Economy

The ALP believe that economy is one of the most if not the most important issues in Australia. Thus we have given it 15% of the money in our budget.

At the moment the Australian economy is worn rather thin and we are suffering major job cuts. Experts are saying that we may yet dip down into another recession in the comng years due to inflation.

However, if elected the ALP pledge to:

- Send out stimulus packages to the people of Australia, if our dollar takes a significant dive, similar to what Kevin Rudd did to boost the economy during the recession.

- Try to ensure jobs for all Australians no matter what qualifications or stage of life they are in

-Maintain the strong nature of the Australian dollar compared to other countries such as America.

- And ultimately to keep Australia as a good economic force and prevent us falling into the traps that have caught out countries such as Greece and Italy
