The Oz or American Way?

This week Bob Hawke severely, and rightly in my view, criticised the proposed new Industrial Relations laws and labelled them part of the Americanisation of Australia - be it following the US into the Iraq war / fiasco and other things - presently underway. It's all happening slowly but think about it..... The Australian character and life style is slowly and surely disappearing. Before you know it will be gone! Today's article by Adele Horin in the SMH takes up the same theme. Reflect on it long and hard!
