The Howard government have had their time. They are now where they belong. In the rubbish bin of history. With their workchoices.

Yes, shame on Howard and Costello for paying off Keatings' debt and leaving office with a string of surpluses and billions in the bank. It'd have been much better that they didn't have a single surplus, ran up a debt nearing half a trillion dollars and deterred investment by introducing carbon and mining taxes!

Shame on Howard as treasurer for contributing to that debt - about 40% of the debt was his responsibility.

Howard was the worst treasurer in our history and was an economic illiterate.

Costello got lucky with the resources boom - which we pissed away on tax cuts and handouts.

The minority that (already and increasingly) pay the majority of tax.

Better able to pay you say?

A bit like proposing young people are fitter and more able to work longer hours so they should work 60 hour weeks instead of 40 for the same pay Cheesy

The minority that pay the majority of tax because they own the majority of wealth.

Income is taxed, not wealth.

.

The primary reason that most wealthy people have low incomes.

This topic is about the fact that apart for the good things that Costello achieved that Howard and Costello in the end managed to leave the Australian economy structured in a manner doomed to failure in anything but a very high growth period, they had doomed the economy to high debt in any economic downturn.

They got the strategy wrong because of the belief that the good times would last forever.

This position is the major driver that has made Rudd, Gillard, Swan, Hockey and Abbott look very bad on economics.

All a leftie conspiracy I suppose
Longie?

And that’s without including some $40 billion in tax concessions for superannuation, which accrue overwhelmingly to the wealthiest 20 per cent of taxpayers.

But even Labor will not touch the super tax concessions.
The super industry is just another millionairs factory.

Labor cut spending in every budget except for the GFC incentive spending.

The Abbott governments uncontrolled spending has been a major feature of their term in government to this point.
