Sillier, the people didn't elect the sitting government, three key independents, along with the greens did.

Labor themselves lost the election big time, however, once they are gone this time, it will be for a long time

Yet somehow, despite the near-hung parliament and in the face of a sustained the media attack frenzy, the government has managed to pass historic amounts of legislation and produce a successful economy with low inflation, low interest rates and low unemployment.

How tragic.

Dream on wobbles.

To some, like yourself, things may look just dandy out there, but in reality, we are in pretty poor shape.

There are many businesses on the verg of collapse and the majority of employees that are not in the mining sector are feeling quite insecure.

I have friends that work in government and they say that if you are not perm, you are out.

This reckless government has wasted so much money, and achieved so little with it, while at the same time brain washing the likes of yourself into thinking we are the envy of the world.

Just remember, to be the 'best' simply means being better than the rest.

How do you propose we pay back the one hundred million dollars we have been borrowing every day.

Is it by way of the carbon tax?

Or, it is by way of the mining tax?

One would have thought that to collect additional taxes from our resources , would have been to promote savings for the day when the resources are depleted. Not for the purpose of funding the governments reckless spending.

They are simply out of money and need to find more, assumably to waste.

It becomes much clearer when you realise Gillard is just John Howard in drag.
