What, in the whole of NSW, a total of four cars!?!.

I don't know, maybe I'm getting all bent and twisted in my old age . Maybe I'm becoming a skeptic of bureaucracy.

When we see senior members of police being accused of corruption. When we see DOCS not do their job and innocent young children lose their lives. When we see Centrelink stop welfare for terminally ill patients. When we see State and Federal governments screw around with funding for hospitals to the extent that surgery waiting lists are growing and folks are dying waiting for a simple surgical procedure.



And all this is happening at a time of wealth, low unemployment, Budget surplus, and....according to our PM, we have never been better off!!!

What the hell is wrong with bureaucracy today . Don't they realize the threat of having their car crushed will cause some young kids to run. What do we have then?....a police pursuit, excessive speeds, innocent civilians at risk!!!.

Sorry to vent, I'll get off my soapbox now...... I just work in an industry where we see just too much government bungling of issues that if happened in private enterprise, would see senior managers held accountable.

I'm with you Rebel.

I don't know how all the other States are managed, but what I do know is that NSW is stuffed. Hospitals - Law and Order - Roads - Transport - everything.

I can't think of one Government area in this State which is managed efficiently and I wouldn't mind betting that the other States in this great Country are the same.

Is it a coincidence that they are all Labour States.

On the other hand, Australia federally is doing quite well. high employment, low inflation, record surpluses.

Over the Liberals term in Government, they paid off a $92 billion debt left by Labour and we are now reaping the benefits.

Do we want the next Federal Government to be as inefficent as our present State Governments. Do we want Unions controlling our work places. Do we want record interest rates and record debt AGAIN! I for one don't.

I agree with the philophosy of "If it's not broken, leave it alone."

I've said enough and I'm not telling you who I'm voting for on 24.11.
