Another typically biased piece from the Daily Telecrap. Long on opinion and short on facts.....

Moreover, you can't believe a word it says because Armpit likes to change the text to suit his own needs.

What has he changed this time?

The budget has produced an overwhelming negative response. It's not just the ALP that disagree. The problem is the solution is simply an ideological attack (on the poor, the sick the young, the old etc) to a problem that while important is hardly urgent.

If this is such an emergency then why are we still subsidising the coal industry? Why is he cutting other existing revenue sources? The reason is because it's all about ideology, and not about a spending problem.

Do you know how much the coal industry provides this country, in terms of jobs, capital, coal for power generation, etc? Far more than the car industry ever did! You'd rather see the mining industry cease, eh? That's a sure-fire way of destroying the economy!

Coal mining employs about 51 000, and receives billions a year in subsidies and tax benefits .,... the car industry employed a similar number and recieved very little in comparison. The car industry has the potential to go on indefinitly, the coal industry has 20 to 50 yrs left at best

where would a smart person put his money?

I guess Holden and Ford didn't donate enough to the libs Cheesy

'Mining is a smaller employer than the gambling industry, and despite public perceptions that the manufacturing industry is in steep decline, the manufacturing industry in Australia actually employs around five times as many people as the mining industry. '

Considering the profits the industry are making, which are substantial they don't require any subsidies.

Says crocodile of the forum... Tongue

Is he a thin turd.

Quote:

Piers Akerman was born in Wewak, Papua New Guinea, the third son in a family of four children[1] of John, an Australian Government doctor, and Eve Akerman (d. 2003), a newspaper columnist and reviewer. The family left PNG for India in 1951, before returning to Perth, Western Australia, where Piers was raised.

He attended Guildford Grammar School, where he remained until his expulsion, when he was "asked to leave" following a dispute with the headmaster. He spent the last few months of his schooling at Christ Church Grammar School but did not complete his final exams.

Such an enviable list of achievements. Pass the salt please, I need a few grains.

HMM, makes you wonder why gambling taxes are not included as States income in the Grants Commission carve up of GST?
