So tax payers can’t afford to fund the lifestyle choices that some Australians are making…

I’ve rewritten this about four times now and it still doesn’t convey what I’m thinking very well so I’m stripping this log post back to basics (another favourite saying of the government).

On the one hand our government says that we can’t afford to pay for the ‘lifestyle choices’ that means people can remain connected to the land their ancestors have lived on for tens of thousands of years… on the other hand our government is volunteering to pay for the ‘lifestyle choices’ of two convicted drug smugglers. Go figure.

Julie Bishop… offering to pay for Bali nine prison costs

Words fail me.
