Sadly Swag, you don't understand anything yet again. Government cross-subsidise public transport infrastructure. .

.....the court is also public infrastructure....the fees subsidise its cost in exactly the same way as a fare susidises the cost of public transport Huh

my point exactly.

....so glad that you agree that Labor wants to flay the income tax payer......yet again

And the point of public infrastructure enables all citizens access to society's facilities. So yes, raising the divorce fees is not a problem provided they at least investigated how it affects all citizens. There is a difference between, say, raising fees on public transport by 100% vs. raising fees on super contributions on higher incomes by 100%. It affects different demographic. I don't know if the govt did this or not but if they did, they should have been able to present a logical case that would have persuaded the senate - if not Labs (which the Libs say they oppose everthing, like Abbott, former opposition) then the crossbench. Of course all the diehard libs probably will just say that any opposition to lib policy must be the work of the devil and their worshippers or the like. Sad

Notice again - no talk of reducing public service wages?

That's another way to solve the budget deficit
but no Govt. wants to take on the public service unions.

This is all about cowardice.

So true. Those politicians who serve the public can make a big example and work for free - as is the expectation of the diehard libs .... oh wait, there are some contradictions here.

The public service can do the right thing & reduce their wages
to stop us from borrowing money to pay them.
