Another election brings another round of promises from politicians trying to win votes, but how many did the last government keep? It’s likely more than you think.

Don't let the Libs or Labor fool you that there's "not enough money".

We could have free school, university, full free healthcare, and more. We could have it tomorrow. The money IS there.

The miners are getting all of the wealth out of the ground and paying $0 tax.

The gas industry are not even paying to get the gas out of the ground, and they pay $0 tax.

The reason?

The Libs and Labor get fat, over paid jobs as 'consultants' with the miners when they leave public office.

This is corruption in Australia. The libs and labor letting their mates take it all for free. Billions worth every year. Then the fat jobs await them.

Put them both last on the ballot. Fire their corrupt asses, and get the public money back from the miners, to fund a healthy and wealthy society.
