The link is on Iemma's proposed tax cuts and abolishment of vendor tax.

What do you think he'll make as Premier? Personally I don't mind Iemma and I think he is going to be quite different from old Bob.

It's too early to say, I just hope he makes the trains run on time.

lol well his moves so far have all been good in my books... the vendor tax was utterly stupid.

Morris, not Boris.

Eh, I reckon it's too early to tell. But in my opinion, all politicians are the same.

What about Peter Garett? That guy is like cool and stuff.

Probally too far to the left. And some of his ideas would absoultely destroy the NSW economy. So not cool.

He is merely an environmentalist. In all other respects he is much like Kevin Rudd (according to reports, that is).

Iemma may bring a new, revitalised image to NSW, however he does not bring a new, revitalised government.... the same old faces still exist...

lol! the economy is retarded.

 

[katie_tully]

Sorry. I meant Morris.

Sorry. I meant Morris.

Do you ever get anything right, my dear?

 

[katie_tully]

Yes. I'm always right.

Well Iemma MUST rid the state of the vendor tax. It is a bad tax that has back fired on the government. Instead of increasing revenue it has decreased it through reduced stamp duty.

 

[absolution*]

hope you are having fun absolution!

whats that supposed to mean?

 

[mr_shittles]

The government should also scrap land tax and payroll tax whilst they are at it and pour a few billion dollars more into the rail network. Since the economy is struggling, it might be the fiscal stimulation that's needed.

I'm pretty dissappointed with the government's performance post-Olympics. The only thing that's keeping these people in office is the opposition.

I saw on TV Brogden saying that Iemma was the choice of the party machine and not the people of NSW. He (Brogden) obviously wasn't chosen by the people (quite the contrary, he was rejected outright) and I'm sure even a machine wouln't be dumb enough to choose him.

 

[supercharged]

I'm not as worried by the vendor tax, its the shithouse rail network that pisses me off.

Lazy, inept, unmotivated, obese train drivers taking sickies, passing out at the controls, failing medical/drug/alcohol checks and leaving Sydney's rail transport system in its chronic third world deathbed.

The State government should fire the lot of them, spend some cash and adopt Singapore's automated Mass Rapid Transit system which is fully computerised and UNMANNED, woohoo NO MORE FUCKING TRAIN DRIVERS!

Firstly, you're generalising.
Secondly, can you imagine dreading coming to work every morning because you know that you could be the fatal part of someone's suicide plan?

If I was dead I wouldn't be worried now would I? I prefer to trains run frequently and on time. Terrorism does not bother me as long as it happens to me. I see my death as instant whereas the trains as a chronic pain that wont go away.

malkin was referring to people stepping in front of trains in order to commit suicide and of the stress and grief that would follow.

Morris Iemma seems like a real worry for the ALP to me. Very quiet....hardly anyone has probably heard of him before the past few days. He just seems to quiet to be a leader/premier, Brogden will eat him alive. I thought up until now the ALP had a better than even chance of winning the next election...now I think they definantly have a less than 50% chance. They really should have gone with Carl Scully.
