How can you do business without being able to understand things like money, salaries, projections, sales, taxation, etc all of which require a high degree of numerical competency and if you have anything to do with making anything all the engineering that is done to keep the factory going requires some wide mathematical knowledge. If all you want to do is be a parasite and not contribute anything to the country then give up Maths and become a management slob

There will always be opportunities out there.  The economy has nothing to do with it - it's the person who sees a problem and finds a way to fix it. And hopefully entertain people while he or she is at it.\n\nWhat I've seen most is people who are in a particular field so they know the problems inherent in that field.  Then they develop a solution and sell it.

Continually look for the best company to provide your goods or service.  We are in this state because people just accept it.  If everybody shopped around for the best deal then businesses who remained complacent would go out of business.  By having to compete in the market place their prices would fall.  \n\nAs for the government and their stealth taxes, we all have to vote to get rid of Labour and keep the Tories out.  I doubt the Lib Dems will be any better but at least the big two will get the message that we are sick of being ripped off by their policies which are pro big business.

Probably the easiest way is to go to www.yahoo.com.au and type in the name of the business along with the city.  This is especially important if the business is in a smaller town rather than in Melbourne, Sydney or Brisbane.  Good luck!

There are several things that are more important.  For instance to me the amount of jobs that are NOT out there is very important.  I think what really urks me though is the fact that my husband just lost his job and we tried to get our 2 children on state ins. just until he could get another job with ins.  they denied us and said we made to much money.  Even when we are paying for our ins we are paying a fortune then we turn around and still pay a fortune out.

I would recommend the excellent book The World's Banker : A Story of Failed States, Financial Crises, and the Wealth and Poverty of Nations.  Or Guns, Germs and Steel, by Jared Diamond.  Or perhaps "The open veins of Latin America", by Eduard Galeano.\n\nThe arguments are very complex and the analysis of history and culture very interesting, but I will boil it down and make it very simple.\n\nSuccessfull cultures in today's world are almost entirely based on the values of a particular culture (yes there are other factors, but bear with me).  Countries that approach economics from an exploitationist perspective (see Spain in the 16th century in the new world) or many countries today where a few people control the mineral and resource wealth of a country fail repeatedly until eventually the values of the people change.  \n\nCountries that have promoted mercantilism, trade and commerce generally prosper, because in order to create a climate in which commerce can flourish, soceity has to value the traits that are conducive to commerce (transparency, rule of law, meritocracy, etc).  A smart businessman hires the best people he can to do the job, not necessarily his family members (as is the norm in some countries).  \n\nSo, how is it that countries that have relatively few natural resources are rich and powerful (Great Britain, Japan for instance)?  They are mercantilists to one extent or another.  Look at the Netherlands. Almost no natural resources, and only 14 million people.  However, they own many major businesses that operate in the US and have influence out of proportion to their size.  Why?  they figured it out early and got with the program.
