From Andrew Bolt:
Vote Greens in this election and you wont get cuddlier koalas, bigger hugs and cleaner rivers. In fact, youll be voting to transition from coal exports, which means ending a trade worth $55 billion a year .
Youll be voting to end … the mining and export of uranium, worth another $1 billion a year.
Youll be demanding farmers remove as far as possible all genetically modified crops, which includes GM cotton worth about $1.3 billion a year.
Youll be voting to close down many other businesses and industries, including the export of woodchips from old-growth forests, certain kinds of fishing, oil and mineral exploration in parks or wildernesses, and new coal mines of any kind.
Youll even be voting to close the Lucas Heights nuclear facility, even though it actually produces treatments for cancer.
In fact, youll be voting for policies deliberately intended to make us poorer. Less industrialised. Or as the Greens policy puts it, for a reduction of Australias use of natural resources to a level that is sustainable and socially just. Whatever that formula means.
