Australian Open Challenge and Senate Run

Day 1,887, 14:28 • Published in Australia

This article has 3 purposes. They are as follows:
1. To update you about recent news.
2. To introduce my concept, Australian Open.
3. To announce my run for the Senate (Congress).

Recent News and Analysis

We have had less of this:

And more of this:

What does this mean?
We need more of the latter. That, and TJ Norton is back in Australia.

We won a Resistance War in Tasmania. This may have some repercussion, but I think Chile will be smart enough to keep fighting the real fight - against Argentina.

I managed to catch up with Prime Minister Xavier Griffith, and he sai😛
"Chile is demanding we give them Tasmania back and NE them to do it, [but] I'm trying to get them to actually release all our regions because, in effect Argentina is trying to RW them and trap Chile's capital in Victoria away from any of its resources."
He assures that we will get New South Wales back on the 20th, or else "they will be in breach of the treaty."
He finishes by saying:
"Argentina, while claiming to be our friends by RWing our regions from Chile is nothing of the kind, they simply using us in an endeavour to lock Chile's capital in Victoria and block it off from all of its finances and resources. This is being done in an endeavour to turn Chile against Australia and have the Treaty broken between us and also to draw away Australian and Chilean forces from our battles to wipe Argentina from the map as they have done to so many others in the past. This will not work, it is only enhancing the friendship between Australia and Chile and giving us a reason to work together from a stronger position of friendship."

Australian Open

As "The Grand Slam of the Pacific" continues, I would like to challenge each and every one of us here Down Under to take a pact. We will agree to:

Buy Australian
Work Australian
Live Australian
Fight Australian

I know this may sound cheesy, but I can explain the meaning and purpose. Our economy is on its way out. (Or it has been out for some time, rather.) The way to jump-start our economy, and it will take time, is to follow the Australian Open Challenge.

Buy Australian - When you buy supplies, buy from an Australian citizen.
Work Australian - Work for an Australian citizen, taking a lower pay.
Live Australian - Live and act in the Spirit of the great Land.
Fight Australian - Battle for the decisions made by the Prime Minister.

My reasoning is simple Supply-Side Economics.
If the employer is not bought from, he cannot hire.
If the consumer is not employed, he cannot buy goods.

Senate Run

I am going to run for the Senate of Australia.

I have never been in a Congress before, and I am just announcing my desire to run for Senate under the banner of the ARP. I have a lot of various experiences, so please contact me for questioning, if you so desire.

I stand for the Australian Open Challenge, and revitalizing our economy.
I stand for membership in the Circle of Trust, and encouraging old friends to join us.
I stand for a strong military, and a well organized Australian Defence Force.
I stand for community activities, frequent news articles, and regular updates.
I stand for a balanced budget, and reducing Military Unit loopholes.
