Howard to me - it the perfect example of how to do massive damage to a nation - but, that damage not become apparent for decades

it's like finding out 20 or 30 years later with a late bearing nut or fruit tree that you planted the wrong tree back 20 years ago and have been watering and feeding and pruning for 2 decades only to find - wrong bloody tree.

What we are seeing now - the total lack of high tech development in Oz - the dying of Oz in an era which is really now breaking from a canter into a gallop and we have not even got the milk cart horse -

that was Howards biggest mistake

we needed back then to put things on the ground to grow -high tech industries - THEN we needed the economic zones, the free education, the carrots to keep our brains in Australia AND to attract brains from the places like Silicon valley

It was crystal clear by 1996 the way the world was going - Apple had been on the go for about 20 years - computers were roaring ahead

the CRIME of Howard was ----------- that John Howard was one of the very very very very few politicians who KNEW what to do -- he bloody sat with Greenspan and told him what a nation needed to do to go ahead with a solid future

Greeenspan said that of all the people he had ever met - John Howard knew what to do ------

the crime and tragedy ---------

John Howard came back to Australia and did EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE

why?

his political survival ------------------------------- unforgivable.

He wasted EVERYTHING right there - because we were in the absolute box seat

we had the wherewithal - we actually had a leader who knew what to do -

we had EVERYTHING that we needed ---------- and, he just waved it away.

We see Australia now ------------ dying --------- that's because of what John Howard did NOT do.

and, now --------- IMO - there's not a snowballs chance in hell of even remotely thinking of catching up ---------- there's hardly a politician in the land that's even caught up with Howards thinking of 20 years ago - let alone even thinking about political will, and now, let alone thinking about how to fund it - the credit card is - shall we say - rather at the limit

Greenspan was a moron so I guess he could sit down and talk with him.

But you said it, in with the Central bank for citizen plunder and nation destruction!!
