I suggest you have a look at this table, especially 22% 8-Apr-1982

I've no idea where the Dr quoted from the Australian came up with these 7odd % figures. It does not seem correct.

I'm not sure if your aware but from mid 1993 the RBA's via its monetary policy adjusted interest rates to target inflation in the 2-3% band.

Don't you think that has been a significant contributor towards "the economic prosperity and welfare of the people of Australia" ?

Remember the RBA's monetary policy operates independant of who is in Government.

You seem to be very confused with money market interest rates and lending interest rates.

No point entering a discussion here.

i cant afford a house, wife or kids but im cool with that :P

interests rate rises are going to happen under rudd or howard, so bite the bullet dudes and dudettes

I find it 'curious' that on one hand the Coalition goes on about how irrelevant unions are, then on the other hand credits them with the power to take over the country.
Howard can't really fight on interest rates or phony national security issues this times, but he will try one more time to pull the wool over our eyes. So he is using the unions as the bogey man this time. The benefits that we take for granted were gained through union negotiation....4 weeks annual holidays....sick leave provision....long service leave...etc. If anyone out there dosen't want these benefits then hand them in as you vote for the Libs/Nats.


Time to consider who pulls Howard (and the Liberal Parties) strings? big business intent on serfdom for their employees and lunatic religious groups. I know who I would prefer to have the influence. Lol.

We have a housing affordability crisis right now and what's Howard's response? PUT DOWNWARD PRESSURE on our wages! What a ripsnorter..You beaut that's really going to help me buy my first home. A LUCKY country?

Regardless of which side of the fence you're on, I thought the worm guage was irrelevant. Is not the whole point of a debate to make your own mind up? Not look at a guage and see who's aparently winning so you can barrack for the leader?
I cannot believe it was a fair representation of the content of the debate anyway, as someone already said, the guage shot to full + before Rudd had said anything. At one point he twice avoided a direct question on climate change forecasts with transparent swerving while the worm looked ready to bust right out the top of the guage! Maybe the audience was stacked? Maybe the worm was rigged who knows. I thought it was uncanny that they happened to have a camera ready to capture the moment the 'live feed' dropped out. Or was that a re-enactment to make the viewers think that it was a Liberal party conspiracy?

Funny how people blame the government for not being able to afford things in life.
Your damn right this is a lucky country...as id be more than happy to see how many of you manage to purchase a house in another country with the same benifits and lifestyle attached to it.
People in china and the like have over 3 generations paying off their houses...and do you think they manage to have a backyard big enough to kick the footy with their kids.
Heres the thing... many people have the opportunity to get a job earning BIG $$ that make affording a house quite simple. BUT, the same people cant be farked to get off their asses and work away because they want their lifestyle they currently have. Have your cake and eat it too? No not likely, but if you want something then go get it....dont put the blame on other people or the government because your too tired to actually do something.

Aussies are lazy as fark! They complain about people coming in from overseas and taking their jobs...when infact..the jobs have always been there, we're just too much of a lazy bunch! Why do people migrate from overseas to the 'lucky country' ?? Because what we have here is pretty amazing and you can make a great life with so much freedom as opposed to other countries.

So, instead of people blaming the government for things... how about taking responsibilty for your actions and making your own difference.....oh thats right, its australia...the home of the "give me benefits as im to much of a lazy farker to get it myself"
