Obviously Leon didn’t carefully read his own article before declaring his position and opinion.
If the proportion of SUV’s and Ute’s by his own figures have increased by 68.8%, you would naturally expect that the number of incidents involving them would also increase. Unfortunately he does not include figures to support the amount of the actual increase, whereby he is expressing a personal opinion, not a factual supported position.
For anyone, including me to take a position other than one based on perceptions or personal prejudices without providing ALL THE FACTS, they are better not to offer an opinion to influence others.45erParticipantA lot of good social spending.
However the energy subsidy is a smoke and mirror exercise. All Governments have put higher taxes on energy forcing prices up for fuel and power, which in turn forces the prices for everything up creating inflationary pressures across the whole economy.
They then tax us further so they can look good by paying us a rebate, why not remove the additional taxes on energy that are in place and reduce inflationary costs pressure.
The current situation is will cause us to be uncompetitive in world market, cause higher higher prices for imports and be even more expensive inflationary.They have been fortunate enough to this past year to have had higher than expected export earnings from mining.
When you look at the projections they are expecting that situation to reverse and for our debt to increase further.
That means that the interest on the debt is also increasing, and that which cannot go on, we must start paying down our debt, and otherwise Paul Keating’s view that we will become a banana Republic will come true.
There is nothing in the budget for tax breaks for singles, whether living independently (irrespective of age), or single parents.45erParticipantActually the Parliamentary Liberal Party select their Leader (Chairman) from among the party member selected candidates that have been successful in winning their seats. A Liberal Prime Minister is not selected by the Party members, the Party Organisation, the public, and most of all by the Media (who are even least represented and operating in their own interest.
Unlike many countries, people elect whom they consider the best candidate for their electorate, the do not vote for the person who is the incumberant leader, or the person selected by the successful Parliamentary candidates.
As for the alledged knowledgable media I suggest the go back and study the ENTIRE Australian constitution, and the States Rights and responsibilities, because from the majority of what I seen they do not have clue.
Speaking with those who have study the constitution and states relsationships, they all tell me the same thing, they only studied those areas in which there previously been controversies, not the whole, and never in full context.
Many of the commentators appear to have no understanding of how the relationship between States and Federasl Governments operate, nor whom has responsibilty for what.
All they are interested is stirring up controversy to keep them employed, while claiming to be the experts. as the old saying goes,” An expert is a Drip under pressure”, and they just like to prove it.
