It amazes me how ingracious middle class Australians have become.
Europe & America are sinking in the wake of generations motivated by greed, while we cling to a raft of fortunate flotsam.
With our ipads, ipods, iphones, imacs, iwant more, potato chips, soft drinks, chocolate bars, cigarettes, fine wine, boutique beers, lattes, 64″ TV screens, 6 mt spas with a bedroom at one end, pensions, superannuation ( $1million is not enough nowadays apparently ), sick leave, holiday pay, caravans, BBQs, garage sales, speed boats, swimming pool, pedigree dogs, private health insurance, 3 bathroom house, investment property, etc etc … and I listen to some indignant Baby Boomer whinging about how – “It’s not like the old days.” or ” Bloody politicians are ruining this country.”
If anyone honestly believes that a vote for Abbott can change anything for the better, then they are delusional.
In reality, the Government of the day is actually responsible for only a fraction of our perceived problems.
It’s probably time we took some responsibility for our own lives, instead of undermining our attempts to be happy by overrating the Government .
Let’s all have another vile, fat-saturated McDonald’s Unhappy Meal and then complain about the overloaded public health system.
