Only one thing for it, elect Dick Smith

His catch cry is "sustainability"

The planet is a finite system, continuous growth is literally impossible, so WTF do all our leaders keep chasing the fantasy ?

Duhh, "jobs and growth"

Unless we can make Australia an economic powerhouse first, then the concept of a large Australian population is poor.

Yes agree with that. So far, mass immigration since the 70's has only benefited the Reserve Bank of Australia lending thin air money to the fed government for social security payments

"I care not who makes the laws of a nation, as long as I control the money" - Who was it who said that?

Lib and Lab socialism goes hand in hand with massive debt. They have no idea how to set conditions for an economy to match a large future population. Interest rates are about to rise. Housing is unaffordable and they haven't found an an answer to it. Regional areas suffer unreliable electricity and internet supply. Many rural towns and villages have no town water. There's all the taxes and charges that rise nearly every year with no tangible benefit to many residents. Roads throughout Australia are second rate at best

My NBN satellite internet was pretty good up until a month ago, but some NBN idiot decided to change it to another satellite, requiring a new different dish, a smaller one, now the internet reception is crap and drops out in inclement weather, never did that before with the old satellite, I was told the new one will be faster, it's no faster and it crashes. Some farmers are setting up their own internet service via Telstra and giving the NBN the flick
