>>54649832Tones had a decent budget.
All cuts, all the time, mostly to foreign aid and faggy cultural spending, also adding a slight amount of personal culpability to medical spending, deregulating uni fees - so arts fags have a disincentive to take useless degrees.
Then he couldn't sell it at all, because he acted like a moron and treated voters like they were morons. After the budget failed, his government just sort of languished and expanded, promising increased military spending (we really don't need proportionally double that of Canada, which was what he promised, at least until the U.S decides to stop bleeding themselves dry protecting their allies <3), metadata retention, increasing prison sentences for non-violent offenders etc.
Turnbull has opened the discussion on finally getting a real nuclear industry going, managed to close on the TPP without totally cucking Australia on the IP sections, and seems to be hesitant on more pork-barrel spending.
Bit scared of his talk about "fostering innovation" since that normally translates to government grants, which really only foster rent-seeking.
>>54650000We're more cucked than Britain in some ways, but at least we aren't on CCTV getting raped by feral slimers. Abbott would have inevitably lost the next election.
Turnbull might not be as anti-immigration as him, but at least we don't get Labor, that wanted to increase spending on African foreign aid, blew the surplus on bullshit Keynesian "stimulus" then proceeded to drive up a massive debt etc.
