 I 'll bite. I can't vote Liberal/ National party because they are going to Impliment the Welfare/ Basic card to all welfare clients in 2020-21, and it is not fair to people saying all welfare recipients do not budget properly on their money. It is also saying people ( adults) are not entitled to have the occassional  beer , flutter on the lotto or even have a smoke. When clearly the rest of the population will be allowed to do these things. And I cannot vote Labor as they are Pro China's involvement in our affairs. Pro China's annexing of the South China seas and illegally  taking  rights to ownership of other country's  sea areas, including other country's oil, gas and mineral rights. Labor is pro communism and pro socialism .  So who else is available to vote for that wont give preferences to  to  these parties and/or have the ability to form government themselves. That is my Vent!

Maybe form your own party Ricrat  8-)

But really though, Australian politics arn't in the best place atm. Its all self interest rather then trying to make the country better!

Since I am an Engineer, not trying to be bias but, I think we need more engineers to decide on future projects and how it should be done, and not have business politics try to short cut everything to save money on the short term, and costing the country on the long term. A country like Japan or Germany which have great engineering companies that always invest for the long terms. Siemens is a great example

Those companies have so much control over the government due to the unions (which isn't a bad thing)
