Yes, you did, "bro". Oh, and it's square; thinking outside the square, or box - not circle.
Did I ever say I was outside Australia at this point in time? And yes most developed nations are throwing money left right and centre into the abyss. Try thinking outside the circle bro.
Exactly what I've done. Left this **** hole of a country that I used to love and call my home.
Definitely some truth in what he says, but on the other hand, his business would be nothing, zero, zilch, without the 2,200,000 people per year he services. Without them he wouldn't have the ability to make the profit that makes him liable to pay $220,000 in tax.
Bunyip

shaunQ, why blame Howard when it was happening all over the world?

lol so you are stalking my movements right? Get a life loser
I think you'll find that a near identical approach has been adopted world wide. Individuals in the US have received stimulus cheques as well, and it wouldn't shock me as to see them receiving more.
Bunyip, depending on what your business is - I would have thought it would have experienced a boost after a stimulus? I would be fairly certain that many small retailers would have felt it last time. Perhaps your business is in something entirely different though.
I guess Xenophon, and Fielding have some good points hereXenophon questions stimulus focus

Key senators are continuing to question the spending targets outlined in the Federal Government's economic rescue plan.
The Government needs the support of the cross bench senators to get its $42 billion spending package through the Parliament.
Already the Family First Senator Steve Fielding has called for more money for the unemployed.
The Greens want to make sure new public housing is energy efficient.
Independent Senator Nick Xenophon says there may be a better way of spending the money.
"When you have a number of leading commentators saying that we should be looking at fixing at the Murray Darling Basin for instance, spending the money on fundamental infrastructure that will improve productive capacity in the economy," he said.
"That's the sort of thing that needs to be considered."
Senator Xenophon is also wondering why rich private schools are getting millions of dollars.
"The need can't be shown on any objective basis," he said.
Whenever I read about the Senator I can't help but think of that great movie
'The Warriors'
Rudd may be duplicating an approach that's been adopted world-wide, but that doesn't mean it's the correct approach. Rudd and his cronies don't have business brains.
In fact the more I see of them, the more I doubt they have any kind of brains at all.
Knocker - I would love to know where you now live and how it is so much better than Aus? Every country has its own problems, and all the 'Western' countries seem to be having the same problems right now. Can you honestly tell me you dont live in a Western country?
Nyden - RE schools, i would think that they get money on a per capita basis. IE a school with 200 kids gets 4 times a school with 50 kids. Perhaps thats too logical for the gov though...
That letter is a good example of why i never want to own my own business that employs people. I have seen my old man do it and it looks too much hard work for me
The stimulus package will give mostly only a short term boost to business.
I would have thought there are dozens of projects that the money could be better spent on.....projects that would not only provide short term stimulus, but also longer term revenue generation and jobs for decades to come.

Then why do you care? Oh, I see that you havent left Australia then. Well, I'm confusen!Exactly what I've done. Left this **** hole of a country that I used to love and call my home.
At least my taxes won't be paying for it anymore.
There is a terrible story in the Advertiser (SA paper) showing how this money is being directed to scum bags. Some of you might remember last year the story in SA where three people were arrested for child neglect and cruelty to 16 children living in 1 home. Several kids were in hospital for months. The woman arrested was also about to give birth to another. Oh yeah, the Housing Trust House they trashed took weeks to clean up. The RSPCA seized the animals that were rotting there, yet the child welfate took an extra 3 days or so to take the children into care. So they are getting a nice clean new one.
Well, it seems that not only did she get the baby bonus of $5000 payable in instalments, but under Rudd's plan they will get $30,000!
She should get nothing, simply because child services should take her children away. 16 people per one house should be illegal, simple as that. Lack of privacy can be emotionally damaging.
