Individual,

Not sure what you mean by your post about our "drug"
problem. Australia faces quite a few challenges in
it's future - as the Intergenerational Report 2021
tells us - including our ageing population.

sure what you mean by your post about our "drug" problem.
Foxy,
You plain & simply can not be serious ? Your query smacks of the ultimate ignorance.
If I somehow misread your words I apologise unreservedly !

individual,

Could you at least give us some specifics.

Hi Foxy,

All I can say is Australia like a truculent child is still tied to Britain's apron string, but its only one string and its very loose. With the demise of Elizabeth Windsor. which given her age is not that far off, Australia can then take its rightful place as a fully independent nation in the world. But Unfortunaly we have a few other strings attached which are holding us back as well. Not the least, in my view, the insanity of the ANZAS Treaty.

Dear Paul,

I don't understand why you object to the ANZAS Treaty.
We surely need the security that it provides?
Where would we be without the US and NZ in times of
crisis and attack?

Foxy,
Where would we be?
Up the well known creek without a paddle and with the caulking coming out of the seams.
