so if i understand what you are trying to get at. You insinuate those who voted libs did it because of some sort of benefit only they receive?
You think thats why labor lost and libs won
No
I gave the reason why I voted the way I did. I know a number of people (Including family) who voted the way did based solely on which party would give them the best benefits.
As for others, don't know and don't really care. People make choices and they have to live with them. Said it before we move on. The next 3 years will be interesting
Nothing to do with the most pathetic leader i can remember ever put up, who based an election on a socialist mentality. Us vrs them rich vrs poor was incredible viewing, and its no wonder even after Turncoat left, he could never bridge the gap to Scomo as preferred PM. The swings were not there as they expected, because people saw through his bs. Shorten and his friends will forever be known as the people who said to the voters work hard so you are not reliant on the aged pension, and we will tax you anyway we can. Smart move 
You have a guy like bowen who couldnt even tell a reporter what the tax free threshold was and you expect voters to trust this mob to run a tax agenda?
Funny I remember somewhere in this thread you said Gillard was the worst
Don't know how to break this to you but this country has been divided "us -v- them", "rich -v- poor" for a very long time.
Politicians from both sides have been preaching division for ages and guess what we get division which we have now. In the last 10 years one of the worst has been the bloke who got turfed out on his backside on Saturday
Interested to know what you mean re your comment "Tax you anyway we can" . What in particular? Franking credits, negative gearing or the non existent death tax? Because you know the death tax was posted on FB so that one had to be true 
Sorry this was different, and you know it. They had a socialist agenda that veered too far left and it sensationally backfired.
Death tax was a crock of poo, thats not what i was talking about as i never heard any of them mention it. The other tax grabbing initiatives were a disgrace, effectively telling the voters dont bother investing because you are rich and we are out to get you. They tried and failed to convince tradies that there dependants/partners now have to pay min 30% tax on distributions, so suck it up and pay it, or pay an accountant to wind it up and start again. How about the unfortunate people who recently set up super funds were not being grandfathered for franking credit purposes, but others were
I personally had no issue with franking credits removal, IF it didnt affect the low income earners who were NOT receiving the aged pension. What i hated was they didnt allow a self funded low income retiree the same GF benefits as a pensioner, instead they were labelled by some as rorting the system. You cant give a chop out to some retirees and not others when the net income is the same or less in some cases.
The alp thought they could tax their way to an election victory, but thankfully the australian people were not that stupid.
Yes Gillard was the worst...............UNTIL this loser stepped up to the plate then he become numero uno.
Can i add albo has already flagged he will dismiss the tax grabbing agenda and listen to its voters so thats a good start.
I also think some of those things you mentioned (ndis and childcare)are very important so i hope some money is directed there soon.
