Hi crash,
Politicians use stats to hoodwink the public.
Did you know that the reason that the unemployment rate has dropped to around 5% is purely because JH takes people on the dole off it, and sends them to study basic courses at TAFE.
They are then transferred OFF unemployment and onto study allowance.
Thus, the stats say there are less unemployed technically than in reality.
It's akin to sending all criminals to New Zealand for a day, then doing a survey of criminals in Australia and after the survey's done, shipping them back here.
headline: "Australia has the lowest criminal record."
This is exactly how it's done.
This is false and misleading.
Enough politics.
:sad:
