praying for rain

Paul Dwerryhouse posted a comment about the Prime Minister asking people to pray for rain. I don't think that Johnny is suggesting this because he's overly religious (compare his actions with the New Testament of the Bible). The fact is that the Australian government has no plans to deal with global warming, the inefficient distribution of water, and the large commercial farms that produce water inefficient crops such as rice and cotton in areas that have limited amounts of water. This means that small farmers should pray, no-one else will help them!

I wonder if the farmers will ever work out that the National party is doing absolutely nothing for them by it's alliance with the Liberal party. Maybe if farmers could actually get a political party that represents their interests then things would change.
