Those that voted for a new Government knew that things had to change. Not just cosmetically but physically or fiscally. Yes we are in better shape than many of our fellow Western economies but if we do not change our ways we will have only delayed our demise. The "not in my backyard" philosopy will not help. I don't know about you, but my pockets are nearly empty and I cannot afford any more hands going into them. I can look after myself and help those in my family that need help. Forward planning for our Country and ourselves now is paramount if anyone is to have any sort of future.
