Again, I appreciate the question and the spirit in which it is asked, but it reminds me of the very fact that a core promise of this government on coming to power was to reduce the extent of the nanny state. That is what we are about. We believe in individuals. We believe in freedom. We believe in giving people the capacity to get out there, earn a living and get a proper return for their enterprise and their activity. That is what distinguishes these two great streams of Australian politics, and to my dying day people on this side of the House will stand up for a lower-tax, lower-regulation, prosperous economy that promotes economic opportunity for all.
