lol I'm keeping this crap alive....makes for healthy debate!
I did actually did notice that article and that it still had to get through senate but unfortunately Andrew, me thinks it'll be just a formality and a stalling tactic by the opposition & I'm sure it will get through.
Sad thing is, the peeps that really need this $950 like the unemployed who are on the bones of their bums, the pensioners and the stay at home mothers who are juggling a couple of kids, won't get it......it's only for those in the workforce. I said earlier that you & I will see that $950 come & go very quickly with no real impact in our lives but $42 billion out of the coffers will definitely hurt this country.
I'm sick of hearing how if Johnny was here today we would still have financial issues........well guess what, I agree.....but how he handles fiscal policy today is all I'm concerned about and the poor boy is running scared.........even Clarkson from Top Gear recognized that in a 5 minute speech.
Any country will always have a gloomy future when their leader conducts themselves out of fear and not vision, which has been the case for centuries, empires have fallen for less.......the good book says that "my people persih because they have no vision". Unfortunately Rudd is in a state of reaction instead of being pro active.....like a little boy trying to clean up a mess with a tissue before mum sees it rather than looking ahead at the bigger picture of what other alternatives there are.
