Morrison: NO REVENUE problem, WHAT!

New conservative treasurer, Scott ‘clueless’ Morrison, displayed his thorough ignorance on economic matters by stating plainly on the ABC 7.30 program that “we do not have a revenue problem we have an expenditure problem,” when statistics CLEARLY indicate WE have BOTH!

Furthermore, bereft of knowledge and knowhow, Morrison resorted to verbal brute force tactics with interviewer Leigh Sales, who usually holds her ground but failed on this important occasion. Morrison, clearly panic stricken, ‘bulldozed’ Sales with unceasing verbiage, obfuscation and irrelevancies, he even assumed he knew what the Australian people wanted and then spouted more irrelevancies -- so let’s make it clear, to disconnected, elitist conservatives so they UNDERSTAND! The Australian people want financial pain relief in the form of increased wages, which have remained stagnant over the past five years while prices and living costs have soared.

The first approach should therefore be to remove Abbott’s harsh financial policies/attacks on average citizens, the young (students) and vulnerable pensioners -- Abbott was attempting to make up revenue shortfalls created by tax-avoiding multi-nationals, banks and large corporations by targeting the ‘have nots’ rather than the ‘haves, his elitist friends,’ and we all know where that got him! Immediate wage increases are imperative so people -- the engine of the economy -- are able to recover from their conservative imposed financial hardships -- THAT’S WHAT AUSSIES WANT, MORRISON, you clueless, inept, insensitive clown! Are you reading this Turnbull, without relief for the people you’re headed for sure defeat as the nation is sick and tired of more of the same TRANSPARENT obfuscation and bullshit from clearly INCOMPETENT conservatives? You were warned about Morrison but you failed to display good sense and backbone, much to your great personal political cost.

Sales, to her research department’s credit, then hit Morrison with some hard facts, about this governments appalling failures in comparison to the previous government, especially unemployment and growth, Morrison wriggled and avoided confronting the hard reality with more tissue thin lies and diversions -- tragic, not only for Turnbull and his politically appointed dunce treasurer, but for long suffering Aussies and the entire nation.

If you wish to survive Mr Turnbull, wage reform and tax reform should start TODAY, haven’t you learned that PEOPLE spend broadly on the overall economy, however, corporations and banks hog and spend only on themselves? Dispatching you will be easier than first thought, and we take no pleasure in it -- all Australians would much rather have competent, realistic, HONEST government.
