One Nation want you looking down instead of looking up. They want you blaming migrants while the billionaires and the big corporations who have been price-gouging and profiteering laugh all the way to the bank. I tell you what: you won't find the perpetrators of the cost-of-living crisis in migrant communities. I'll tell you where you will find them; you'll find them in their harbourfront mansions, in corporate boardrooms and in gated luxury estates. You'll find them on private planes flying to Mar-a-Lago, like Senator Pauline Hanson did. And you know what; these people will donate to political parties. They donate to One Nation. They buy influence, they hire lobbyists and they make obscene fortunes, while ordinary Australians wonder how they're ever going to get ahead. And who runs cover for them? Who runs cover by blaming migrants for all the ills of our society? One Nation, because One Nation are here for the billionaires and the big corporations who donate so massively to them.

One Nation knows that every minute Australians spend arguing with each other about migrants and migration is another minute the billionaires and the big corporations get to keep ripping us all off—and that is exactly how One Nation's corporate and billionaire puppet masters like it. If you want to bring the cost of living down, take on the people driving up the cost of living. Break up the supermarket duopoly. Stop corporate price-gouging. Tax billionaires. Tax excess profits of big corporations. Make the gas corporations pay their fair share of tax instead of robbing Australians of our own resources, and then use the revenue to help Australians afford the things they used to be able to afford. Tax the one per cent and fund a better life for everyone. Stop blaming migrants for things they are not at fault for.
