Personally, I think the globalisation movement has gone a bit too far and we need to be protecting our own national interests a bit more - particularly when it comes to key infrastructure and land.

I'm all for foreign investment in Australia - but I do believe that our mines, ports, farming land etc, should not allowed to be foreign controlled.

I'm not anti-globalisation, and I'm not pro-nationalisation - I think there is a middle ground that we need to aim for, to be part of the global community while also ensuring our own national interests are protected.

With respect @Ariyahn2011 I have altered your post slightly to reflect my understanding of the situation.

"I reckon you have plenty of time. The market is going to stick around for a long time."

We need to find the balance and be self sustaining as a country. If foreign countries own our farming lands - who's to say they slowly will control the country? We've already seen news of CN companies shipping medical supplies back to CN.
