579,

I guess then that Galaxy, Nielsen, Essential Research are also stacked. After the Carbon tax and the damage it will do to the economy, Labor has lost most of its economic credibility.

This may help you understand.

So 579, is it only now that it is stacked, or, has it always been stacked. Interesting that you have only now mentioned it.

You had best grab your life jacket old mate, cause die hards like you will no doubt go down with the ship, and believe me, it's sinking.

Belly, as I have said before, I had no problem with WC, however, given the backlash it must have been bad.

All I can say is that a an employer, I never used it to my advantage.

As for IR costing jobs, to right it has.

These laws have cut through the hospitality industry, like a hot knife in butter.

Why on earth every seven day industry is not treated the same is beyond me.

How does everyone know Abbott's a better economic manager than Julia? They know no country could produce 2 such clowns, even if one is an import.

But you're right 579, he's a piker. If he were a good economic manager it would be a hundred & ten thousand public servants given the flick. That should get it down to about an overmanning of 200%.

With any luck, we might just get him in in time to stop the Greek disease in Oz. What do you reckon, a 30% reduction in public service pensions sounds fair, if a little generous?

No carbon price has started yet. Upper class welfare, is in the firing line, and rightly so. Welfare reform for the well to do.
Company tax rates have been cut, Butch so you can start butcherin again.
The noalition have no hope when it comes to the economy, Hockey has posted a 70 billion black hole, and it's unexplainable.
The art of running a country is to keep employment as high as possible, by making opportunities as attractive as possible. You can't do that with putting public service out of a job. There is transformation going on, only to be expected with the high dollar, and world downturn.
But this govt; has it's finger on the pulse and we are doing fine.
You can't run an economy by giving rich people tax breaks, those days are over.
With the latest investment going on 236 billion, labour will be in short supply again.

A lot better to pay them the dole to do nothing, then pay them top money to do nothing, then have to pay for buildings for them to do nothing in, followed by a huge pension for doing nothing.

Ask Greece about what that gets you.

579, any fool can make thing look good, all they need do is keep throwing money at it.

It's just a shame they are throwing money that we don't have.
