The previous Howard government was notorious for wedge politics. This is just more of the same from one of the old war horses of that government.
Tony Abbott is doing his level best to ensure that the voters who deserted the Liberal Party last election will do the same again and soon. Meanwhile, another old war horse of the Howard days, (Honest) Joe Hockey is claiming to be all for classical liberalism and has taken to quoting John Stuart Mill. http://australia.to/2010/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1459:in-defence-of-liberty-joe-hockey-speech-to-grattan-institute&catid=101:australian-news&Itemid=167 Both Abbott and Hockey should be members of Actors' Equity. Why they lost government is a total mystery to these old war horses who should have been put out to graze (off our taxes of course) long ago. Posted by Cornflower, Monday, 15 March 2010 1:24:55 PM

Europe and China are pushing for new Monetary rules.
GDP is a failed policy.
Unemployment is here to stay. States will have to develop a "ROTATION" system where the employed must exchange places with the Unemployed for periods of time to allow for financial survival. The unemployed if they refuse "three job exchanges" will forfeit benefits.
