Australia – “The Lucky Country”
Australia has long been considered “The Lucky Country”.
Australia shines as place to be in global crisis
This attitude has insulated us from some of the effects of the current economic downturn.
Why is this?
Because a significant amount of the severity of the financial climate today is due to fear and negativity.
Much is self inflicted.
Focus on the good. There is much.
In any case, things will get better.
We have had booms and busts before. It is cyclical. Yawn.
Perhaps we can also use this time to have a good look at ourselves and readjust – improve. Oh, the excesses of recent times! The strange and bizarre activity.
One reason we have such a mess is because we are so badly led. Yes, we have poor leaders and many of us voted for them.
And we are so badly led partly because we have a system (which is not really democracy at all) where mass self interest and blinkered thinking influences policy.
It’s barmy really.
Since when have the hordes of lemmings rushing towards the cliff been right?
I am reminded of the last days of Rome.
