Its called a labor government. Ooooooooooh, I went there.
Just for the record, I'm no neoliberal, but at the same time, people who work hard and earn more deserve to be rewarded for doing so. I work two jobs and get taxed a ridiculous amount on my second job, so much so that it almost isn't worth doing it.
When I was 15 I worked every saturday and sunday at a fast food establishment and made $80 for it. Some of my friends use to be on "youth allowance" and made the same amount as me, yet never had a job until they were 19 and 20, and it use to drive me up the wall knowing that I was working hard to pay for them to enjoy themselves. The funny thing is that those friends of mine were always the ones that had the best phones/clothes/ tv's/ foxtel etc. I'm not saying that youth allowance is a bad thing, but its needs to be regulated and given only to those in certain circumstances and those who are particularly needy.
Still annoys me to this day. Sorry for the rant and going off topic. Just some food for thought.
