Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

Why are you suddenly throwing increased company taxes in the mix?

Yes, perhaps living in Adelaide is a reason for high levels of casual and part time work - I've no idea but the argument is not...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

I've seen the information on the tax cuts before - I fail to see how that helps people earn more. The fact is, if I only earn $18.000 pa because there is only part time work available, and the...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

What are the incentives because I must have missed that?

I do know that a bog standard TAFE course is around $1200 (or at least here in SA), that trade skills can only be learnt if you have an...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

If most are getting pay cuts then how does that lead to economic growth?

If we assume that you meant tax cuts (hark at the pot) then for the poorer end of town, it will hardly lead to economic...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

It was a question, that was all. No need to get defensive.

There is plenty of evidence that the Liberals would like the same. The budget papers show they are aiming for a flat tax for everyone...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

Do you think a flat tax rate is fairer than progressive tax?

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

I find some of your language seriously distasteful at times.
Someone who is out of work (and I don't believe that this is the case with Troubadour) doesn't deserve to be called a leech, a dole...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

You have to hope that is true, but If they are only 'run off their feet' for a limited part of the day then it may be unlikely that a new worker is hired and if she does, it may only be for very...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

current penalty rates pay workers double on Sundays. Every other cost would be the same I would think. If they think they would be twice as busy on a Sunday to a Tuesday, even paying penalty rates,...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

Because it is not only pensioners using these establishments during the week.

However, all of them are still open. So if they can run successfully with the 'measly pickings' with no penalty rates...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

Really???

I guess they are all running at a loss during the week then when pay is at it's lowest anyway, and I am clearly shopping, eating out, etc at the wrong times.

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

I didn't because to the point raised I didn't see the relevance of including it. The point was that a union was rallying behind another group of workers which will be affected by changing penalty...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

It is possible but I would have to see it to believe it. The government is already looking at cutting corporate tax rates and that would achieve the same results as you are suggesting without...

Re: Bye bye Liberal Government..... will you ever learn.

I think it would be hard to find someone who likes voting, let alone find someone standing who wasn't a liar at some level.
