    As the saying goes ,You can please some of the people some of the time not all of the people all of the time
    Do you realy think another political party would of done anything different ,maybe look after their rich friends then all the poorer class citizens would be whinging
    So wishing for the next election will do what if your vote does not get the result you wish for
    Politicians are all in it for them selves and their mates , We just pay their wages
    Now can we start a post on religion

    Does not matter which party we have in command of Australia, both are run by rich people for the rich population.
    If they start showing some guts and care for this beautifull country they should bring back the manufacture base, nationalize the petroleum, coal and ore.
    Bring back Port Kembla, Newcastle and Whyalla to full production on the hands of the people not the multinationals.
    Today the president of Brazil released part of their solution which it is not bad for a "3rd country"
    1/2 millon new houses for 2009 and another 1/2 millon for 2010.
    The petroleum is belong to Brazil so 179 billon dollars from the petroleum will be directed to infraestructure and help the poor.

    Just wonder how many beautifull things we can do in Oz if the petroleum and minerals were belong to the people

    Just seen the news too.

    A question - How is giving $950 going to help the "Australian" Economy?

    Why can't the gov't inititiate a massive infrastructure project, such as a solar plant in mildura or a Melb/Canberra/Sydney High Speed Train and demand that ~80% must be sourced/engineered in Australia. It would sure give manufacturing a boost, which has been dying for a very long time.

    Don't get me wrong, I'd love $950 but won't most of that go to buying DVD Players and TV's etc!! And where are TV's made??? IMHO this is a great way to stimulate china's economy and not our own.

    I'm starting to feel like KRUDD has been a big CON!

    this will cause a stir. In my opinion rudd has just bought himself some more votes. the kind of ppl that voted for him in the first place are "usually" (please forgive for the generalisation) the sort of people that live off the government anyhow. single parents, low income couples with several children and the likes. people that try and make themselves nondependant on the government by property investment or the likes get nothing. yes, it annoys me that the taxes i pay get handed out to other people and i get zip. only one thing that may be a go is the insulation thing, i might get some worth, although theres probly a catch so investors dont get it.

    They do not like to build massive projects because they cannot sell them now to their mates or big corporations.
    Mates and corporations cannot get easy loand now and infraestructures belong to the people is out of question

    Whyalla is Australian Owned and Operated...
    Newcastle is Australian Owned and Operated...

    And until economic world crisis Whyalla was at full capacity... (I should know!)
