Also it now looks like QLD is a tad unsettled after ALP sacked a member. I think this now gives them and Libs same amount of seats with Katters party holding the balance.
Katter is known as a very effective Pollie will be I interrsring to see how he uses this new power.
Wages for the majority of Australians have been falling for over thirty years.Originally Posted by plague
The average wage has managed to increase but only because the top 10% has increased substantially to more than offset losses at the lower levels.
Overall, productivity has increased much faster than wages and that increase has been taken up by the proportion of incomes going to profits becoming larger.
In the short term that's great news for business owners.
In the long terms it's a disaster because if wages fall so does spending.
The solution [and its a bad one] is to rely on households to spend more than they earn using credit.
This is the flawed logic behind surplus budgets being sustainable or indeed responsible.
You're doing it all wrong sir.
This is who the power 'sell off' campaign is aimed at.
"When I was a kid bread was 20c a loaf now it's $3 THE EVIL CORPORATIONS ARE MAKING US POOR".
If you don't think like that then there's no need to worry.
Pv4 invalid vote - no longer can discuss and issues but i guess i cant either seeing that I didnt vote/cant/living over here. So we are even mate :P

Positive result for the state for the lower hunter dissapointed.

It's a done deal the sell off. No marketing required.
In less than a years time few if any people will be even talking about the sale or indeed the price of electricity.
As soon as the media move on to their next story so will the average person on the street.
It's a bit like how when timed local phone calls were mentioned around twenty years ago people were up in arms about it and said they would never allow it to happen.
Fast forward ten years or so and most of the population have embraced using mobile phones which effectively introduced timed local calls to the masses by stealth.
The stupidity of the population never ceases to amaze.
Absolutely.

WEALTHY residents helped deliver two inner-city seats to the Greens in Saturday’s election, forging a bizarre link with their spliff-smoking hippy pals in the Greens’ northern NSW town of Nimbin
i seriously don't understand the point/angle of that article at all
The Greens hate the rich.
The rich voted for the Greens.
I can only assume there's a line in there comparing it to the Jews voting for Hitler or something.
DT addressing ALL the big issues.
(Don't worry the other mob had a feminist moaning how offended she was that Abbott ate an onion or something).
I hate everyone.
Just stick to reading the Foz. Much better for you.
In Germany it's well know the Greens are a party for the rich
Greens have always been conservatives when it comes to their ideology.
Mass unemployment and risng household debt appear to be the Greens solution to everything.
http://www.geelongadvertiser.com.au/...-1227285244566PRIME Minister Tony Abbott has launched a new jobs network at Simonds Stadium this morning.
The Government has committed $5 billion to establish jobactive, which aims to help the unemployed find work and assist employees in securing suitable jobseekers.
From July 1, 66 organisations will deliver one or more jobactive services to job seekers and employers across Australia.
The Government want to ensure there are clearer incentives to ensure employment service providers are focused on better preparing job seekers to meet the needs of local employers and helping people to find and keep a job.
Service providers will no longer receive ‘job placement’ payments. The rules around training have also been tightened to ensure that job seekers are not being sent to training, for training’s sake.
The announcement comes after a Geelong Advertiser report on unemployment surging to a four-year high in Geelong’s northern suburbs, reaching almost 20 per cent in the final months of 2014.
Long story Short. It's the failed JobsNetwork Mark III and an attempt to blame the unemployed and most vulnerable people in society for the macroeconomic failures of every Australian government since 1972.
Governments used to be concerned with full employment now they are concerned with full employability. In other words government is investing in training people for jobs that simply do not exist once again.
One hundred dogs trying to find ten bones would be a fair description of the new scheme.
the vote in balmain and newtown is clearly aimed at westconnex. it's a donkey of a road, and a terrible solution and the voters know itGreens have always been conservatives when it comes to their ideology.
Mass unemployment and risng household debt appear to be the Greens solution to everything.
Yeah everything I read was about it being against that road. Was Labor in favour of it as well? Is that why they didn't get the vote?
to be honest i hardly saw a labor or liberal stooge at any of the polling booths. i know verity firth was the labor candidate in balmain but I haven't got a monkeys as to who it was in newtown
i know who the greens candiate was though (jenny leong aka fake penny wong)
the greens hustled super hard for these seats, i saw old mate jamie parker's enormous head out there every few days in glebe
i also voted for him just to piss off MFKS
Nothing to brag about being party to these clowns destroying the nation with their nutcase policies and agendas
i reckon your mates in the big end of town might already be doing a pretty good job of that themselves without the homosex and global warmings and the like
i don't think it's the greens you should be worrying about m8
could you imagine if brandis got a hold of the member's metadata?
*search stubbins
*search kill stubbins
*location track/MFKS/root/stubbins
*MFKS stationary in prone position on grassy knoll
*search kale
*search no not that rabbit food Kale, the proper Kale.
*search michael bridges birth certificate Donald trump can jet fuel melt industrial steel
None of them in the big end of town are my mates either.
