      ​@@NoMusiciansInMusicAnymoreNo. The Commonwealth of Australia government. It isn't accurate to say that the corruption is to blame either because the system of government functions as per design. Look beyond the surface and see the blame game for the distraction that it is. Acknowledge there is a problem. Assess the problem, it's causes and potential remedies. Assess other causational problems while working toward resolving initial problem.
      The what aboutism, lesser evil/greater good arguments make people a part of the problem and hinder every attempt at resolving problems. It's childish, irresponsible and entirely detrimental. When we can't be part of the solution we should damn well get out of the way of people who are at least making a constructive effort.

      @ajnaughtin1 7 месяцев назад

      Do you know what the difference in cost of extraction is? Look at the rate of return on Australian public gas companies. It is trivial. Meanwhile unlimited immigration is diluting the per capita value of all existing resources in the country. It is as if you don't look into this issue one iota. Perhaps iron ore could have a modest increased extraction tax but certainly not gas. Monique Ryan used to be my local member, she strongly supports trans surgeries for kids .... you really think she has a sensible position on anything that isn't 100% virtue signalling, no matter what the cost to this country? This is 100% culture war, zero percent sensible policy.

    Australia is one of the least racist countries in the world. Listen to the hypocrisy at the same time as he’s saying Australia is a racist country he’s saying look at how great multiculturalism is. Australia is one of the greatest multicultural societies in the world. Go check out China or India you won’t see vibrant multiculturalism in those countries. You will see governments, taxi drivers, service station attendants etc who are native to the country. I can’t believe anyone can have the opinion that Australia is a racist country. Australia provides security and opportunity to anyone who comes here to thrive and prosper there’s nothing they can’t do if they work for it just like anyone else. If Australia is so racist why do so many people from other countries prefer to live here rather than their country of origin? How is it that so many successful people here in Australia come from so many different backgrounds? Support the country you live in or live in the country you support. Stop bashing Australia and focus on what makes this country so great. 😎👊👍🇦🇺

      India has at least 4 major religions, 23 official languages, 1.7 billion people and maybe 1 or 2 hundred ethnic groups.
      But hey, when you go to India all you see is a brown person driving a taxi, so it must not be diverse there.

      As the above comment states. Plus the lobby's associated with these industries basically own the government at state and federal level.
      We also have so many amongst us who cannot see through the sky news horseshit when it's sold to us. Look for example at how the mining lobby was able to overturn a prime minister when threatened with a carbon tax. They sold it to the Australian public and the public ate it up.

    A good policy would be to put in an export reservation of say 10% and use the cheap/free gas to supercharge our manufacturing sector and shut some coal power generation and replace with gas. Certain Coal seam gas projects would likely pull stumps given the marginal economics at the tail of the project and we would take a hit on sovereign risk for future petroleum investments but having a reserve of untapped gas maybe an asset.
