What freakin' "performance"??
Performance, by definition, means having done something; usually something useful....
A bit harsh Froggie....We are getting new fighter jets once they can get them off the ground.....We are also getting new subs from the Japanese because Australian ship builders are required for Abbott's green army.....We will also get a PPL scheme that will cost 6 billion a year to reward the mother with the biggest income who get the most benefit.....We will get higher University fees to make education of the poor more unattainable.....We will get higher fuel and gas prices prices.....We will get the unemployed to suffer for six months on nothing whilst unemployment rises.....We will have to pay more to see the doctor but there is a chance we will cure cancer (better hope you don't catch Ebola).....We will be able to contribute to the extermination of more Muslims in the Middle East and it will only cost a few billion a year.....What is there not to like Froggie???
"We are getting new fighter jets once they can get them off the ground" - They're already flying, including our first two for the RAAF.
"We are also getting new subs from the Japanese because Australian ship builders are required for Abbott's green army" - No decision has been made as to where the subs will come from or be built. Also, an Army has no use for submarines, unless they can sail under land.
"We will get higher fuel and gas prices prices" - You didn't seem to mind paying much more on the carbon tax. Ten bucks a year extra on the fuel excise increase - it's a pittance!
"We will have to pay more to see the doctor but there is a chance we will cure cancer (better hope you don't catch Ebola" - Only for the first ten visits and only if you don't already qualify for free services as a pensioner, etc.
"We will be able to contribute to the extermination of more Muslims in the Middle East and it will only cost a few billion a year" - So we should allow Muslim fanatics to indiscriminately murder innocent women and children? Choose your words extremely carefully, as Hitler was the last person to refer to "extermination" in the way you have and what is occurring in the Middle East now with our fighter jets is not comparable in the least.
