This is the result of Tony Abbott favouring corporations (increased prices/costs) and constantly assailing unions and average Aussie workers (stagnant wages); his latest outrageous attack is to remove penalty rates for Sunday workers who depend on these rates to make a living wage. This outcome is the stark Abbott reality, not the pre-election LIES of growth, increased jobs and improved living standards and opportunity for all Aussies. This is what happens when Aussies allow themselves to be duped by Murdoch propaganda and his puppet PM appointee.
Well, choke on it Australia, as you deserve all the callous and unfair treatment that Abbott and his conservatives dish out. No-one has taken Abbott to task for fraudulently stealing the highest office in the land, with Murdoch’s help, so who’s to blame, the PEOPLE of course, as Abbott was and is a known lying and duplicitous quantity.
One has to marvel at the way elite bankers, economists and Murdoch journalists express the lowest ‘growth’ in wages for 17 years, here’s a quote from The Australian, “Flat incomes meant Australia was winning back the international competitiveness it lost during a recent mining investment boom …” So there you have it, you’re not falling behind miserably as living costs soar and wages remain stagnant -- while your penalty rates are now under siege -- you’re “WINNING,” Australia, according to the convoluted Alice in Wonderland mentality of out of touch elitists, which Abbott unquestionably serves, Abbott is nothing if not an obedient errand boy for the corporate and banker elite.
Now think, if the above quote were remotely accurate then we should have seen a huge increase in exports and associated jobs growth but the REALITY is unemployment is increasing at an alarming rate, so it’s all a croc, as Abbott pursues the elite agenda of AUSTERITY for the masses and opulence and a free ride for the elite and well heeled; the big end of town, which specialises in raping national wealth, have never had it so good for so long, while the MAJORITY are about to have shit sandwiches served for breakfast, lunch and tea, so take a good look at yourselves while you’re shaving or applying makeup, you born Aussie losers.
And do not look for union support as their leaders are also in the pockets of big business, isn’t that true, Mr Shorten? If you desire fair living standards STRIKE until you restore traditional Aussie living conditions, but of course modern generations are far too timid for EFFECTIVE industrial action, which historically achieved the fairest living standards in the world. So enjoy the next phase of IMPOSED austerity, lies and getting screwed by UNREPRESENTATIVE puppet politicians, you miserable, gutless slaves -- shit sandwich, anyone?
