What is it that you don't think that Australia and USA have been sold down the drain.
Or is that you don't understand that Holden knew that it had to export to survive and built the VE so big, it was going to build a smaller commodore but went bigger adding around 200KG over the VT to VZ type, we did not need a bigger commodore at all and I was talking to the people who were involved with designing the VE at the first display and they said it was going to export to the USA hoping to double sales, if you can remember the Monaro did well and was in it's creation made for the USA market or it would never of got off the ground as the dollars to design and make it would never of past the bean counters approval, I think it's half of the Monaro's that were made went to the USA.
People who mention or use the term meds are usually the ones who are on such rubbish I would think, not to mention that most who make clams of Australian USA are doing well are simple minded wage earners and dole bludgers from what I have come across but the ones who work for themselves or own a business are irate about the ignorance of most fools who claim otherwise.
I meet and talk with about 60 people a week bro, so I have a informed position on what is going on.
Chill Zeke. I was just joking about your big rant. I'm probably stating the obvious, but you have an interesting way with words. Particularly when speaking passionately. That's great, but a sense of humour makes makes everyday better AFA I'm concerned.
I actually agree with some (but not all) of what you are saying.
I'm not on the dole, nor do I generalise about or prejudge those whom are. Because I despise predudice. I am on a salary though, as our business is a company structure. Well, two trusts and two companies actually. As a small SME owner and finance professional, I fully understand the impost of govt policy and regulation on Aussie business. I have met, and know some very intelligent and well informed recipients of social security, and wage earners are the heart and sole of our great nation. So hats off I say.
The long design period, various planned derivatives and export potential / plans of the Zeta platform are well documented and known. So nothing enlightening there mate. It's sad that uncle Sammy GM put the kibosh on that. But the world still turns right?
I've moved on though. I prefer to learn from the past, live for today and focus on the future. A future with two awesome Zeta's, four in the Family and another three in the business. So, I can say I am chuffed at how big they are. A slimmed down Commy would not suit our needs. It's definately a case of more is more.
Let's not mention my meds, I'm anti-stigmatic and anti-ostracism.
