It's a no win scenario for the conservative government, all the viable solutions are social, at least whatever happens should have no excuses for being too slow! So you get turds like Andrew Bolt labeling Scomo a Marxist, a lot of Marxist rubbish being floated around!I wouldn't call my self a Scomo booster, in fact far from it, but he's doing as good of a job as can be expected, there is no road-map for this situation and it's like balancing a ball bearing on a pin! However, I think Frydenberg might be a bit of a dead weight, he's looking more chook as each day passes, but who can blame him! Quote Selected Last Edit: March 30, 2020, 05:14:37 pm by LP

Perhaps an important lesson for capitalism, it needs healthy humans, en masse, to operate effectively. Greater investment in health, or perhaps fast tracking robots? Quote Selected

Yep, a real head-scratcher. Does it say that Scottie from Marketing has little or no confidence in his elected team to handle all of this C-19 stuff? Does it say that he realises his own limitations? Maybe it was an opportunity for all parties to work together? Dan and Scottie seem to have been working well together/supporting each other... at least publicly. Quote Selected

Re: CV and mad panic behaviour Reply #448 – March 31, 2020, 01:22:40 pm I think Scomo is doing the best we can hope for, especially given his political roots and the circumstances.Doubt that kid down the road will get a loan, at least not from a reputable lender, so he might want to be very careful what he wishes for as the dogs will profit from his ultimate demise!There is no win in these circumstances, only varying degrees of losing!Of course, some people might be so dumb they don't know they are losing, wait until inflation kicks in!
