    Government regulations have made it too costly and hard to manufacture anything here.

      I would have instead thought it’s mostly the higher wages, no?

      Regulations are written in blood, so I’m personally very sceptical about weakening them.

      Practically the only forces I hear asking for weaker regulations are the companies who want to cut corners, and many people have died from that.

      The community cost ends up being much higher.

          ??? Are you seriously suggesting bringing back wage slavery?

          The solution to having more manufacturing in Australia is not eliminating the minimum wage.

          Wtf are you on? Here I was thinking: Hmmm I disagree with this person on many things, but they’re just concerned about the cost of living and people’s ability to afford a home.
