All Can-Do is having to do is get rid of some of the bloated public service created by the Bligh government where, just as one example, in Qld Health there are two administrative employees for every single health worker.Another 2000 on the scrapheap courtesy of the incompetent Newman Government .....
I lost interest in him when he used the first parliamentary session to give him and his bloated party squadron a payrise. Talk about arrogance!All Can-Do is having to do is get rid of some of the bloated public service created by the Bligh government where, just as one example, in Qld Health there are two administrative employees for every single health worker.
Lack of money = social unrest is what I was getting at.
But then the idea of marauding gangs of property developers does create a picture

Is that 2:1 figure backed up with a link or something ? Looks like more propagnda to take the heat off cant-do incompetence. Might be his next target , sack half of health workers , make doctors do their own admin , work 20hrs a day instead of 16 ? Then the next wave of interstate retirees who havnt contributed a bean to Qld will rock up so we can up doctors workload to 22hrs aday ...... 2 hrs sleep and some pseudoephedrine should see them through .....
Can do!

In other news, about 200 positions are to be cut from the Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAFF), with more 'savings' to be made before the budget.
After weeks of speculation about as many as 550 job losses in the newly formed department, Minister John McVeigh has confirmed hundreds of positions will go.
Alex Scott from Together Queensland said they were expecting significant job cuts to be announced in the next few days, including up to 2000 in Public Works and Housing.
Earlier, Treasurer Tim Nicholls revealed job losses in Queensland's public service could amount to more than 20,000.

Hopefully they choose 20,000 people who are half a mil in debt each so than can take down a bank or something
BILLIONAIRE Clive Palmer is more in touch with the man on the street than Premier Campbell Newman is, a union has claimed.
The outspoken Mr Palmer has criticised the LNP's approach to Government saying they haven't created a "can do" atmosphere.
In an interview on ABC Radio, Mr Palmer slammed the decision to axe funding to political parties as risking the "independence" of political groups, and taking Queensland back to a pre-Fitzgerald era.
He also attacked the mounting job cuts, saying they alone would not create the savings needed to dig the State out of its financial black hole.
"If we get rid of 20,000 (public servants) that will save $1.8 billion which isn't even enough to pay the interest on a $100 billion debt," Mr Palmer said.
why do you want to wish ill on other people? do you enjoy seeing other suffer or business going bankrupt?

Boral has just cut 700 positions across all its business divisions.
Bluescope Steel cut 170 positions last week.
Most of these would be ALP voters ... they must be pleased that Gillard has ensured that Thomson and Poacher's Pantry Pete have kept their snouts in the trough!
ALP voters - regressive taxes, anti-business rhetoric, the support of entrenched union corruption, the winding back of much needed industrial relations reform and the spending of Australia's largesse on pink bats, pokies (via the fiscal 'stimulus' hand outs) and over priced school canteens means you lose your jobs in the eye of the producitvity storm.
But don't worry; Paul Howes will say it is mean and unfair and give you a cuddle.
Jokes on us I'm afraid.
5500 jobs lost last month. Seems as though all those news headlines are finally flowing through into the jobs figures
