I feel that our recent elections have left us in this position, now it appears we vote for a leader, not a goverment or a local member, How like the Americans we are becoming. I, for one, do not wish to lose my Aussie identity or the individuality that brought our traditional 'natipnal identity' into being. Maybe both John and Kevin should concentrate on what is good for Australia before jumping on the 'Save the World' train. Our Government's first obligation is to the welfare of all Australians and until we resolve the situation between the original occupants who had their land stolen, even under the law that the 'Discoverers' were bound by, and the Government, until no Aussie citizen is living in poverty, until we clean up our own backyard. We're in no position to fix other people's problems. Disaster and famine aid, no problem to me but armed intervention in other people's problems; High costs, no return to the nation. Not even genuine kudo's.
