It started when the Liberal Party closed down all defence supply factories in Australia and sourced materiels overseas.

And Target and Myers had a policy in the 80s of sourcing from overseas in preference to Australian made. This was to put pressure on Australian manufacturers.

Real Estate driving up prices and rent because they earn income determined by percentage, not per job .

Driving jobs overseas, making Aussies poorer and having less power to determine policy and standard of living is not some accident but a thought out policy by morally corrupt un Australian oligarchs.
