In reality its simple--the books should be open to public scrutiny(as it is the public money) all wages--pension,perks,free travel,ex-politicians entitlements--should be open for all to see.This would in term --stop the dole b luggers-comments---as when we all see the costs of all ex-politicians--who contribute NOTHING (BOTH SIDES). If someone buys a business they get a section 32 & a look at the financial situation--(we all know they can be doctored). This will never happen as they (both sides) have become experts at selling bullshit.The ex-politicians perks & free travel --will never be exposed---as like the last few weeks--they do not want their names in the PUBLIC domain--so the public can see --which politicians continue to want to shaft us the most--should have been called""PERKS FOR LIFE--A POLITICAL ENTITLEMENT").
