Hi Nail,
Tony has made his view clear on some of those issues:

What's wrong with the above Bobby??

Nail got 2 out of 3 wrong.
Those issues were addressed.
This is about topics that are forbidden to talk about.

I have noticed that there are many forbidden subjects in this election.

Here are some to get this thread started:

LIST OF FORBIDDEN SUBJECTS

(1) Negative gearing.
(2) GST on online sales.
(3) Tax on startup company shares.
(4) Policy on the 12 new proposed subs.
(5) F35 strike fighter purchases to go ahead?

Please feel free to add to the list.

Question: is there a secret agreement between the main parties not to discuss these topics?

I think you confuse 'forbidden' with 'no one cares'

So the Govt. destroying startup companies is not important?

Yep you are dead right. None of the pollies will talk about electric cars or any car with a mains plug on the end of it. Funny about that. Not enough fuel excise in it for them Wink

16) Electric Cars

Also

17) Why asbestos is banned for causing lung cancer but cigarettes aren't !!

LIST OF FORBIDDEN SUBJECTS

(11) US troops & bases in Australia.

Whilst the both parties could crap on endlessly how there are a couple of thousand US troops in Australia, Im wondering about the subject of US bases in Australia are you talking about the joint communications facilities or the lack of US bases and the desire to actually get some or some other stupid conversation about things that are pretty irrelevant to the election.

The list seems pretty cretinous, but that is to be expected now isin't it.
