New Zealand and Australia - Benefits of Co-existence

I recently filled up a car in Brisbane and it only cost $50!! In NZ it would easily cost $85.

I've been thinking about how New Zealand could benefit by getting along well with our big brother.

Australia has 26 million people and New Zealand has 5 million people.

New Zealand’s exports are: wine, dairy, lamb, etc. and tourism supports our country.

Tourism supports New Zealand's economy

NZ could give Australia its exports at a cheap price.

In return, Australia could give NZ exports at a reduced price.

Australia could drink quality NZ wine at a discounted price compared to other countries in the world

It makes sense to co-exist.

Both countries would then win.

If one country was lacking, the other country could help out

It would be cool if the world was one big country.
