st, do you always just accept what you read, without even thinking about it?

How can jobs be lost due to the carbon tax, when it doesn't even start for a ******* year :D

A year, mate.

Did you hear today about the thousands of new jobs to be created in the mining industry in Queensland?

Interest rates must rise to prevent inflation.

Our economy is booming and "is one of the best-performing of any in the developed world".

If consumer confidence is down it's because the Coalition continue to spew negative spin.

I might have missed it but I can't recall them having said this st.

Can you please provide a link or transcript where Gillard and/or Swan told us there would be no job losses as a result of the carbon tax.

Still waiting, st.

Are you seriously suggesting that quoting the Australian Coal Association is evidence =)) =))

I look forward to you finding that quote from the Prime Minister about no jobs being lost.

Then you quote a shock-jock from 2UE :D :D

Not just any shock-jock, but David Oldfield, ex One Nation and Pauline Hanson's advisor.

Mate, for your own health, get away from these tragics.
