What Howard said was that under the coalition interest rates would be lower than under Labour/Green
Now unless you are completely dumb you have to agree with him. As I have said before the scrapping of workplace agreements and getting back to collective bargaining would have caused wage blow out. In turn prices rise and inflation rises. The result is an increase in interest rates. Period.
The election promises will mean nothing, they are controllable.
With control of the senate there will be more industrial relations changes. In three years time the unions will be baying for blood. Now IF the unions still controll the ALP then the so called "Lie / Scare" will be ripe for the plucking again.
The ALP's only hope is to shed the unions control over it and give it back to grass root members.

Business, taxpayers, veterans, environmentalists all have a say..why can't the union membership?
Labor needs to keep the unions a little on-side..you can't be friendless in this world.
