It would have to be people we don't yet know. The current bunch of no-hopers of all shades are certainly no good. Neither Shorten nor Turnbull are inspiring. If Abbott hadn't been stabbed on the back, the Coalition would have been returned and, with a cleanout in the Senate, could have set us back on the road to recovery. As it is, we have two gangsters blatantly buying votes with money that does not exist. There is little hope for Australia in the foreseeable future.

*rehctub If he is, there is one very HUGE difference, that being NO MONEY to waste this time and a HUGE DEBT to be serviced, if not repaid at some point in time.*

The debt can be written off quite easily.
It only involves cancelling the ridiculous orders for billions of dollars worth of clunky F35 aircraft that were only ordered to make even more profits for Lockheed Martin and also the fleet of 12 subs that have no conceivable purpose other that to inflate the ego of an admiral and of course our ex-Prime warrior Abbott.
If the tax rebates for the rich end of town were also cancelled we would find that there was squillions in the kitty.
Bringing back our ADF from it's various illegal wars would help a lot and stopping the enormous outflow of cash for the offshore concentration camps.

Paul1405, how very droll LOL.

I cannot understand why some of you people think we can continue to run up debts with other countries? At some stage we will have to repay this and before that we will get inflation or deflation. Inflation will result in the theft of all the baby boomers savings. Deflation will result in a depression.
This problem is increasingly serious and I ask anyone who thinks it isn't to tell us whether they have borrowed money but not expected to pay it back.
The problem is being passed into the future which could be here this year or next, then what?
This is a serious question, let me know what you think will happen.

Someone who will build more hospitals and fill them with doctors to treat the people who are screaming for help
Someone who will build bigger and better prisons to lock up the multitude of miscreants that terrorize our communities and return them to 'hard labor'
Someone who will stop buying arms and weapons that compliment the 'American way of life'
Someone who will give us back our guns so we can protect our lives our property and our families.
Someone who will leave our superannuation and pensions and Medicare alone.
Someone who will get rid of the Carp in our rivers and the Dengue menace.
Someone who will get rid of local government.
Someone.......
We need a dictator rather than a Prime Minister.

Well said, JBowyer!

Sooner or later this debt will bite into our savings, thus before interest-repayments make it even higher, we should raise a voluntary fund, by concerned individuals, which will repay at once all the government's debts - on condition of a new constitutional clause that will prohibit government (at all levels) from ever again taking on any debt.

At the moment we are talking about ~$33,000 per person. If we do nothing, it's only going to grow.
