    Good work completely ignoring my graph showing the numbers for public workers... I guess you meant opinions when you said facts?

    The G20 told all countries to go home and start handing out $ to save the world from a 1930 style crash...Australian people were lucky that they got the handouts unlike the US where the $ went to prop up the banks.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see it happen again.. Europe, UK, Japan and the USA are still in trouble.

    If the G20 tells either the Australian Red or Blue government to just do it. They will.

    Talking about workchoices today is about as relevant as being worried about the Y2K bug.

    Stupid = Vote for a big government party who will only tax everybody more and more with time but you do this because you can claw back a bit more from them than the Libs, so basically - for example - you're willing to pay $10 000 more per year in tax because you can claim back an extra $1000 in benefits....

    Unethical = You're quite happy voting for a party who believes in stealing ever increasing amounts from productive people but at the same time you're not prepared to pay your "fair share" and am quite happy to avoid your tax obligations.
    Note: The definition of "fair share" ito taxation is the amount designated by the government to be payable

    yep ... stupid and unethical ... about sums up the requirements to be an ALP bludger!! :lol:

    You would have to have Stockholm Syndrome to vote Labor in this election.

    you forgot to add:
    1. he will deliver a streamlined NBN which would be more than adequate but at a fraction of the cost - thereby saving tens of billions of dollars.
    2. he will actually stop the boats once temporary protection visas are re-introduced, as this means that economic migrants can no longer look forward to a lifetime on the dole for them and their extended families. this in itself will save many tens of billions of dollars ...

    SAVVVI dumbo??

    yeh but even more important is that we're not sliding into ever increasing deficit like we were under the Beetie/Bligh ALP state government!
    The LNP government under Newman is relatively fiscally responsible which is stark difference to the criminal scum who were in office before him.

    the same will apply federally .... Labor have totally trashed the economy racking up hundreds of billions of dollars in debt, and as per usual it will cost a Lib government to fix up the mess!!
    this may require temporarily raising/keeping certain taxes, but they'll balance the budget in the end because the big difference is that the Libs are not addicted to spending like Labor is and they actually know how to manage the economy, as proven time after time.

    @ Court Jester:
    But i guess you're just too plain stupid to see any of this. you see what you want to see! I know its nice and warm up there, but you should really pull your head out... :lol:

    The current top beaurocrats at treasury are nothing more than ALP muppets... hope the new government fires their asses!
    Their estimates are as moronic as their current political masters.

    Interesting. Still think either of these clowns will turn off the tap and ignore the instructions:

    This is from the Barefoot Investor.

    Saying it's net-net for big business is just stupid. They have to pay more tax than small business so they have to pay. But then the author reverses his own comment to say (quite rightly) that the tax increase means less dividends to owners a large number of which are all of us through our personal and mandated savings funds. They should have just ignored the first half of the article and stuck with the last half. Welfare benefits for some means payments by others.
