Shadow and co, don't you realize if the Coalition lackeys cut tax for the big end of town, there will be less crumbs falling of the rich mans table for you poor sods to feed on.
I would hate to see you go hungry, holding onto your empty begging bowl.

Paul,

With your thinking still mired in 1950 I see that this is a difficult concept.

With more investment, there will be more demand for engineers to build plants, and more jobs for people to run them. This compares favourably to the highly taxed industry and jobs slowly sinking into the socialist swamp as envisioned by labor and the greens.

Not so long back genius USA caused the GFC. Following that country's republican financial strategies shouldn't be high on anyone's agenda. It doesn't go round the world picking fights for nothing. Making weapons and it including surveillence is just about the only thing it has left to sell. We're just stupid enough to keep buying it. The only smart thing I've heard from Trump is revitalising USA's manufacturing sector. If a country does not make the finished product it will never get ahead. We should be holding on to our minerals and using them for our own makings. When our industry is gone China's prices will go up.

DD,

So the relaxation of the banking regulations by Clinton "to make loans accessible to all" that fuelled the GFC was a republican financial strategy?
