() Does anybody really think that they will achieve the surplus? All I hear is a faint promise from those who have a track record and not delivering. Can we stop focussing on the distraction tatics that labour is using to get the our mind off their poor decision making, A small cash payment will be spent mostly on TVs and smokes, while the real pain is yet to come. I read an article lately that highlighted tthe move of pople form Australia to overseas, while the people coming on boats conitue to arrive. The money spent is being wasted and we are being offered lollipops to keep us happy...give me a break?
