I really don’t think it’s as evil as that.
I really do think that politicians think they’re (usually) doing the best thing they can for the country.
Even Abbott, the backwards deluded sh1t he spouts is sh1t he thinks is real.
Even when they take bribes & spend public money on their own stuff, they think it’s an irrelevant drop in the ocean (and it probably is).
Economic theory, which I believe is still considered to be the best we know, does say that if a country can’t do something as efficiently as another, then old inefficient industries will go to that “other” country & people move into the newer more efficient industries. Might screw-over people who were employed by Holden, but their kids do something more modern.
And any artificial stimulus (such as import tarrifs or tax deductions) which distorts this is temporary, a waste of money because there’ll be a correction eventually.
Not saying I believe this theory is all accurate; just that it gets implemented because people genuinely think it’s in the best interests of the country.
