Robb, has failed to read, or does not believe, any RBA reports, because he still continually claims Australia is a sovereign risk! <br /><br />Meanwhile, the Member for Warringah (the Leader of the Opposition) asked the Prime Minister the following supplementary question in the House of Representatives (my emphasis):<br /><br />“In what year will Labor's run of deficits finally end, given that the global financial crisis actually ended almost four years ago?”<br /><br />(Hansard, Wednesday, 20 March, 2013)<br /><br />Next day, the same Member said in the House of Representatives:<br /><br />“We know that these are difficult times for our country. There is a continuing economic crisis in much of Europe.”<br /><br />(Hansard, Thursday, 21 March, 2013)<br /><br />So, according to the Member for Warringah, there is not a continuing economic crisis and there is a continuing economic crisis! <br />Exactly which economic crisis does the Opposition think is continuing in Europe?<br />Or does the Member for Warringah think that Europe is not part of the globe and that the crisis is over for the USA and the global financial world? His economics degree has proved invaluable. What a great leader he will make; he is a decisive politician, consistent in his theories!<br /><br />The Coalition are reminiscent of “The Dreamfixer” in an episode of “Hustle” (shown on ABC1). The Coalition's amorphous economic policy and its nebulous statements are similar, promising to satisfy just about everyone's dreams. Beware the dictum of the “Dreamfixer”, espoused when he left his supporter with nothing: “The scenery only changes for the lead dog.”VoterBentleighnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8434369190746987531.post-43117088986268283262013-04-03T09:36:00.351+11:002013-04-03T09:36:00.351+11:00but but but but...aren't interest rates always...but but but but...aren't interest rates always going to be lower under a liberal government??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
