So let me get this straight,
If I earn over $80,000 I am going to be asked to pay for the $68 billion that Joe Hockey has added to the deficit by his party’s policies.
I have to pay for Hockey’s $9 billion gamble on the Aussie dollar going down.
I am going to have to cough up money to give billions to the worst polluters so they can upgrade their factories, and many more billions in fossil fuel subsides to wealthy mining companies.
I am going to have to pay women on very high salaries almost $3000/week to watch their nanny look after their kid for 6 months whilst they get a rebate for employing her.
I am going to have to pay for a huge fleet of fighter jets to protect me from who? Do you really think we can beat China in a war? If America needs us to help then I am sure they would provide the jets. Hey we could even lend them an airbase to use their own bloody jets to bomb whoever the hell they want to next time. Won’t it all be done by the unmanned drones that I will also be paying for?

Yes agreed. .....but we have come to expect that when the ALP are in they spend and when Libs and Libs and Co get in they rob from the poor and give to the rich. Gets monotonous and boring but predictable.
It's all the blatant, incessant soap opera bs that we have to listen to that chokes me up.......in fact got to go and get a tissue right now......cos when I see someone cry it makes me cry too............ (the fiberals-not you daydreamer)
*sob
For directions, press once.
For rescue, press twice.
To cry wolf, press repeatedly at press conferences.

Now that the independent National Commission of Audit has been released and you are all better informed of just how much debt Labor left the economy in what are your suggestions now to reduce and pay back MASSIVE debt we have?

try making multinationals who profit from Australia pay tax in Australia rather than demonising Australians in order to justify these scams the libs keep trying to pull in conjunction with the same multinationals the libs really work for .

I know they put the word independent there .. but it doesn't actually belong there ![]()
stacking a board with these people isn't a good measure of '' Independence ''

I agree, companies like the one we are on here transfer all their profits to Ireland and pay no tax in Australia
rather than demonising Australians in order to justify these scams the libs keep trying to pull in conjunction with the same multinationals the libs really work for .
and Labor did what to rectify this? The answer is Labor did NOTHING, Labor didnt do a single thing to rectify this so blame and total lack of action can be proportioned to both sides

Start by tightening some of the loose belts wrapped around fat cats and their mates, instead of forcing those who have already overtightened, to strangle themselves.
Revisit these one way supposed free trade agreements, and get some jobs back into this country, so people can resume paying tax, which will increase the tax income base while at the same time reducing the welfare outlay burden.
If the place could thrive and grow like it did 50 years ago, with a smaller population, and prior to selling off assets left right and centre, creating a whole new affordability problem, then all the policies since (if any of them were as good as they were spouted) should make things even better now.
Yes, I have an opinion. No you don't have to agree with it. Yes I do have a right to it.
