The FACT that Trump swore not to start such overseas Wars/Adventures will Probably be the  Most  significant ACT in bringing his inevitable demise ON. Nev.

Is that anything like albo and co promising not to change negative gearing? Maybe they both had their fingers crossed.

Changing the conditions for negative gearing in a small economy like Australia's would not endanger the global economic system in the way unprovoked attacks on the economy of another country have done.

Still a broken promise though. Albo probably had more plans on doing it then Trump did.

Didn't someone once promise that Australia would not have a Goods and Servies Tax?

 The already rich and wanting to be much richer would wish to increase GST which hurts the POOR the Most and creates Heaps of Paperwork. Conservatives wish to increase it. Maybe we end up like the UK, A dead hand on everything at the rate they have. IF I was da King I would abolish it. Tax should be imposed on those who can afford to Pay it, Firstly.  Nev

Yes, he did. The difference is he took it to an election when he changed his mind. Huge difference! Maybe we could mention "there won't be a carbon tax in a government I lead."

The dispute there was whether it was a TAX OR a Price ON carbon. Looks like my Posts here are in Invisible Ink. Nev
