My previous post ended with a possible cause of our fading industry.
It questioned Abbott,s ability to lead this country.
And his party
The link be forewarned, if acted on will be such a big country wide protest, even Tony,s own team must, in time question what such a conservative man is doing leading a once Liberal party.
Murdock? history will confirm his robber press Baron status and looking back see this crime against free press for what it is .
Murdock,s own press is far more biased indeed vile than any other

I wonder if there are any figures on how many watch the Australia TV ?
Still $225 million is a lot of money and I think we can expect to see
a lot more "Holy Cows" go to the slaughter house.

YOU DON'T HAVE THE MONEY !

Belly,
Murdoch's an amateur in comparison to the ABC/SBS outfits.

And to think Bazz that we here in Australia are about to place ye another burden on our transport industry, the backbone of our entire nation, with a great big carbon tax.

As a nation we suffer from many problems other nations don't , Distance, small population in comparison to land mass and the highest basic wage rates.

Adding yet another expense to the transport industry is simply foolish.

I here the min wage has been increased in the US by a staggering 40%. that's gotta hurt!

Dear rehctub,

Come on mate, expand your mind out the the little mantra you have got going. Doom and gloom because the US wants to raise the minimum wage?

Ask yourself the question of why German auto workers not only get twice the wage of those in the US but also get 8 weeks holidays compared to 2 in the US yet still manage to sell twice the number of cars.

Who wouldn't want this as a direction for Australia to head in? If only we had the brains and vision in Canberra to implement it. Instead we are going to see calls to drop the minimum wage and reduce other conditions. A dive for the bottom when we should be aiming for the top.

Steele. It does amaze that when in trouble the ones at the bottom are used and it seems abused. Ive said before the 'fish rots at the head'.
Before the Govt even considers donating millions upon millions of dollars we dont have, do they actually investigate each company? Are the CEO's and OCE's and well, basically the ones who arent receiving a minimum wage, being over paid, over compensated, given company credit cards to use willy nilly? Oh.. sounds familiar. Power and wealth breed greedy people. Common sense would go a long way.
