Australia's unemployment increases under Abbott gov

What else do they think would happen? Slash jobs and entire industries, rip the guts out of the economy, the money dries up and people stop spending. Austerity simply doesn't work. This is proof. Our unemployment is now more than the once pitied US economy.

After 24 years of uninterrupted growth, Australia is now looking at the very real possibility of a recession. The gov has no plan except to get re-elected by outsmarting us all somehow. No plan for the future. No plan for a clean energy industry. If it does happen, Australia will be going into a recession with a gov asleep at the wheel.
