Working on monuments that may never be built.

We all want a Rolls Royce NBN & also a rolled Gold education system, put in a new billions of dollars health care scheme & the ever shrinking pie is swallowed whole.

Nobody can argue against any of it & if you dare you're castigated & set upon, (see the Myer CEO). Gillard wedged & Abbott conceded.

What we want to know is, will the paltry $3 billion the levy raises go any further than the NDIS trials running at the moment?

Will the incoming gov be left with massive promises, made just weeks before an election, in very shaky economic times & a budget deficit that is touted to be in region of $23 billion & counting.

What we want is a full & transparent costing for these promises before the 14the Sept.

It's not for me to rain on the euphoria of people with disabilities, far from it, can Gillard & Abbott promise the same?

nothing campbell bjelke peterson would do would surprise me.  he gave $40000 to KFC dor recycle bins, huge amounts for horse and greyhound racing but god help the health, welfare and education systems.  if lasts more then one term it will be a miracle and a disaster.  langbroek is just as bad he is so out of touch with reality.
