God bless America, and God help Australia!

Ah, Australian politicians! ... blowing smoke up American arse since 1945.

Nonsense.

China has plundered Australia’s industry and manufacturing sectors following our involvement in the 1970s’ LIMA Declaration, which has slashed our manufacturing security from 25 per cent of GDP to little more than 5 per cent today.

And no longer is China a developing nation, as they still claim to be, like they were in the 1970s.

They’re now the world’s largest manufacturer and exporter, accounting for 29 per cent of global output, and boast having the second-largest number of millionaires on the globe.

When Australian politicians sacrificed our manufacturing sector, we provided the Chinese Communist Party the financial leg-up to afford having the biggest army in the world and a navy that boasts the largest number of vessels across the globe.

I argue that China only “plundered Australian industry “ after being invited too by Hawk and Keating to take all they wanted?

Indeed
Everyone was hoodwinked by China, from Nixon and Whitlam through Clinton and Hawke to O'Bama and Albo and Penny Wrong.

T'd bet you've never bitched when backing up the ute at Bunnings, KMart, Target, et al... when fitting out your kitchen, home, toolshed or car... for a couple of hundred bucks all up.

Now you're breast-beating after the fact, I'd bet.... Dem dang evil Chinee

Like a gambler railing against the pokies...

Pauline represents Australia

She represents rapists, criminals and kiddie fiddlers.

How many 3rd world rapists & kiddy fiddlers has the Albanese govt bought into Australia in his current term?

Unvetted refugees & asylum seekers who have gone on to commit the very crimes you "accuse" others of.

Import the 3rd world become the 3rd world.
.

‘’Albanese as a Catholic belongs to the church that has seen more child abuse carried out by it priests & bishops than any other - globally’’

Care to give a relevant reference?

Stop being lazy. You know it's the truth.

The only edit I would make is Christian religion.

Because we know there's another religion that actually condones/allows child sexual abuse & forced child marriage.

Nearly everything is made in China.

So that juts makes Franks & Daves point - not yours.

Yes, of course... dem dang Chinee... forcing us to live in our world of plenty beyond the imaginings of our entire ancestral forbears since we swang from the trees... The burdens we bear. eh!

Guess you'll be switching to non-Chinese, more expensive brands even if you have to traipse across the city to find them, eh!

Did you not follow what I said in the highlight?

There are a few local hardware stores I frequent instead of Bunnings .....

but oddly enough the also have a lot of stock "made in China".

So where do you buy those expensive non Chinese alternatives? Roll Eyes

Search longer and harder... like your forebears would have.

I buy Chinese-made stuff... If that's what's in the store... but I ain't bitching or breast-beating about it.

More to the point, why doesn't China play by WTO rules? Why did we a FTA with such a blatantly dishonest bully of a country does lies, cheats and steals? Why did anyone believe that the Chinese are " just like any other country"? Why does anyone STILL believe such an obvious falsehood?

Would you have Albanese do a Morrison and call the Chinese out for it? Start tariffing Chinese goods, maybe... start a trade war...

How much iron ore could African states and Brazil ship to China?
