sl74, why is that when jobs are created it is not Howard's doing but when petrol prices go up due to world oil prices-that is Howards fault. When interest rates go up-that is Howards fault.
The good goes with the bad. If petrol & interest rates are Howards fault so must then the falling unemployment rate.
As regards part time / full time work, part time is the chosen way by many workers. This flexibility is what Howard has worked hard for. So mothers can re-enter the work force and still care for the kids as well. You need to look objectively at things and not through labor's dillusion glasses!!!
