Well it's a standard practice to blame past governments. It's easier to point fingers than to accept that it's your fault.

You know blaming the former govt is standard fare. The sheer amount of middle-class welfare in this country beggars belief. Very hard to cut that during a boom however. I think while 'it's all Howard's fault' will be viewed wryly I think most Australians realise that the budget is in serious deficit and that such excesses need to be trimmed. The fact that someone on $149k/pa can still receive a regular welfare payment is just – dare I say it? – unAustralian. They'll just have to do it tough for the next few years for the good of the country. I'm sure they'll understand.

I think The best way to fight a bad idea is to propose a better alternative, and the SEIU California State Council has delivered. Thanks to share it.
