Don’t get me wrong I lived in WA in a past life and I know how you feel, but your wrong, your basically a mine with nothing else and you need to live elsewhere to realise it. I know it makes you feel good to believe your better, but unfortunately your not, the vast swathe of services come from the Commonwealth, not your state. I’m not saying any Eastern state is better either, I’m one of these rare types that is actually Australian, the whole point that we have become wealthy is unity, not stupid Trumpism division.
But if you really want to break it off go ahead, it would actually be comical watching that debacle!
15% of GDP from 10% of the population.
Hardly enough that. Poor effort indeed.
