Today some numbers have been released by the Oz Government showing how much financial assistance other manufacturers in other countries get as a measure of per-capita dollars. Here goes:
Per-Country Per-Capita government assistance to auto-industry: Australia $17.80 Canada $96.39, France $147.38, Germany $90.37, Sweden $334 UK $27 US $264. The call to arms is - on any article where you see Bleating about the assistance provided by the Oz Government to the automotive sector in the comments section, post these figures yourself to show how little money we actually do provide to the automative sector compared to other countries. Perhaps the focus should be on having France, Germany, Canada and the US reduce their subsidies to Australian levels.... (Sweden needs theirs though) Lukeyson
