The idiot we call a treasurer has just tried to buy votes with the handouts to families.
The idea of super was that people would become self-sufficient in retirement.
Us 'mature' people were hammered in the GFC and again now with the international uncertainty and need all the help we can get to build up super again - so what does the guy do; he stops us putting money into super for the long-term and is trying to buy a vote short-term.
Labour is out at the next election - should they be allowed to introduce the mining and carbon tax that have now put Australia on "unstable" watch for investors?
End of rant - I just can't believe what we allow these idiots to get away with - especially when their super contributions from their employer (ie US TAXPAYERS) is 15%
