‘Free Trade’ and the TPP -- a Disaster for all Sovereign Nations

In 2010 the WTO threatened sanctions on Australia if it didn’t allow the risky import of ‘fireblight’ prone New Zealand apples into our fireblight-free nation; Oz apple growers were absolutely correct in their stance to protect a valuable national industry, why risk it when Oz producers are easily able to satisfy local and export markets with our high quality product?

But the WTO would have none of it as it zealously supports free trade and globalisation and the spineless Oz government at the time allowed the WTO to overrule our sovereign interests and threaten a fireblight-free viable industry for no good reason.

Today we have another traitorous corporate puppet PM, Tony Abbott, who is complying with foreign rather than local interests and who could care less about the people he contemptuously lied to to gain office. The result of Abbott’s spineless and clearly servile stance is now a MAJOR potential health risk for the ENTIRE NATION -- 'good work,' dumbo!

When Abbott stated soon after stealing office that “Australia is open for business” that was a message primarily directed at transnational and other corporations, translated it meant that Oz is now a corporate free-for-all.

Since Abbott stole office foreigners have destroyed our local real estate market by pushing prices through the roof and thereby excluding local citizens on local wages from the market, notwithstanding very few nations allow foreigners to purchase vast swathes of arable land, food producing industries and urban real estate FREEHOLD!

It becomes immediately apparent that a nation which surrenders its currency to Wall Street speculators (thanks Keating) is vulnerable to economic take-over by foreign interests that are easily able to out-compete locals -- but that is why we install REPRESENTATIVE governments, which are commissioned by the people to protect and safeguard national interests. However, as is extremely plain to see with the current GROSSLY INCOMPETENT, corporate-serving Abbott government, national interests have been forfeited/displaced by globalist corporate interests and the situation can only get worse, as is evident by Abbott favouring off-shore companies (submarine purchases) and industries -- I need not pursue the point as it is self-evident but would rather focus on solutions, something the corporate mass media is loath to do!

Of course there is ALWAYS a SIMPLE SOLUTION to incompetent, traitorous, non-representative governments, dishonesty, inequality and Wall Street rogues, and that is to GLOBALISE WAGES; uniform global wages for similar occupations immediately curtails the RAMPANT EXPLOITATION and other associated risks of the current one-sided exploitative model which only serves RAPACIOUS CORPORATE INTERESTS, at great cost to local populations AND LOCAL INDUSTRIES.

The PEOPLE of sovereign democratic nations must never allow uneven trade practices to negatively impact their quality of life or threaten essential national industries and finite resource wealth. Any government that surrenders sovereignty to destructive foreign interests clearly does not serve national interests or the people, a situation that is easily remedied via recourse to the LAW for treasonous offences.

A general rule in all democratic nations is never vote for any major owned (corporate corrupted) party, vote instead for REPRESENTATIVE INDEPENDENTS at all times and in all elections and immediately pursue the implementation of WAGES GLOBALISATION to EFFECTIVELY end corporate exploitation and even the current disastrously one-sided playing field.
