Oddbean new post about login | logout The Australian Economy never ceases to amaze me. From middling Manufacturer to sandwiched between Uganda and Pakistan in terms of economic complexity in just 20 years. What do you see on the horizon #AUStriches? Are we going to start adding value to our Iron Ore? Become a nuclear power and develop worldclass machinery to enrich our Uranium? Maybe develop a chemicals industry to rival Germany with all our natural gas? https://cdn.nostr.build/i/306ba3fa2ddf86ab586cb10caa1d826490cc9d3a0f407d3263b02b98fda060b0.jpg https://cdn.nostr.build/i/a8302d5f2bef02c8bd2795c12c5fd73b716c9388c52456bf34e7c49f90b0564c.jpg nostr:note1n6gazklzjy9nuuqwdjhw2y9wuy538r3xpqmwjql7z8xwsv7c5nqqsnyf2m
Fuck.. So we EXPORT Crude..But still have high prices at the pump!!
Fuel excise. Prices are high because Government want to sting you every time you open your wallet so you can never build wealth and become independent of their system. Go look at the Teals bitching about LNG - Japan are buying our shit and re-exporting it because they have a fleet of tankers. We now have ZERO, I repeat, ZERO Australian flagged merchant ships. If a real Covid hit tomorrow the country would grind to a halt in a week and be MadMax within a fortnight.
