    IMO, RWNJs personal identity is comprehensively
    tied into RW/Far RW politics when in fact a mix
    of RW & LW economic strategies to deal with
    political & economic issues facing Aus are apt.

    For example when Abbot was elected in 2013
    the Libs were taken deeper into Neo-Liberalism
    of small Government, low taxes and minimal
    Government interference in business.

    All of that changed with"
    -fires of 2019
    -Covid 2020
    -and now inflation.

    These problems required "socialist" remedies such as Government
    assistance to fire victims, Government Job Seeker/Job Keeper splash
    to businesses and workers , and now petrol & welfare handouts in
    lieu of a spike in the cost of living.

    All these measures are Keynesian (socialist) and implemented by
    a Government that purports to be Right Wing (Remember the Libs got rid of Malcolm because
    they thought he was too "liberal")

    So that leaves the RWNJs like shags on rocks with little or no support from the
    main political parties........How inconvenient...eh?
