I hope our government uses this to find more stable trading partners. I wonder if Germany, China or Japan can take up some slack in relation to the aluminium.

I think you are just trying to make an argument without absorbing what I am saying, I am not saying Liberals policies are always great for the economy either. The wealth inequality is going to get worse and the only way to correct this is to tax the top more.

But show me in conservative history where they have attempted to correct this same issue? Their policies are just as bad if not worse in case of Trump with his tarrifs kicking of a trade war and that cost is going to be passed onto the consumer which is excellerating what your concern is. The only reason the inequality is maybe not as bad in countries like my own that have strong worker laws that allow/force better wages/salaries. But make no mistake if we or other countries like ours still do not increase the tax on the wealthy then that gap will increase as well.

This all sounds like you are just spewing debates points without truly understanding any of it, try and do some research please before you try again.

Edit: Added a point to further clarify my view.

Liberals are by far the lesser of the two evils. Once again I would urge you to pay attention to what the right say and do. They talk of freedoms while stripping it away from others. You speak of liberals enriching themselves when as an example in the US Trump has reduced the taxes on the wealthy while the cost of living is increasing thats looks like the wealthy being given quite the enriching opportunity . Here in Australia our right leaning politician Peter Dutton has amassed a fortune through his political career and is quite friendly with mining the magnates. So please do tell me how the right still enrich but also take away the rights of woman to access to abortions, people wanting to transition and pose a general threat to who they perceive as immigrants even if they are legal in most countries is the better of the two.

If you think the right are going to usher in a golden age of democracy then I don’t think you have been paying attention to what has been happening or what they have been saying.

I would agree with you if it was not the fact that the right are very intolerant and hateful people meaning more people would suffer. This is not like politics from 20 years ago where it was a minor policy difference separating the parties, the right are actively working to remove rights from people.

But if another country wanted to then I am all for it. Yours Truly the Australian Arachnophobiac.

This idiocracy phenomenon is not just limited to a specific age bracket unfortunately, although they are the most likely to fall for scams this …… whatever is happening is extending across all age groups.
