Why doesn't Abbott do that here for all members of the public service?

It would save so much money & solve the debt crisis over night.

Their pay could be cut by 100% and they'd still be lucrative positions.

At least for the top knobs right across the public service, leave the already lowly paid paper shufflers ( entry level and the next couple of steps up) out of it, they get low wages in comparison to the private sector as it is.

What Honky said also goes for our parliamentarians and executives. They should be paid what they're worth, then they'd know what it's like to live below the poverty line.

And that clown Abbott gets $550,000 per annum -
more than Obama who gets $380,000.

He can take a 50% paycut - the lying prick.

Vladimir Putin could be the world’s richest man if estimates of his wealth prove correct.

of course they're estimates, he has funnelled so many assets into shelf companies he owns, no one can track them all.

and even if they're out by a few hundred million? he's what? the 100th richest? .... ohh, the poor bloke, how can he survive? maybe we should start a charity drive for him, what say you?
