Which road? Success. Yes please. That's right, you want to drag Australia down with your own problems.

Blimy, another thread where Beoz is talking bollocks, nothing changes

the troubadour

The road to ruin. The road to diminished living standards. The road of smashing the middle/working class. The road to division. Be that be between class or ethnic make up or race or pure money. The road to over work and ever falling safety nets. The road to where Aussie young will be seeking a place of fulfilment in a country other than Australia. The road of an American style Health system. The road to an increasingly sub standard education system. The road to the completion of a totally compliant (or heavily censored by ever intruding laws) and fear driven population. Fear to step out of line, be anyhow different, speak out, rather robotic in nature.


Best advise I can give you although you cheer on such a Brave New World, is give your kids the opportunity to learn foreign languages to enable them the possibility to escape what awaits, as they likely will not sure your joy in the world you and likewise neocon's are attempting to force on the population without consultation or indeed any debate of note on the matter.

Strong growth is brilliant, but if you're leaving the weakest in society behind then it's like having a huge palacial 8 bedroom mansion, that has no foundations.

Newspoll: Coalition Government loses its 29th straight vote

the troubadour

I don't think many like 'born to rule' Turnbull and his lot of very severe ministers, whom harbour little but pain on suffering on an ever growing number of people out there in the community.


Fine if mortgage free, not young, not old, not disabled, not unemployed, not a asylum seeker on a bridging visa, not in casual employment, not just a serf, without position ,having to take all the shite being dished up by line management, supervisor, CEO disguised as observation, performance appraisal , never ending useless training, targets leaving staff member exhausted and under pressure, called aggressive if challenge, and a whole list of other things pushing people towards breaking point. No wonder mental health has become such an issue within the community and work force. Peoples relationships towards each other increasing fraught as well.


This country is so far removed from the relative ease it once was as to be becoming increasingly unrecognisable.


A new direction. More humanity. Less economics and greed emphasis. A government that does what it is supposed to. That being doing the best for all its citizens. Transparent and responsible. Not the treating of the general public, as being a nuisance whom must only be taken into account close to election times and kept at arms distance the rest of the time being fed on a diet of lies and irrelevance.

Have you received your text about the refundable tax credits on share dividends? I haven't.

Oh that's right, the Libs haven't figured out marketing through text messaging yet.

GarryP

Really ?............

Beoz

Did you just make that up? I haven't got one yet.

It is right though, a vote would for the others would be chaos, just like last time, not wrong there.

GarryP

Look at the date.

They were doing it at the last election, same as Labor.

But really, SMS marketing is old hat. If they were 'with it' they would have artificial personality AIs answer questions and engaging in conversations.

Beoz

Fair enough. One difference is the Libs were factual. The Labor text lied.

the troubadour

The present shower of Lib's couldn't lie straight in bed. What a disaster. Hopefully apathy will not win the day come next election time, nor the lies and total contempt of the people of this country, outside the top well positioned, blue rinse brigade of course, and the result will be this lot of charlatans are placed firmly in the dustbin of history, with the lid firmly screwed down, not to appear again for a least a generation and the damage already inflicted can have a chance to repair.

GarryP

Well, Labor were correct that the coalition have continued to attack medicare and were planning more (but had to rule it out to get votes). So as we have covered in the past, your talking point is a lie.

Whereas Trunbull promised 'stable government'. ...

Not been much of that stability round here over the past few years, has there?

Beoz

No no, Labor said this, and this was a blatant lie.



Liberals promised jobs and growth. Now what could be said about that?

The problem is no one trusts them with Medicare and these headlines are some of the reasons why.

As in the UK no right wing Government can be trusted with a Universal health service. May's lot are just reinforcing the stereotype of destroying these systems.

It's an absoulte stone cold certainity that given time in power the Liberals would destroy Medicare....... Take you head out the sand and accept that hard historically proven fact. You are the one proving yourself to be gullible with your ongoing mantra..... Not the Australian public.
