Australia has been demented ever since the Covid lockdowns, worse than

Blame that on their vacillating before imposing lockdowns. As a
result, Melbourne had to suffer lockdowns for longer than anybody else
in the world.
Better for us to integrate militarily with the USA to keep China out.
ItrCOs not clear that Trump has the guts to stand up to China. Notice
how he keeps threatening them with tariffs, then backing down without
actually getting anything in return? They are the one country with
enough economic power to cause real pain to the USA, including MAGA
voters, and even Trump, dimly, realizes that.
But even before that, we must close the immigration door.
Without immigration, our population will decline, and we will be left
with nothing but old people, and nobody to pay the taxes that support
the superannuation bills. What will you do then?
A country full of old people is not a happy country.
