A recent blog from Tim Dunlop ask's " If you change the government, do you really change the country?" 
This is part of a link sharing blog which Tim is giving a go and I think it's a great idea, if forums are allowed to participate as well?

You can read the blog here.

My response to the question is yes I think it does change the country but not enough to impact on most peoples lives. I think the mums and dad's of the country will still go about their lives as normal and won't feel too much of the effects of Government change. Typically where there has been tax relief there has been increases in the cost of necessities such as Petrol and interest rates. 

I doubt any government would cause change that much to significantly impact on the majority of Australians lives.

People care less about economic issues and more about "Green" or other superfluous issues when they (and other Australian's) "have never been better off".
