Not quite, Union led people did !

How much more proof do people need to get rubbed into their face till they see that intellectuals are largely ineffectual & the only thing they’re good at is making stupid decisions & unworkable policies.
