Do as many service, legislative tax cuts, tax increases and funding cuts etc. as fast as possible to keep the public off balance with just too many issues to deal with properly. Meanwhile do what they bloody well please. It is the reason California and so many other States are about to go 'bankrupt.' It is a return to the '20 and '30 eras of economic suicide for the poor and wealth for the robber barons. Why else are the pols and aides in Victoria taking $100,000 raises?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242439673360261416.post-23851877542014787662009-10-23T14:15:20.544-07:002009-10-23T14:15:20.544-07:00David,
How dishonest and misleading can this gove...David,<br /><br />How dishonest and misleading can this government get without arousing the wrath of the general population? Apparently a lot worse. I can't fathom why so many of us are tolerating cuts like the ones you have described today and not connecting it with decisions like the obscene provision of tickets to the Olympic games for politicians and crown corporations. And then to call it "revenue" to ensure that the inevitable deficit these games will incur is <br />minimized is scandalous.<br /><br />It was reported that 30% of the Olympic tickets were reserved for the general public. How generous. Are we to believe that the taxpayers are only responsible for 30% of the expenditures? Oh yeah, I forgot that this circus was for the benefit of corporations and we will all benefit from trickle-down economics. Add that one to the "The cheque's in the mail" BS.<br /><br />Shame on you Campbell and your followers. When you eventually succumb to terminal analitis, try to find someone to take care of you.Dave C.noreply@blogger.com
