I thought....

That Kevin Rudd was the saviour of the GFC and that he and Swan were so good that they set Australia up for the future. 

How come we are struggling so much right now if they did such a sterling job? 

Did they get it wrong? 

Did they go too far with that second stimulus package that was the only stimulus package that the coalition questioned? 

Did they really think far enough ahead to help steer Australia in the right direction and if so then why are so many businesses going to the wall?

Bull **bleep**,John Howard got Australia into so much debt that's why he was booted out and then the Labor Party saved us again.I'm sick of all the coalition and their lies.

It seems some voters really believe that a nations economy is the same as a families budget, seriously. The rot about budget surplus being necessary has been swallowed hook, line and sinker - every time I have asked someone why they believe the LNP's "the cupboards are bare" or the "budget crisis" (that never was), they always have similar answers and compare a nations economy and budget to their own household, go figure.

thats because the material they read paints that overly simplistic picture. one of the resident 'thinkers' bases almost all of his argument on hpusehold debt and breaking and entering, led by the nose..

Labor never raided my bank account.In fact they put money in peoples bank accounts not long after they were elected.
