Malcolm Fraser
In the SMH & Age this morning, Malcolm Fraser on Australia's relations with the US:
"Do we really serve Australia's interests by such uncritical support and by such an apparent loss of our own sense of purpose and independence?"
Are we Australians kidding ourselves that we are a 'mature' nation?
Why do we have:
- A Prime Minister ready & willing to fight other countries wars?
- A Prime Minister who is ready to pass the buck to the bureacracy & unwilling to explain his role in the lies justifying the Iraqi war to the Australian people?
- A head of state who lives in another country?
- High taxation & a property break called negative gearing that's creating a property bubble?
- etc etc
