Australia's luck 'beginning to run out': Costello
Sep 17^th, 2014 at 1:14pm

"For the first time since the 1990s, per capita incomes have stabilised in Australia - they are no longer growing.

"Young people under 50 who have lived through a period of uninterrupted rising incomes are beginning to experience something that's different."

Consumers were "anxious" and had "stopped spending".

A direct result of being part of a globalised system which he and his lot pushed us into during the 90s.

What else would anyone expect when you put yourself into competition with billions of third worlders willing to work for far less than what you're getting paid?

The agenda started for Australia when the LIMA agreement was signed, 1975.

You need to separate. There are those few wise people who warn you about what's going to happen in this country because they want you to be safe and sound and live in freedom. And then there are those banker's puppets who prepare you for what their masters are planning to happen because they want you to become a slave in the system they chose to support.

Provided they are aware of the bankers intentions and not just simply, mere, innocent, money making bankers. Otherwise, it's back to the "you're just a conspiraloon" mentality.
It's quite funny because if you want to make someone aware of the New World Order agenda, you point them in the direction of the bankers because when you trace the bankers you can see something fishy is going on, and it is much more realistic and plausible then, say, the anti-Christ is running the world a group of reptilian extra-terrestrials are doing it. But it is still met with the same high-and-mighty know it all attitude bred of ignorance, because basically anything that swings close to "conspiracy theory" these days is automatically deemed bullshite, despite the fact that it has been proven that many are actually true.

Countries that do well have diverse economies instead of the banana republic attitude of our pollies and business leaders.

An ex-3rd-world-er, who now owns 3 late model cars, buying a home and was moving out of rental property, offered me $5 to mow the lawn, well over grown shrubs using my own lawnmower.

I refused and got him a quote from a mowing franchise, real-world price would have been $120.00

He was offended, then his missus rang me and demanded I cut the lawn, I said "no", started to explain and they go into, "don't understand English" mode and hung up.

What I'm noticing is, the ex-3rd-world-ers are now looking after their own kind.
BP on-the-run is a classic example, don't see many Aussies serving.
It's time we woke up to this rort, are they sending money back to their 3rd world relatives,and where else may the money end up ?
Buy from True Blue Aussie owned, and that includes Kon the fruit man's kids, voula,foula,toula,loula and agape's shops, and papa giseppy's pizza.

What once used to be the sweet smell of charcoal grill and basil n garlic pizza bar along the boulevards, is now the smell of rotting curry and soy.

LOL

Ah yes, differing opinions tend to happen in the party for freedom of enterprise and reward for effort, how damned refreshing to witness the freedom to debate differing opinions without political correctness and fear of expulsion by the faceless midnite assassins....not like you commie pinko eco-socialist trade union thug lefty worshipers of tyranny and slavery... Cheesy

I know someone who had a similar problem when they started a mowing business. The chinaman wouldn't pay them after mowing his lawn even after several attempts at collecting the money Sad

It's funny how they always have oodles of money for property deals and Mercedes cars Sad

As for their so called foreign investment creating jobs for the locals forget about it. Sure some tradies will get some work out of them but it will only be temporary otherwise they wouldn't create anything for anyone.
