Well i agree with jeff kennett and nike 'just do it' break the important promises early in your term so advantages can be seen before next election eg domestic energy policy,GST hmm but states must agree but his suggestion so i wouldn't be surprised if he got it through,agriculture policy. i'll add some payroll tax that taxes business for employing people WT,negative gearing,no records of foreign investment in residential real estate,excessive smsf tax avoidance,excessive trust tax avoidance and definitely a couple more. Seems to me a messy budget causing a lot of concern especially for retirees ,but some should not just blame this govt for the pathetic situation we are in.
ps the US understands the potential of gas to liquids technology (gas to clean diesel ,jet fuel)and are building new technology refineries,chevron understands its obvious potential and are building various mega refineries globally eg obvious one africa and yes new technology so teething problems. So we extract the gas costs $6 to convert to lng for export,then what we import it back as clean diesel and jet fuel.Sorry dopey and thorburn but we need a reality check in our economy so we understand that although we were born with a silver spoon in our mouth the days of entitlement are absolutely over.
