More Jobs! Better Australia! Trust Us!

Just heard one of the new Industrial Relations Reforms Ain't They Great ads:

HILLSONG HELEN: Hi honey, why are you home early?

BATTLER BOB: (especially dumb voice) We're on strike. The government's going to cut my holidays in half!

HILLSONG HELEN: No, that's not right. I read about it in the paper. Look. It says here they won't cut four weeks' annual leave, won't cut award wages, or abolish awards!

VOICE OF GOD: The Australian government is committed to a plan to create more jobs, higher wages, and a stronger economy. For more information on the more workplace relations plan, see this weekend's newspapers. Take the time to read it, and find out the facts yourself.

Well, there it is kids - as clear as a bell! The economic case put in easy-to-understand terms, the union smear campaign comprehensively kicked in the nuts. It's easy!

1) Read the boring looking ad in the newspaper (but not the Sydney Morning Herald, as you might encounter this rather inconvenient article by Economics Editor Ross Gittins
2) Just trust us
3) Then vote for us

QED.
