  1. you are right, but 22% of the vote is still significant, even if it doesn't transfer in to seats.
  2. We could go on forever.
  3. Pretty sure Howard did say that initially. He did take the GST to one of the later election during his reign. Remember it well, Its when I became a floating voter. At least he took it to an election. We could mention "there will be no carbon tax under a government I lead" or more recently "Household electricty bills will be $275 cheaper"
  4. Fair enough, just pointing out the average miner makes a lot more than the average checkout person so they contribute more tax.
  5. I think we are seeing the same sort of thing with an industrial farm in NSW. more to come.
  6. Putting kids on e bikes on the road or footpaths puts people in hospital
  7. I do think these people and company's do need to pay there fair share of tax though which appears not to be happening.
  8. So what we are saying is we need some politicians with balls to think long term about the future of Australia and not just about the next election. So yes our present system is a con. Having said that I would rather it then some of the alternatives. She kind of does pay for it indirectly. Most of these people she employs pay a lot of tax and again at least she is Australian and supports other things. More than would happen if she was an overseas company.
  9. Not really productive, people saying that and calling people things like "perilous pauline" and what ever people call Trump reminds me of how Sky news talk about people. So some are no better than the people, organisations they dispise.
  10. Nobody said she was. As long as she isn't breaking the laws of the land...... she still employs a lot of Australians in well paying jobs at the moment.
  11. Has she done anything illegal. She still employs 1000s of Australians. like I said there is 1000s if not 1000000s of business people whos morals may be questionable but if they are breaking no laws good on them. It is up to governments to fix this sort of thing. Happen in motor racing all the time. The racers push the boundys and if the governing bodies dont like it the change the rules. pretty basic really.
  12. Blame the pollys, not the people that take advantage of it. Of course I care about people getting rich through lying.. Talking to our local politician about the huge renewable hydrogen con SA has lost millions of dollars on.
  13. Bag Hanson, don't bag someone who is not breaking the law, employing Australians, supporting sporting and other associations. Bag the current set of politicians for letting it happen. again Murdoch is a businessman and obviously a very good one. As long as they don't break Australian laws so be it. The only ones that can change this is our Politicians If you think Albo is doing such a good job, contact him and get him to change it. Good luck!
  14. And who lets her do that. If it upsets you, talk to your government representatives. Sound like a lot have people think the current government is good, partition them for change. A lot of people talk about people they don't like how sky news talk about people they don't like. She is not in jail or been arrested so she has done nothing wrong. Some of her stuff may not be real ethical but you could say that about 1000s of business people. I don't think the current and past goverments (both sides) will do anything wrong because they want to t future prospects.
  15. Why pick on Gina, she is not the only one smart enough making the most of our current mining laws. We should be happy she is an Australian doing it and as long as she is not breaking any laws good on her. If you don't like it write to your politicians. the clowns that are in at the moment aren't doing anything about it. She employs are large amount of Australians in very good paying jobs. Just because you don't like her politics says a lot more about you than her.
  16. $2.80 in regional SA
  17. How big are the massive batterys in WA
  18. So same as the other pollys, they all promise what they can't give
  19. That is a matter of opinion, I own my own home and I wouldn't have it any other way. That is a self centered comment.
  20. I think she will be getting a lot of the protest vote about the quality of the 2 major party's and they have no one to blame but themselves. Have a look at some of the videos of the senate estimates. are they really that stupid that they don't realise social media makes how the act in parliament accessible to the masses now days. It use to be that you would only get 30 seconds on nightly news.
  21. Why compare us to Europe, People compare the price of petrol in Europe to Australia price when we say its to expensive here. You can catch a train from Amsterdam to Vilnius for 60 euro. Not much is the same. We should be able to afford houses. I have 2 kids looking and both can't afford and they get pretty upset about it. The ball has really been dropped the ball on this one.
  22. You mean the mean girls, they still haven't apologised for that appalling display
  23. Solar and wind is the cheapest form of electricity but it also needs a lot of backup, extra transmission, storage and artificial inertia which makes the whole package expensive. Snowy 2 was quoted at $4B currently at $12B and they are talking $20B. I know a lot of you won't like the host(some of his views are a bit out there) but his guest has a pretty good explanation of what is really happening. it can be seen by those inside the industry as well.
  24. As long as she is not doing anything illegal, good on her still. Large companys always push the boundrys. Qantas selling seats on flights that don't exist, com bank, woolies, coles. Put some CEO's in jail will fix it.
  25. Yep and no need to rebuild the intermittents as nuclear comes on line.
