It seems people are voting on what promises are made??

Why don't they vote on what promises last election were delivered??

Seems this country is full of people who are thick as shite, no wonder we have the highest per capita victims of monetry fraud, look at the thousands who fall for Nigerian scams how many have their IDs stolen, how many are skimmed at ATMs etc.

Its a deadset given that with a majority of ozzies unable to look at what wasn't delivered last election are prepared to beleive the promises made this time around that labor will get over the line again??


I just fail to see how ppl can be so stupid to vote for more of the same, more waste more lies more spin more policy failures back flips and shelved.

Can anyone seriously beleive that the rail link that wasn't even on the 10 year plan for state labor is now a policy, its got no money allocated to it as the infrastructure fund only has 700 million in it yet were told it needs 1.4 billion in funds that don't exist??

This NBN debacle, what policy has labor delivered that gives you confidence in the NBNs delivery, which policy came in on budget on time and works as designed??

I can think of none, prove me wrong.

Has anyone any idea how much it costs to do cabling? Foxtel stated it was about $100 per metre to dig and run cabling that was back in 2004 which is why Foxtel doesn't do cable Tv any more all satelite for new connections, Now run that cable up each side of the street or from one side and then under the road to each house on the other side of the road and your looking at $1500 in cabling costs per house given a 15 metre frontage or under road cable to house. How many 100s of thousands of Kms of streets are there that will need cabling done??

What about this cash for clunkers rubbish, bonuses for teachers fishing bans carbon tax mining tax illegal immigrant debacle.

Now look at what we face if labor get in, Brown has stated he wants 50% mining tax and if they hold the balance of power his 50% and labors 10% will be negotiated to 20% you wait and see, ban on fishing areas, here we have Gillard claiming job creation is No1 priority yet this fishing ban will effect 10s of thousands in a cross section of industry associated with fishing, Trawlers, Fish co ops, boat builders, bait shops, major impact on tourist areas where fishing is the draw card and there are many areas that will become marine reserves.

Now they propose a carbon sink.How much carbon does a tree draw in and store?? What industries in what country currently has to buy carbon permitts to operate??? NONE. So who will these carbon credits be sold to??? NO ONE. its all a big con and people are falling for the spin again.

It seriously defies logic.


Now I am not expecting any responses to any of the points I have raised, becaus eyou can't argue against the truth.

i forget to ask,


With this NBn at 43billion, can anyone tell me what it will cost to subscribe to it??

Currently I pay $49 a month unlimited through optus with ADSL2 and for what I do it is plenty fast enough.

How much will the monthly fees for NBN be??????

It's not much really, sorry, but it really doesn't justify the opportunities they conveniently turn a blind eye to these days, I don't suppose you would like me to list them.

....Recall the days when Greens were a formidable environmental presence truly caring about our environment, not what they could get out of any given election campaign by means of preference votes?

Sorry, but they have really disappointed me lately, now they are more about themselves, and their own luxury cars being "Green" than anything else.

I suppose it had to happen some time.

About the same, no data caps, greatly improved speed/bandwidth and you can put your phone on it.

Greens_Win2k10 I think most of those are Labor initiatives 

Add one more: Greens got a total lack of action on climate change by voting with the other dinosaur denialists against the CPRS!

Greens are not with Labor ... Greens did a preference deal because Liberals voted with Labor to vote down a Greens Bill to end Party Preference Deals.

Greens were required to preference one old party over another,because Liberal Voting with Labor again !!!


As for Unions donating to a political party ... it shows that Unions are seeing Greens as the best political party to protect Australian Rights.
