“Why should we pass this legislation? Because it is squarely in Australia’s national interests to take action on climate change, it is squarely in Australia’s national interest to pass the carbon pollution reduction scheme.”

Exterminate, exterminate. And in any case, you’re wrong. Please explain how crippling our economy, before we know whether other countries (our competitors) will cripple theirs, is in our national interests.
