Abbott this morning on MMM said we need an election. Eddie asked if they even had policies yet and all he could say was "....*pause*.. Reduce government spending."
And seeing he has stated he will repeal everything including a major tax reform that forms part of the carbon tax legislation (lifting in the tax threshold that is a major benefit to ALL Australians) then he has to reduce spending on EVERYTHING .. I mean really what else can he say when they don't have a policy on anything and the ones they had they cant' afford to fund?
BTW I really do hope people realise that by him repealing the carbon tax and everything associcated with it he intends by default make people pay more take
but that's a discussion for the 2013 election
So back to the topic.....So if they get elected next time (2013) and when they've cut spending on defence, education, health not given any increase to pensioners and of course turf the major national disability insurance scheme that's due to introduced and phased in over the next 2 years*** in 2014 or 2015 I'll sit back and wait for the inevietable sooking from the masses (of which there will be plenty) who voted for it because that's what going to happen
*** an important policy refrom from the current govt (which Abbot promised to bi-partisim support originally but has now reneged on) that is desperately neded in area so oftem neglected. Say what you like about the current PM but this is one of the most important reforms that this country needs and it will be Gillard's greatest (some may say onl) legacy.
