Lexi,

Other than most of the issues you blame Howard for were the responsibility of the State labor governments, none of you have provided one issue of bad governance.

I see your sole source of reading material "The New Matilda" 's author Ben Pobjie has produced yet another "opinion piece" dripping in sarcasm and little else. This article like most in the TMW avoid dealing with facts as they might derail their self gratification.

Dear SM,

Hard to penetrate concrete so I'm not even
going to try. The facts are there for anybody
willing to do their research. The Howard government left
Australia with significant liabilities in terms of our
physical and intangible assets - our common wealth.
And if the Howard cabinet had been the board of a
publicly listed company, the shareholders would have
thrown them out for weakening the company's asset base.

As for the New Matilda article. The author is a satirist
and one has to have a sense of humour to be able to
appreciate him. But as you pointed out on another thread
people with certain brain deficiencies aren't able to
appreciate humour.

Lexi,

If the facts are there, please share them. I suspect you can't. You are only able to repeat vague accusations floated by unsupported "opinion pieces" in greenie rags such as the New Matilda.

Major infrastructure projects are best suited for times of low employment, as these provide jobs and don't take valuable labour from private industry. The GFC saw no major infrastructure from labor, and the money was wasted.

Dear SM,

Hmmm, let's see. Should I go into detail for
you and do your research. No - can't be bothered.
Because no matter what I post - you only have
the capacity to follow your leader.

The facts are there to be found. All one has to do
is one's research.
There are many sources to chose from on the web - not
only the partisan media that you seem to select and
prefer.

As for the key achievements of the current government -
they are many - and cover more then just decisive action
during the GFC. Again - do your research. Although -
I suspect - you'd prefer to start new threads telling
all of us - how bad Labor is. I shall leave you to
do your job. I notice you've started a new thread -
can't wait to read how much diversity it will contain.

Lexi,

You are very fond of spouting your opinion, but never bother to back it up, other than with the occasional link to yet another factually deficient opinion piece in the almost readerless New Matilda.

I would like just once for you to put your money where your mouth is. Presently I don't believe you have the IQ to do so.

Dear SM,

Unlike yours old chap - my information is always based on
facts. I do my research before I post. And I get the
information from a variety of sources. I did tell you to do your
own research. If you want facts
and don't know how to get them - go to your local library
and they shall be more than happy to assist you.

As for my IQ - its not, unlike some people's,
based on shoe-size.

Judging from your posts -obviously continuous effort (not intelligence) is the key
to unlocking your potential.
