1. SELLING OUR INHERITANCE – BLESSING DESTROYED
At the government and private levels, Australia is so wrong to be in the game of selling off assets and companies into overseas control.
It has happened so often over the years that it seems we have little that is not in foreign ownership. We used to be a country identified as ‘Australia’ regarding asset ownership and management. No longer.
Increasingly, we have sold off segments of our birthright for cash advantage. Sadly, that cash is soon wasted, generally squandered on some ‘quick fix’ and wholly unsustainable project. That is at state/territory and federal level.
(This year, it has been trying to buy votes ahead of the federal election on May 3.) We keep selling, and we keep wasting.
Increasingly, we Australians are tenants in a country owned and controlled by overseas principals. We have allowed ourselves to become bankrupt yet continue to sell off whatever bits of the farm remain.
