Why Queensland needs to change especially Brisbane?

These are the problems I find with Brisbane and Queensland in general.

1. The majority of people in Queensland are fiercely conservative and resistant to change
2. Most people not all are racist, bigots and homophobic
3. Some people are snotty and unhelpful and never obliging
4. For the last 30 years Brisbane and Queensland have never adopted Daylight Saving to fall in line with the other eastern capitals
5. The roads are crap and sub standard
6. Very few people help others
7. Brisbane refuses to make the transition into a city and remains an over sized country town
8. The Gold Coast has become a Bogan Zone where crime is on the increase. Perhaps a ploy to steer tourists away because of underlying racism
9. Infrastructure is backward
10. This Queensland is a country Maron supporter Rugby League is way over the top

How Queensland can change

1. Fall in line with the eastern capital in summer and not be dictated to by the rural areas of Queensland. If they don't want to have daylight saving then let them go it alone. Brisbane cannot continue to be behind the other eastern capitals unless it wants to remain backward
2. Improve infrastructure
3. Push the bogans and the crime out of the Gold Coast so that it does not become more and more of a crime capital in Australia
4. Brisbane needs to become a city and not an over sized country town.
5. More open mindedness and vast improvements in education.

I am Australian and a geographical line does not determine my identity. If people are offended by this post well I am sorry but someone has to say something. The Bjelke-Petersen era in Queensland has ended so people move forward!
