Supermarkets are destroying the economy

There is a push from the two main supermarkets in Australia at the moment to remove named brands for substitution of their homebrands. If you don’t believe me check your local Coles or Safeway and look for some of the brands you used to know and try and find them. This may make your shopping bill slightly cheaper but at what cost? If this trend continues it will result in the loss of all that made Australia great, our quality of life will reduce drastically. Manufacturing jobs and food processing/growing/harvesting jobs will gradually decline. What can we do about it??? As consummers we simply have to ask for and demand Australian owned and produced products, if enough people regularly say to the supermarkets they won’t buy the imported crap but only want Australian brands, they will do it.
