Peace through corruption — except there's no peace, so just corruption is left. And more war.

We're going to see more truckers and farmers loudly complain, in Australia and around the world.

But they're often the group that supports conservative (and sometimes extremist right wing) politicians who pushed us into this situation into the first place.

Now they're demanding everyone else to pay for that failed business model.

An Australian trucker interviewed here says: "Everything that you get has come off a truck at one point"

That is the problem, not the current high price of fuel. When a country fails to invest in rail infrastructure, we see how fragile that economy is.
