Also, the SMH is ALP propaganda.Sarah168 said:It all begins to make sense now...
So then, why at the last state "mini-budget" did education rise? One would assume that the Commonwealth would set a minimum, but hey...I haven't read the constitution.Asquithian said:its a concurrent power doofus
the federal governments grants money to the states to spend on their 'terms and conditions' ...in relaity the federal government controls education spending...
if your not sure look atsection 96 of the Australian Constiutution
At the "mini-budget" spending on education went up...although the Carr was saying we were broke.Asquithian said:edudation spending rise? What went up...ull have to clarify...
I'm just asking why did it go up? Did the Commonwealth force us to increase it when we were "broke"???Asquithian said:whats your point ?
Don't you think saying sorry is the least we can do to recognise their suffering? And as for when 'they' do that sort of thing. The entire aboriginal race does not live in redfern and the entire race should then not be condemned or disallowed an apology for a past of violence and awful brutality due to an act of stupidity from a portion of Aboriginals isolated to Redfern.tWiStEdD said:I have no time for him.
His attempts at pushing left-wing reform are not going to go anywhere.
On this point, why should we say sorry for things we had no part in and we make obvious that we condemn today?
I suppose the only alternative to doing nothing is saying sorry, bulldozing over 300 years of development, and letting them have their way of life back?
Aboriginals confuse me.... the fact that certain groups demand apologies insults me. The whole Redfern thing was disguisting in my eyes, its no wonder we dont cave to their demands when they do that sorta thing!
that's my 2 cents.
