Just an observation - It's funny how throughout the campaign the Greens and Labor ridiculed media outlets stating that News Corp is worthless rubbish, yet the other publications get their tick of approval. The other parties don't dictate which media outlets are the most appropriate news source. It's such a socialist thing to dictate which media is appropriate for news. If Labor and Greens are heading in that direction as per above? Australia will turn into a socialist totalitarian regime. People should be able to choose their media outlet without Political interference.
The thing is though News Ltd (especially newspapers like The Daily Telegraph in Sydney), does tend to take the right wing view in their reporting. Heck, they even have people like Miranda Devine and Andrew Bolt, two well known right wingers.
The ALP isn't after a socialist totalitarian type state, just wanting to get a bit more equity for those people who are struggilng (like the disabled, unemployed, etc) - and to do that you have to spend $$ to create equity, which means taxes.
I know with myself living with a chronic life threatening medical condition, I often question why I need to live below the poverty line when I'm spending everyday attempting to keep myself alive (I get the DSP).
