My question is to the Treasurer. If projected government debt continues for 50 years, Australia's debt as a percentage of GDP will be less than the OECD average today and less than the US, the UK and Japan today. So why destroy Australia's living standards with austerity? Has the Treasurer misled the Australian community? Why not tell the truth, Treasurer, and save your colleagues while you can from Newman's fate?
