@TheVader626 we are used for our resources.. we have some of the most fertile land in the world and some of the biggest deposits of many different minerals.. Yes they are sold overseas for monetary gain.. but we do not gain at all.. yeah gina reinhart and the rest do, but as machinery gets better and more of our companys sell up or move there factorys overseas we as a country gain nothing.. so we can do nothing but gather and live in a debt that we can never really escape just to live..
I can't see the sense in Red, White and Blue... It's still Union Jack to me... The infant nation of Australia has grown up, yet but the Mother country still occupies our flag. I carry for all to see the Southern Cross and Eureka flag upon my body, yet I can not bring myself to tattoo that symbol of Empire. I also have on my forearm a Map of our Continent which is encircled by the message... Many Cultures, One People... That is the Australia I want to embrace...
Thank the British for everything we have today, I have Lebanese ancestory but I have the union jack tattooed over my heart. Everything we have today is thanks to the British their systems and there language Australia was built on British money
