Do you remember?

When you voted, and your party didn't/did get in?

Do you remember the Budgets? Did you agree/not agree?

 

I think some may need to step back a little. If the majority voted in the party you didn't vote for, it's what the majority of the population wanted at the time. Most have gone through this, and you know what? we survived.

I am not a political animal and will not debate.

 

Sometimes I read the political threads to see if someone can convert me

to another point of view.     That is all.   I rarely comment.

 

I have never stated that I am Labor. Why would you assume?

 

These are rhetorical questions, by the way

Pretty much what I said, and removed, maybe it's worse now because of social media, forums, etc. But it seems to be way over the top to me. 

It's okay, I'll just move on. 🙂

I read what you posted.

At least the non LNP supporters don't long C&P from the Daily Telegraph frequently. Tony Abbott had a good chat with The DT editors in a restaurant on Budget night. Coincidence they didn't slam the Budget the next day???

Plus the Budget didn't have anything in it to increase revenue ( by increasing taxes). Cutting costs, doesn't increase revenue.

I got no time for woe is me people. Everyone else is discussing the Budget.

I also wonder what's in his head. Whatever it is, I suspect it's some Machiavellian party mechanism to get away with as much personal loot as possible in the short term.

 

because . . . The Australian voters couldn't possibly be expected to forget the betrayal of trust, let alone the financial pain for a large proportion of them that this govt has brought about.

If you did a quick tally I think you will find that the vast majority of new political threads are by people who DO support the budget and DID vote for this government. Most of the anti government comments are responding to those threads.

 

As to why those people find the need to fill the boards with the threads when they are sitting pretty and have nothing to complain about stupefies me.

 

Perhaps a thread aimed at trying to understand those people is logic nstead would be more apt.

I just did a quick count on front page:

 

13 threads started by Liberal supporters 

6 threads started by Labor supporters 

 

So what point where you trying to make in the OP?
