$1.4Bbn investment in "Climate Change"

The Federal Government will give business and households $1.4bn to tackle climate change.
The funding will be raised from the carbon taxes under the ETS.
The ever-wrong Ms Wong said .."this is... to ensure that the monies raised from the scheme are invested back into Australian businesses and Australian households..."

So, Penny's new HAT (hot air tax) will be given back to compensate for it being taken away in the first place??

The Left vs the Looney Left

Larry Buttrose - The Australian 27/11/08.

"No-one could accuse the Left of long sentimental honeymoons. It took less than a fortnight for stories about (Obama) as a possible lackey of the usual overlords."

"A year ago, the shiraz-hued flush of euphoria had hardly subsided from the faces of some of my friends and colleagues before they started denouncing Kevin Rudd."

Why didn't they ask us in the right on the right? We could have set them right in both cases.
(Incidently, what happened to the Chardonay Sipping?)

Rudd, Julia Gillard and their team were the ones who defeated Howard...."

However, they would not have done it without the Looney Left - the Green Party Preferences

Rudd and extreme capitalism

"Rudd has grown attached to his description of the crisis as a result of 'extreme capitalism.'
That's akin to saying the Titanic sank because of extreme sailing. .... The cause of the calamity was bad policy...." says Peter Hartcher in SMH 28/11/08 (Link above)

I say KRudd is a result of extreme egotism.
