And how about the waste of funds telling us on expensive repetitive TV ads explaining to us how great their budget initiative is re giving small business an investment tax depreciation in one hit rather than across several years? Of course, that is not self promotion, no, no, no of course not. It will cause the economy to explode with growth. Won't it???? Pretending it is informing small business of this change because of course they would not know this, no, no no, of course not. So lovely of the government to spend the taxpayers money this way. Hypocritical? Now who would so cynical to believe that???? No-one, of course.
ps I agree with your list of government spending wastage stephenp but wish you hadn't reminded me of them so very effectively. Sorry, I just added another one. Probably only 1,000 more of such proliferate expenditure nonsense could be mentioned by others. I am paying tax and it is by choice because I could avoid it but absolutely don't trust the government and also don't mind paying my way in society. At least I know it is by my choice but absolutely hate even the vaguest suggestion that by keeping within the law that self-funded retirees are worthy of maligning. We deserve much applause and a large segment of us have probably never ever been given a government hand-out in our entire lives and proudly plan our affairs where we never ever every quality or want anything from the welfare state, ever.
