The fact is that neither Freuedenberg in his Budget speech, nor Albo tonight uttered even one word about addressing and paying down our $1 Trillion debt that was kick started by the Rudd/Bowen duo and has been kicked down the road by every government since.

I genuinely fear for the future of my children and your children with this cavalier attitude. It seems that post-Covid the populace has become accustomed to government largesse and both sides believe that attitude will continue going forward. Collective rationalism may be a thing of the past. Where we needed a Costello, instead we have two sides trying to outdo each other in the drunken sailor stakes.

Poor fellow my country.

You seem to have forgotten about Abbott and Hockey abandoning their tough budget because of a bit of poor feedback.

In fact, didn't Hockey raise the deficit limit ?
