    I suppose most of us have heard that the coalition's first priority will be to get us back in the black.

    Along with the recindering of the carbon tax (cant forget that one!!).

    To do this they will have to make cuts and possibly increase taxes.

    Since its customary for the coalition to reduce spending and make cuts in the following areas

    This time will be no different in my opinion.

    OOHHH and lets not forget

    If we vote for a coalition government then we should expect a bit of pain...................?

    thoughts..????????????????????????

    15% GST, and increased income taxes back to the level they were before labor took governance.

    Other costs will be a decrease in productivity, back to levels the coalition are also accustomed to when times are tough. Maybe 22% interest rates and high inflation and plummeting house prices along with dilapidated public health and education systems. Massive increase in imports, 10% unemployment.

    I shouldn't be too negative, because there will be other positives such as the rich being able to buy bigger boats and many more exotic holidays, while the low life workers work for peanuts and have to resort to crime to make ends meet. This should sort out the good people from the bad......sorry, I keep being inadvertently negative.

    Hang on for dear life people, conservative economic management will put us in the same predicament other countries with conservative governments have placed their economies, "in recession". Labor have brought us through hard times on a number of occasions which strongly suggest they have appropriate economic policy and ideals to pull us through........."Do Not" trust Fony Abbott with our economy, for goodness sake he and his bumbling buffoon of a treasurer still haven't worked out his $70billion dollar black hole! Peter Costello himself said that Abbott lacks economic proficiency to the effect he couldn't manage a chook raffle....it would probably run at a loss!

    It will probably be similar to Qld with many austerity measures...whoops...public service job cuts...
    and maybe the sale of a few government assets...nothing changes really after a Labor government is kicked out..
    just the size of the new majority....and thats usually huge......!!!

    Costello made the statement, it's easy to find free2lie, so check it out! Australia will be going down the gurgler under this guys goverance with the support of his bumbling buffoon of a shadow treasurer. They're yet to show us how they're going to fix their $70billion budget black hole! The media aren't eagerly chasing this and holding them to account......strange isn't it!

    I think you will find that it will not matter what government is voted in the next election, You can expect a bit of pain. Again Gillard is showing her strips with the
    http://www.theaustralian.com.au/nat...-tax-abbott-vows/story-fn59niix-1226589910399

    So apparently the billion dollar promise is totally relent on details pertaining to the M4 4 East project.

    but when she has spent money she has not got, where the hell do you think she will get this funding.

    Also she is changing her stance on foriegn workers.

    apparently she forgets pretty fast the mining she OK'ed the temporary visas for.
