Interestingly I found myself with a Labor recommendation. From what I could find it was on the Traditional Values bit.

Not how I see myself, Labor has to much of a habit of targetting me to help their priorities.
- I'm a white, male, a single dad, long term employed, australian born english speaking with no significant disabilities.

Labors natural prey when they want someone to blame for someone elses hardships.

Glad to see the results pretty much confirmed what I suspected - centre left, with the Democrats being the primary selection, and the ALP hovering close behind.

Of course, the test can't take various minutiae into account - whilst one can approve of the ALP policy in theory, in practice, the ALP is a very different party and is more beholden to unionism than wage regulation.

There isn't a mechanism there for choosing independents, though I can't conceive of how this could be properly factored in.

Well Done Country girl,you have now discovered that Pauline Hanson has for years been supporting your own policies.
Like most of us we spend more time chasing the "Yanky Dollar".
We should spend our time on looking after Australian,both locals and indigienous instead of letting our governments,waste millions on overseas investments of taxes and Superannuantions.
It is time to implement more investment in Australia,stop our Aussie dollar weaking by the day as it has over the last forty years.
Our biggest export is our natural resourses we need a high aussie dollar to capitalise on our wealth.
The Aussie Dollar was and should be the highest value currency in the world.
With such a small population and with natural wealth we should value the AUD$ at $1:20US or 80pUK.
Why are Arabian gulf states offering their citizens,and workers TAX FREE incomes yet our LIB/LAB governments keep of thinking of more and more ways to tax us and levy us.
WAKE UP AUSTRALIA.

"We should spend our time on looking after Australian,both locals and indigienous instead of letting our governments,waste millions on overseas investments of taxes and Superannuantions."

BROCK: I'm a little unclear on your point here, so forgive me if I've misinterpreted you. One of the basic principles of investment is diversification. You don't put all your eggs in one basket, so to speak. At a national level, if we did, we truly would be a banana republic. Hence, investors from individuals to gigantic managed funds or even the government, spread things around, including overseas. Otherwise, if one market tanks, they do their shirts.

Also, far be it for me to defend governments and taxation (since I'm not exactly enamoured with either), but without taxation and government, social services don't get provided (even if inefficiently) and you have to rely on a user pays system. That's fine by me to a fair extent, but I suspect if we actually did go down that route, then a lot of people (possibly including you) would complain about the average person being at a huge disadvantage. When people think "nice place to live" they don't think the Arab Gulf states, for a whole lot of reasons.

Oh noooo, I’m a bleeding-heart leftie! (:>()

And what is even worse, I’m most closely aligned to Labor!

A Labor sympathizing bleeding-heart leftie, now there’s a concept!!

So much for that silly test!

Dear Shorbe
If Australia is such a great place to be in then why not invest in it's future growth.
That is what I mean by trying to keep your investments in Australia.
Our Superannuations are currently being gambled in the Chinese and other relatively new stockmarkets where insider trading is the "norm".
As with all investments we should not look at a short term gain,as is currently the practise by our funds managers.
Most of these funds and banks are only looking at their get rich quick statgegy and not looking after the national interest.
The NAB is a classic example of opening up in Northern Ireland,waiting for the Peace,then makingin a "killing",unfortunately the IRA thought it might be a great bank to rob.
Shorbe,regarding Taxation, if countries with small populations think that PAYE is not a good idea.Why do our governments still try to empty the few Aussies pockets who pay PAYE.
We have a host of other taxes,Water Rates,Council Rates,Royalties Tax,State Taxes and Levies,Business Taxes,Company Tax,I might have left out a hundred others but I think you understand my point how our government has managed to dupe the paying public into getting enough revenue without the poorest of the poor (earning less than
$35,000 or less,)having to pay PAYE.
