It is very likely that Unemployment will be on an upward trend & that will be the case under either Labor or Liberal.

It is also likely that, as in the USA & other countries, the Unemployment rate will be masked to some extent, due to the larger than usual & increasing number of people moving out of the workforce, thus "creating" jobs for others.

This "phenomenon" is, of course, due to the Retirement of the largest generation in human history, THE BABY BOOMERS.

As that process will continue for quite some time, it will mask the likely REAL Economic position, for a while, until the proverbial really hits the fan, over the next few years & then the real position will become more transparent, unfortunately.

Wouldn't that just create more jobs?

Actually with less tax payers Newstart should get cut by $50 a week to help maintain the budget surplus

No not so. It will create far to much, of a social underclass. The Newstart allowance, is nowhere near enough now, as it is.

It will create more vacancies than usual, for a while, BUT it won't actually be "Growing" the size of the pie!

And then, the cost of the Retiring Boomers will be growing, including Pensions, Health & lower Superannuation bennfits than will be required will finally catch up, together with higher Energy Costs AND THAT'S WHEN THE PROVERBIAL WILL REALLY HIT THE FAN, thus overwhelming the jobs front!

Just as well the Coalition risked all to bring in the GST.

A shrinking tax payer base was one of the critical reasons behind introducing a broad based tax system.

Damned pity Hewson's GST was butchered by Lefties in 1993. 20 years of 15% GST (50% more revenues) would have seen this country in a much better state.

Sad

You'd have had more dole in your pocket too Crook....your kind shot themselves in the foot...

Typical comment of a qunt that cares not for the less fortunate.
