The Americans and the Canadians achieved a price cut once before and there's
no reason why we can't achieve a similar result if we band together and
fight against the people who profiteer from us.
Come on Australia!!
Let's stand together!!
WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!!!!
Even if you receive this 100 times keep passing it around, this way you know
everyone is being informed and no one will forget!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
