Pilot shortage

[Guptar]

I think some of you are arguing about the colour of the suede on the chairs in the first class lounge of the Titanic. Within a lifetime there will be no Australian Airline system. We will have Chinese pilots on $4,000 per month.
We have a generation of under achievers in school, a vast number of which will never be employable. The brightest are now and will continue to head overseas where their skills and knowledge are valued.

Our government, on both sides of the political fence seems hell bent on treason to the people it governs, the very same people that worked to make something of this country.

Only last week I was trying to get dental work for my elderly mother in law, we could pay now the sum of $8,000 or wait a minimum 7 years. Yet the refugee lady in the waiting room who had been in the country a few months was getting it done for free……right now, no waiting. You can be prosecuted for saying that Muslims are bad, but the government cowers when they hold up placards “ kill the unbelievers”. No one has the guts to repeal 18C of the discrimination act, nor the guts to use it when “a certain religion” willfully violates it.

Even corporations are in on the it, sacking people in vast numbers so they could move the office off shore.

You only have to look at the governments own projections out to 50 years of government revenue v income. Social security costs are rising exponentially while revenue from taxes is falling.

Manufacturing in this country is becoming a thing of the past. In 2018 Australia will be the only large 1st world country that does not build cars. The DE-industrialisation of Australia will be almost complete.
Eventually we will run out of minerals, or other countries like Brazil will undercut us. They are already doing that. Digging holes in the ground is one of our few remaining sources of national income. We seem to have dropped the ball in the food game.

Soon after the government will be unable to pay it’s bills. We won’t be able to import anything when the Dollar slides to 35c US. The pain that Greece has been feeling will visit us. We are heading for Bankruptcy, yet post after post on Facebook proclaims that “ we are the best country in the world”. Clear to Land’s post nailed it on the head. Australians are very naive about their past, themselves and the future.
