Disaster for the Australian way of life is now on the line so whatever is on offer that will commit to retaining it and correct the wrongs introduced by bad government, will find the support of most of Australians. Can you publish something suitable to put up on Facebook please.

with petty bitching & political posturing… Get on with the Job

When the Coalition showed their true colours you got angry and elected the ALP.
When the ALP/GREENS showed their true colours you got angry and elected the Coalition.
When a new or other Party suggests to you that NEITHER Party is looking out for YOUR best interests….you say they can’t be trusted and it would be crazy to vote for a new party!
BUT the real definition of CRAZY is doing the same thing OVER and OVER again
And hoping for a different RESULT!
In Australia we suffer from OVER GOVERNMENT!
The Westminster system bestowed upon Australia by England was originally designed as ONE government for ONE country.
Upon Australia being surveyed and it’s sheer size being established, England settled for SIX states to be governed separately by SIX state governments overseen by SIX state Governors.
Here is a quote from 1923 in a letter from Hubert French to the Ford Motor Company in Canada:
“Australia’s great disease is over government. Thirteen houses of parliament, six Governors and one Governor General, all appointed by Britain speaks for itself, especially when it is borne in mind that no MP receives less than 500 pounds per annum.”
The population at this time was 6 million!

Fast forward to the 21st century and add an average of 30 local councils per major city.
All State governments continually sell off public assets! State governments, upon gaining power, continually raise prices! State government continually blames the previous party although there is little between their style of governance, other than the wording!
All government are elected to govern our taxes to the very best of their ability in the best interests of both the state and federal electorate (the voting public).
Please note; NO POLITICIAN will lose entitlement no matter what cuts are made to the populations pensions and public services!
So, what is the biggest expenditure incurred by the Australian Electorate?
Attempt to calculate the TOTAL cost of all of the above and then realize that ALL of the above is paid for by YOU before 1 cent is spent on your services.
ALL of your local services, your state government and your federal government is PAID for by YOU while they continue on an annual basis, to raise YOUR rates, sell YOUR public assets, and FAIL to manage, in YOUR best interests YOUR collective taxes.
My 16 year old Grandson is about to start work.
His taxes, in part, will go toward the supportive payments of past governments from the 1980’s to the present day!
And also the debt of today into the future!
