Agreed. As many political commentators have said before, most politicians want to see the industry die, they just dont want it to happen during their government. If the Australian government wanted to prop them up more, then all they need to do is buy everything produced on thurdays and fridays.

Its a shame that the Victorian government has pressured the Feds so much to bail out the industry, and yet Vic government departments, spend alot less of Victorian made cars than they do on South Australian made cars.

Unfortunately, it looks like the rot has set in, as was done to Mitsubishi. You get the falling sales, you get the bad press, and everything snowballs from there
