@shagga86 @colonelhogans Ok so you are a climate change denier and hate people with a disability getting a fairer go. Didn't you forget you don't like people who don't have skin the same colour as you?
@BernardKeane Love ya, but I think that statement overplays Albos position. He certainly is not prepared to poke the bear but maybe that is the best tactic with an unpredictable bear?
@kenoath58@mattjcan I disagree. Politicians are not willing to take longer term risks, particularly in the area of taxation reform, when they are facing an electorate in a short period of time. If you want real reform it can only happen if the short cycle is removed.
@kenoath58@mattjcan True to some extent. Blame the short electoral cycle of 3 years. 5 years minimum for true reforms to improve productivity and broaden the tax mix.
@kenoath58@mattjcan No governments work differently. As well as providing g&s that would not be viable for private business, such as universal healthcare, infrastructure etc., fiscal policy is used to counterbalance economic swings to ensure not so many people lose jobs in downswings.
