Ditch em for racepace modded stockies

Is it a 2.8? (sorry memory fails me)

Not yet, but if I can be arsed forking out for the crank it will be

[Miguelone]

Labors was way more juicy. For extra lols they brought back the guy they axed in the first place

Abbott might not be ideal but the public need to wake up to the need for budget cuts or we gonna end up like Greece. Heck Id take a labor gov provided they take some action to reverse the debt trend - but we know that'll never happen they are like women - spenders

Something something Turnbull likely.. something something fighter jets. Who's asleep?

This is the problem with younger generations they don't actually see the importance of who and how the country is run..

I blame the education system.

[Miguelone]

Really? You're gonna go with that? Alrighty then.

^^ wasn't pickin on ya man just a generic statement and it's sadly quite accurate young people have no idea about politics God half of them think when the government pays its like its the governments own money as if it's a income generating business not the people's money

If Turnbull gets back in it's practically the same scenario... remember he WAS pushed out by Abbot. Albeit in opposition but it's errily similar.

What really f**ks me off is that at half a mill a year we will most likely be paying for 4 pm's that either weren't voted in or were ditched. That's $2m a year for life for a bunch of flogs that couldn't lead their way out of a wet paper bag.

Also you do realise that the whole budget surplus thing is not actually as important as it is made out to be by the LNP right? It's mostly just their current election strategy. Sure it's preferable but all it really means is our projected spend is less than our projected income. Even surplus budgets when actioned can still leave the country in debt and often do not actually result in cessation of borrowing, (especially when we buy EXTRA shiny fighter jets)

What really matters is that we see infrastructure projects implemented, economic growth driven and those that need it helped while working towards a balanced budget in the future (when the economy is better positioned.)

There is NO need to have it sorted by 2018, other than for the purposes of re-election.

What we need is a very centre right government. Unfortunately that is just not an option at ptesent.

so went to refuel car on freeway.

fire brigrade blocking road.

seems some tourists in their rental van put diesel in instead of petrol, so on exit to station at freeway,

just out and think lets drain the tank that will fix it, 100 Litres of diesel all over the road...

van still stranded on on-ramp to freeway as well.

The jets thing is a lefty go to option to pick on libs the fact is they were allocated for like a decade ago.. And national security isn't a bad idea imo.

you can't deny we are living in the age of entitlement and welfare and its completely unsustainable in its present state and set to only worsen.

budget may not need fixing in the next two years but action needs taking now not when we are further down the drain with no way out

The jets were budgeted for years ago and both parties were committed... but then we went and ordered 58 more.... it's a LOT of money that could have been better appropriated.

Yes it's an age of entitlement, no one can doubt that, but we need to have welfare, it's simply not avoidable

I agree we need to look into fixing the budget, but the approach has been deplorable and has also all but guaranteed a Labor government will return very shortly.

I liked Hamish better when he wasn't all banky

You used to be about the music

Australia is doomed anyways.

Iron ore has dropped to $60/tonne from $180/tonne highs

http://www.dailyreckoning.com.au/category/resources/metals-minerals/iron-ore-1/

Once a $30billion revenue stream for Australia has been wiped.

Buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy ride.

Dezz and Tony can lend us some money

The policy's to fix the budget have t been that bad.. Students should pay interest on hecs loans the loop holes and outstanding balance is ridiculous

Paying $7 to see a doctor? No problem with that either

Despite what labor and the greens want us to believe there simply isn't enough rich people / corporations to slug more taxes on to cover the bill. Middle & low income will always feel the pinch as they are the most dependent and largest tax base and as much as they whinge figures showed after rebates / deductions they were taking out more than they put in...

After driving home tonight I can't help but feel..

[Rekin]

Alex what suburbs you look after?

Paying $7 to see a doctor? No problem with that either

unless you have a healthcare card/pension card then yes you should be paying this.

still some of the cheapest health care in the world.

[Birds]

Pretty sure students do pay interest on hecs/help loans; well they index it against inflation, that's for sure.

ok this is getting out of control..

think we should put him down for his own good:
