so wait your against deficit spending? Anti government malinvestment?
There is no problem with the budget Abbott and Hockey will fix it with their 50 to 70bil black hole promises.
Government securities outstanding as at the end of June/July/Aug was $234.0/234.3/245.3bn respectively.What the hell did they blow almost $300 billion on?
Gillard delivers school funding plan
Prime Minister Julia Gillard has delivered her response to the Gonski review into school funding, announcing a plan to put Australia in the world's top five schooling systems by 2025
What will be finished first ?
Gonski or the NBN ?
+1. If we could just turn out children who can spell, put a sentence together and do a reasonable amount of mental arithmetic, that would be a considerable improvement.Heard Gillard wittering on about this on radio at lunchtime. I might be the only one that thinks this but IMO education dollars should be spent on the basics (ensuting everyone is literate and numerate). Despite a university degree I have learn more since I finished my formal education through self education and life experiences and a lot of what I learnt at Uni I now realise was leftist propganda anyway. When Gillard talks about a' good education' I can't help feeling she really means an opportunity to create a new generation of Labor voters.
AUSTRALIAN stayed away from department stores in droves in July, precipitating a shock slump in retail sales that suggest government handouts were mainly responsible for the recent shopping splurge.
While economists expected the pace of retail sales growth to slow in July, they actually slumped 0.8 per cent to $21.4 billion, dragged down by a 10.2 per cent collapse in sales at department stores.

PS I love the expression 'wittering on'. Haven't heard it for ages.
Now it's an education "Crusade". An odd term for an atheist. I liked the way Leigh Sales took her apart on 7.30 tonight. She cut through all the bullshit and exposed Gillard for the fake that she is. I doubt that Gillard will be back. She looked very annoyed.
Good to know you're not entirely convinced Leigh Sales is only tough on Mr Abbott.Now it's an education "Crusade". An odd term for an atheist.
