Saw this news at the site above. It got a lot of press for this reason. Just wondering what if any impact it has on Australia's daily life? Just wondering if anyone there with boots-on-the-ground has anything pro or con to comment about your new government?

Regarding Article on GATA:
Australia has just elected a new government, switching from the Labor Party to the Liberal and National Party coalition, and Reuters today quotes the new government's likely trade minister, Andrew Robb, as saying the new government's objectives will include reviving the country's mining industry.

Of course GATA has an idea of how to do that: End the Western central bank gold price suppression scheme particularly and the commodity price suppression scheme generally. Indeed, seven weeks ago your secretary/treasurer sent to the governor of the Reserve Bank of Australia, Glenn Stevens, an international express mail letter requesting an invitation to make a presentation to the bank about the gold price suppression scheme and the harm it does to Australia and other commodity-producing countries.

Predictably enough the bank has not replied to the letter even to acknowledge its receipt, perhaps because the bank knows very well how the international currency markets are rigged and would prefer Australians not to know and begin wondering about the bank's complicity and failure to defend their country's interests.

I wonder what Aussie's make of the refugee policy.

I would like to know what the political implications of switching to a Liberal and National Party coalition would mean for Australia?

(In the US we have the tired old unimaginative Republicans who don't really believe in capitalism or liberty despite their rhetoric. Emerging are the Libertarians/Tea Party types who may be successfully co-opting the Republican into reviving liberty, capitalism and restoring the Constitution.)

Anyway, I hope that Australia will have a liberal immigration party concerning US citizens who wish to emigrate when Obama graciously "accepts" a third term as President.
