Bill's spend, spend & spend

Yes! please do! even if not Libs, one less labor is acceptable

 

I’ve said many times that maybe we would benefit in the long term if we handed the joint to independents and put a broom through both major parties, ridding them both of those bloody factions

 

I have never voted Labor ... and have traditionally been a LNP supporter ... but LNP are "on the nose" on so many levels that I am confused on who to vote for.

 

No party is perfect and I agree LNP have done some dumb ****...

But do you seriously identify with labor's fundamental ideology?

That's why I'll never vote labor.

No I lie. If I was forced with a gun to my head to choose labor or Greens, I'd happily vote labor.

 

Labor proposes raising compensation cap for bank misconduct victims to $2m

Quote..
Consumers and small businesses would be eligible for up to $2 million in compensation — up from $500,000 for consumers and $1 million for small businesses.

Just when investors are starting to flow back into the Banks ,another spanner is thrown into the mix..

 

Sportsbet has Labor $1.25 to Liberal $3.50

Pretty much written off in their eyes.

 

Nope - that's the confusion. Can't vote Labor as don't agree with their fundamentals - traditional LNP voter but cannot bring myself to vote for the toxic current party - Green's are communist in disguise ... all parties have segments I agree with, but the basics of all are noxious.

No decent independents in my neck of the woods and don't want to run the risk of some minor 16 vote weirdo getting in due to preferences ...

 

Sadly going by the odds it does not look good,and most times Sportsbet is right..

 

was like 1.10 to 8 a few weeks ago...

 

Well, someone has been whispering in BS pink ear and we are now going to have an Australian Shipping line, seem to remember the last one collapsed because labour from other countries was much cheaper, I think the same circumstances still exist ...

 

Bugger. I'll have to agree with this statement too.

 

C'mon now @euro73 there are two sides to the ledger, why is it the only way governments seek to balance the books is on the revenue side? How much bloated beurocracy is ripe for trimming in Canberra? How much did that royal commision set us back again?

 

Franking credits seem to be the most misunderstood concept in the lead up to the election, perhaps even a general lack of understanding of what a shareholder is.

I am a shareholder. I am a part owner of a company. My company has paid the government 30% of its profits as tax. If my marginal rate is under 30c in the dollar I should have every right to have some or all of that payment refunded.

Now there may be arguments about the level of taxation on superannuation in general, and to me there are clearly some more appropriate sources of tax revenue that are just too unpopular to get through (cough)...ppor exempt from pension asset testing...(cough) but to me the franking credit system seems fine as is.

 

Hey you mob. I get to vote for Peter Dutton or get to vote him out..........
