Comments on Arthur Sinodinos “PM may regret a spend now, pay later strategy”, 23/07/2009, http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,25821434-5017272,00.html
Reform the election system and have a fixed term election please!
The flexibility of PM in choosing the election time to suit one’s own political purpose is a mockery of Australian’s modern democratic system.
It is out dated. It is not good for good governance by government. It is not in the interests of Australians. It is not only a waste of national resources from more frequent election, but also results in more myopic policies and political opportunists.
Above all, it needs reform. A fixed term election is needed and will put a much harder constraint on government.
Australia should wake up to the 21st century. We, as a nation, needs to be mature. We should not tolerate obvious inefficiencies and irrationality.
