I like all this government in my life, tax, tax, tax, tax... I don't mind moving to an Australia where I get 38c for every dollar I earn and the government gets the rest and wastes it on stuff I don't need, and encouraging people not to work.
I lied
Hey loggy, how about a list of good thing Julia has done... A positive thing for a Friday![]()
Julia may not be great.
What is the alternative though???
Does anyone really feel that Tony Abbott is any better???? He can hardly string a decent sentence together never mind run a country.
You could always move to
Portugal
Ireland
Greece
Spain
UK
USA
Oh hang on .... they are all coming here ....
Compared with the rest of world, we are not too bad.
^^^ I hear ya CMC...
In fact, I hear quite a few Labs people say she is not great, but... Abbott![]()
Simple solution, big shake-up, they all go, no more Julia, no more Swan*and no more Abbott.
*The guy is a half-wit. He is so dumb he doesn't even realise the bollocks he speaks![]()
What do you want?
Work - low rate of unemployment - got that.
Growth - got that?
Stable society - yep
Stable banks - yep.
Free speech - tick that one off too.
Democracy - fairy representative on that one too.
Whats the beef?
Funnily enough radmac, just this arvo I read an article from Ross Gittins (y'know? The economics editor for the SMH) which echoed just that sentiment:
www.smh.com.au/business/this-very-lucky-country-enjoys-a-good-whinge-20110703-1gx7i.html
He also wrote a spiel about how the OECD surveyed people in a whole bunch of countries to see how happy they were. Not surprisingly, people in wealthy countries are happier than people in poor countries.
BUT there's a limit.
Australians top of the list and are generally happier than people pretty much anywhere else. The Nordic countries are all near the top as well, despite their generally socialist government (which just goes to show how wrong many of the noisiest people here are).

Next time someone here bleats on about "nanny state", just say "Sweden".
What we need is a government that is willing to point the finger at some other country or group of people and say its all their fault you should hate them, not us. That's the way it used to be done when the "dessicated coconut" was in charge.![]()
I like Tony Abbott. Sure he's rough around the edges, but I think he'd do a good job if given half a chance.
Aussies are famous for given people a fair go...
Gillard and Rudd have put the country into Massive debt trying to avoid a reccesion and the unemployment etc that come with one.
The thing is, it's like trying to stop the tide, eventually you will drown. At the moment they are on life support (borrowed time if you like) the average thinking Aussie is sick of being treated like a fool and there is no chance of them getting back into power after the next election.
I don't think Abbott is there for the long haul, I think he may be the sacrificial lamb so to speak. Rarely does a leader of the opposition (which ever side) get put up for election as the prime minister without a late change of leadership, just think back.
As for the reccesion, I think the job losses will start soon, they already have around here in the building industry and shop keepers are right on the edge. It's nothing to fear really, it won't kill you but life will get tough for many. Then things will pick up and evryone will happy till next time..
