Individual,
All that's left to say is to point out the old adage, "Change is life and life is Change"

Better get used to it as you can't stop it, and there ain't no going back,

At least this way you won't be so filled with bitterness towards so many people.

rechtub,

Your wild generalizations remove any last vestige of credibility you might have had.

"every thing they have touched they have stuffed up"

What nonsense.

I would point out, yet again, the following:

Right now, today, Australia has among the lowest unemployment in the developed world;

During the GFC, Australia did not even go into recession, and a Labor government was in place the entire time;

We have among the lowest levels of public sector debt in the developed world;

We are generally considered to be the the most successful country in the world in becoming an effective multicultural society;

Our interest rates are the lowest they've been for many years;

And this is after Labor has been in power for more than four years.

I could go on and on, but that is quite enough to demonstrate the absurdity of your proposition as quoted.

I suspect you're letting your hatred get ahead of your common sense.

Paul 1405,

When interacting with individual you have to keep in mind that you are not dealing with an intellectual giant, hence his oft and hasty retreat to abuse.

We've all been on the receiving end at one time or another, especially those with a brain, which is a condition that individual particularly resents.

He tries hard, but, well, he's not yet able to sit at the grown up's table.

We have to be patient.

Gee Paul, you could be on TV promoting our buitiful Queensland, you know, Hoges style.

Anton...Right now, today, Australia has among the lowest unemployment in the developed world;

Yep, it's just a pitty that ONE HOUR PER WEEK is considered as employed. It doesn't even need to be paid work.

...During the GFC, Australia did not even go into recession, and a Labor government was in place the entire time;

Yep, sure does help to have had hard saved money in the bank hey. The key words being HAVE HAD.

....We have among the lowest levels of public sector debt in the developed world;

Yep, with a very small population, relying very heavily on mining, and our debt has gone from some $20billion IN THE BANK to some $150billion IN THE RED in JUST FIVE ODD YEARS.

....We are generally considered to be the the most successful country in the world in becoming an effective multicultural society;

Yet many don't assimilate,, nor do they respect our nation or our ways, so what does that achieve? Very little I'm afraid.

....Our interest rates are the lowest they've been for many years;

And that's in a desperate effort to stimulate the economy, which is failing as lack of confidence is causing many to use the extra to reduce debt.

....I could go on and on, but that is quite enough to demonstrate the absurdity of your proposition as quoted.

Yes, so could I, but I think EVERYONE KNOWS the extent of the stuff ups by this incompetent mob, from pink bats to out of control borders, but hey, why let the truth get in the way of a good story, hey Anton!

Given that you are such a strong supporter of Julia, I feel for you as you will be in no-mans land come September, bring it on I say!

Anton, I just don't get it, how you, or anyone for that matter, can call this governments past five odd years, a success.

You say we dodged a bullet, when it came to a recession, yet, if not for the shape the nation was in, at hand over, we would not have been able to maintain the out of control borrowings that were the reason why we avoided the recession.

I can't imagine the coalition would have the capacity to borrow some 1200 billion dollars, which is essentially what labor has done, when they took our borrowings from minus 20 to plus 150 billion. About 8 fold.

You can keep spending, or in this case, wasting, as much money as you want, just keep borrowing money, at least until the bank says no!

Just prey that we don't loose mining.

Poor old rechtub,

Such inaccuracies are hardly worth responding to.

But this I will say, i'm not a supporter of Julia, but I am a supporter of fair mindedness; of dealing with facts; of not letting emotion and blind hatred distort reality.

Thus I take issue with the wildly over exxagerated nonsense you push.

Some people are never happy unless they're hating someone. I feel sorry for you as you appear to be one of these.

I'm just wondering if it might be that your own managerial ineptitude led you to lose a bundle of money and now you're desperately searching for someone else to blame.

Ah, thinks the old butcher, blame Julia, she's a politician, a lefty and a woman

So, it must be her fault.

What else could explain the bitterness and misplaced hatred you display
