Right now the clowns we vote for are tossing up wether to have a vote on same sex marriage whilst our Auto industry is crumbling before our eyes.
If they want us to vote on something worthwhile, lets vote on pouring tax payer dollars into design and manufacture of our own Australian cars.
100% local content.

Then as a country we need to get back to the mindset that the people who built this country had, buying Aussie made and being proud of the product, not buying some import piece of **** because its trendy or new.

We can make small cars, we can make SUV's, we can make dual cabs, utes, V8's and so on and so on.

Australians are weak as **** who believe their own BS and justify it with the party line to seem educated.

Look at the umpiring in the AFL, we all know its rigged, yet we still roll up and pay $30 to see it, boycott a few rounds and see who takes notice.
Look at V8SC, we all know its rigged, yet we still roll up every year and pay the $80 to see it, boycott a few rounds and see who takes notice.
Look at the price of fuel, we all know were getting ripped off, yet we still roll into the petrol station and pay $30 more for a tank than we should, dont buy it for a fortnight, catch a train or bus or walk or cycle and see who takes notice.

Australia, stand up for something FFS before its too late.

Our forefathers would be disgusted with what weve allowed this country to become.

Australia, the lucky country. Yeah, lucky to still be noticed.

Only one problem to your plan, how do you get the clowns (public) to buy Australian products?

enough said!
