Swan, the numpty, channels a singer who sings about the poor put-upon people of New Jersey who never stood a chance of improving their lot. And then compares it to Australia and what will happen here if three rich miners get their wicked way.
Now the singer Bruce Springsteen is worth conservatively over $200M and his earnings in 2010 alone were around $70M.
After chastisement and ridicule from the existing New Jersey Governor. Swan's office makes it clear he was talking about 1970s New Jersey not the current time.
Well looking at New Jersey in the 1970s it had a Democrat Governor and Democrats controlled the senate and Assembly.
New Jersey was renowned for having the highest taxes, greatest regulation and the biggest spending. This sounds remarkably similar to the template Swan and Gillard are following here so why would he bag out New Jersey when he is trying his utmost to replicate it?
The Democrat Governor also got in on the promise of not introducing an income tax and then promptly imposed one once elected! New Jersey is the perfect role model for this Government!
