Libs don’t want to have to explain and want to keep all debt “Labor debt.”

When unemployment nudges 8% then the Libs will want to spend to stimulate the economy. Too late—time to spend is as soon as evidence of looming recession is clear.

Now is not the time to tighten belts—the economy is still too fragile and private sector indebtedness too high. So the idiot Libs, still talking the economy down even now(!) are going to cause recession by trying, vainly, to achieve a surplus Budget.

It won't have anything to do with our new Federal Government, as you well know. Your Leftard Lot wasted all the money we had saved to splash $900 cheques to dead people and those living overseas.

If Unemployment nudges 8% that reflects backwards on what Rudd/Gillard/Rudd did ..... wasted money on stupid stuff, with no thought to the FUTURE.

Go BBQ another Feral Pig! The worms will eventually get to you. Angry

Doesn't seem to worry you when Rambo is the cook!

Prior to 2007 - there was no debt ceiling

After Rudd came to power - through their mismanagement - decide to instal a debt ceiling of $150B

This debt ceiling was meant to assure the voters that Labor's mismanagement would not exceed $150B

$300B worth of Labor mismanagement later....

Now the LIBs discovered that we need close to $500B to actually fix Labor's stupidity

And Labor is somehow angry at this???

The maximum projected debt till 2017 peaks at $370Billion but don't let the facts spoil your little fantasy.

Has he finished his term? Are we due for an election next week? No, so give him time to honour that promise. Then if he has not done so by the end of his term, your comments will have some justification behind them instead of obvious hatred and bile.

Abbott promised us a DD for early next year if Labor and the Greens refused to vote for his dimwitted Direct Action plan so given that no one in their right mind would vote for Direct Action we must go back to the polls asap or else Abbott lied to us.

Abbott hasn't lied, that's the flaw in your thinking. If he'd finished his term today, then he'd have lied. Why can't you get your head around that simple fact?

Increasing the credit card limit is the opposite of what Abbott said.

Show me a link that says he would increase the credit card limit
from one of his comments before the election.

Tony is a liar.
