spc sack 73 workers, page-57

Doesn't anyone realise that as a global economy we will end up being all the same level unless our government takes a stance to protect the country with import duties so high it's uneconomical to import.

That said we must also have the choice of products and the discipline to function with seasonal fluctuations.

Woolies import cheap and probably unhealthy produce because they make MONEY!

Joe Average farmer goes out of business because he can't match the price. But WE are all guilty for buying the cheap overseas brands. And why? Because we also have to pay expenses, pay for holiday's and all in all live our 1st world lifestyles.

So get all these soon to be ex Holden workers, start up some businesses and food companies, provide local produce and make it so expensive to by anything imported unless we don't produce it here.

Look at it like a 457 Visa of food production and availability.

High wages and cheap imports is ruining our lives.

Doesn't anyone remember when fruit was seasonally available? You know the real reason for the first box of Cherries to be auctioned off.

99.9% of people and governments have no foresight.
