@Rechabitearalue P1/You know it’s not what we think. Australia is. It actually too expensive. Let me explain why:
- I will explain why it’s importers profiting from exchange rates. Not much else relevant.
@Rechabitearalue P2/ AUD 1$ = $5 Chinese Yuan. Here’s the thing. As a Coles/woolies I can but Chinese farm product for $1 and Chinese worker still gets equivalent of $5 (because $1 turns into $5 after exchange rates)... read on.
@Rechabitearalue P3/ so Coles wollies can buy food from China cheap. NOT because wages are cheap. But because exchange rates are amazing. Coles Woolies can buy same product for $1, sell it in Aus for $4, make $3 profit, and still be $1 cheaper than Oz farmers. ... next
@Rechabitearalue P4/ So Coles Woolies resist “country of labeling” because it would damage their exchange rate based profits... next...
@Rechabitearalue P5/ so jobs in australia race to zero because exchange rates kill off manufacturing and factories on the same basis. Distributors (buyers) profit from exchange rates. Not because of the lie that wages are cheaper oversees - why do I say that? Read on...
@Rechabitearalue P6/ in China for example the worker goes out & pays $5 for a coffee. In australia the worker pays $5 for a coffee. In their OWN currency. NEITHER are cheap. Importers make mega $$ from exchange rates, not worker wages ... 😂 good lawd shearer’s should retake control of unions!!!
