Australia’s economy has gone from close to the worst-managed in the OECD, according to data from the IMF, the UBS, the World Bank, the OECD, Trading Economics and elsewhere, to near the top today.

The ABC’s unawareness of these major shifts is an indictment of its inability to monitor critical data.

  Labor may be shit lite, but at least they aren’t extra-strength shit like the Libs and Nats.

  But it sounds like, as the Democrats in America, they have trouble bringing attention to their successes?

    Nah they forget they’re the left of centre party and are handing a win to libs because of it.
    
    Outlawed vapes
    
    Legalised vapes again but now you need a prescription and can only buy from pharmacies (gotta wring them tax dollars)
    
    Snuck in change to TGA to also outlaw dry herbs vapes and schedule cannabis on the same level as morphine
    
    Have done fuck all about housing or inflation
    
    During a cost of living crisis, Centrelink (welfare) is still unliveable
    
    Focused making NDIS more “financially stable”
    
    Went ahead with a costly referendum that trashed relations with indigenous Australian
    
    The under 16 ban for social media (while I agree with it) was poorly planned, rushed and handed Libs easy sound bites
    
    Feels like labour is now lib lite, pissing off their own voters as well as lib voters for not doing enough.

    “Why do none of these capitalist businesses want to talk about how less rampant capitalism is better for the common man?”

I have a lot of bones to pick with this gov but their investment in public works/the public service are markedly better than the last 9 years of straight up looting the country.
