Who the fuck voted for these clowns... Everyone I seem to meet reckons that they hate her and never voted for Labour. I know they are a minority Gov, but a fair portion of the public were behind this commie rabble. If you did vote for them, own up, be proud and take ownership over the Shit pile you created.
Fuck working hard to make headway, let’s all become parasites to society and benefit from the Gov.

End of rant.

Most people don't realise they voted for them. Preferential votes means the person with the most popularity doesn't necessarily win. So everyone who voted for a minor player, should have looked where the preference was going.

Sadly that's most likely true Kato ...

Isn't it Tasmania that has "first past the post" state elections. Not so backward as we thought perhaps.

I agree Kato, but a lot of those preferential votes were from the Greens, which makes it even worse.

Voters don't create the mess. Voters get burned by placing confidence in certain leaders to do the right thing for the majority of the population. Just because a voter prefers a party/individual, it doesn't mean they support every decision they ever make. It means they put faith in that party's policies at the time of voting, above those of the other. Plenty changes afterwards unfortunately.

Do you really think that your life would be any better or any less affected if the openly conservative, Religious-nutter Abbott was in power? If you do think so, you're deluded. No matter what party is in power, there will always be decisions made and policy suggestions put forward that anger BOTH supporters and non-supporters alike. Different decisions would be made and different aspects of your life would be affected.

My life, my family, my job, my health, my income are vastly different from yours and millions of others so naturally I am going to vote for what is (hopefully) going to be in my best interests, and you and everyone else does exactly the same. We're all "selfish voters"... except the bleeding hearts of society or so they'd lead you to believe.

Blaming voters for the choices made by the Government in power is naive and silly.

We all need to stop voting and stop paying taxes - until we take responsibility for our own existence this shit is going to get worse. Unfortunately everyone is scared of the consequences of telling the government to fuck off. So suck it up bitches and just take whatever they have in store for you.

I have never fucking ever voted for the socialist party (ALP) nor will I ever.
I would stand behind Tony Abbott any day of the week before I ever believed what the Welsh Witch and her faceless men offer. You truly reap what you sow when it comes to politics in this country.
