Do you believe that regulating the workplace and increasing penalty rates increases employment?
No. It does, however, restore fairness to those that do have jobs, rather than relying on employer goodwill
Case in point- proposing to give business tax relief (via a payroll tax holiday) and relying on them to use the money to retain jobs, instead of adding it to their bottom line! Just fantasy.
By splurging all of this money and adding to our debt enormously, Mr Rudd has actually worsened the situation
Please explain how not spending money creates/retains jobs. In fact, there is not much at all that is correct about Howards' statement, P-A-F.
