Elections are near, the time is coming for people to make the choice on weather our current government continues another term or we look at cutting our losses and moving on with a new government.

On one hand we have a current government lead by Julia Gillard reaching out, playing off names of this nations governments and media, noted in history as icons, hoping for the gain of brownie points to boost popularity amongst the people with or without those icons consent.

This is a government that spends beyond our countries means to push forward like a bullet train in the restructure of our infrastructure, that plays with revenue and bank loans like a credit card in the hope that keeping above payments will outrun the interest gains.

We may have a new prime minister for the same party, but we still have the same party that’s made the same decisions. These are decisions that have set the way for no return in revenue, no added surplus on surplus already gained, but more expenses in living, more taxes as a foresight of what’s to come for what’s already been done.

On our other hand we have our previous government with a new face, fresh and down to earth, a man living, working and responding at ground level. Tony Abbot one man not of the senate trained style of walking the loop but direct and realistic in his aims, views and responses’ without the hidden messages we usually would expect.

We are a nation in divide on who’s going to be good at the end of the night, who’s the fixer of what’s done, not out to be just number one. Is there one good government or is there none, maybe we really need to look back on the term spent to make our decision one not to regret.

Should we as the people of this nation standby letting Governments come and go, letting this country die, after they all have a go at trying this and trying that without achieving on the current fact.

But what’s a fact is that they are not paying attention to our ideas, sure they put goodies in-front of us here and there, giving one benefit for some and taking some from others. These people come up with ideas, vote on these choices, using stats of preference, being our so called voices, to make their own way according to their own style and their own say.

Well this is what I have to say is that as a country it’s time to align, it’s time that we as a people sit-up rather than sit-back paying attention to this as a fact. That we need to take action; put our foot down, stop this fabrication from continually going around.

There is an option available to our entire nation, a way to make our choices heard for all that the governments will be making, this option is a Leash.

Sure we have senators that take our voices to the upper house on our behalf and fence sitters that getting through can make it hard, but with a leash we all get heard, we all get a say not just those on the day.

Leash! What does it mean? A leash is a restraint that’s introduced on all discussions, decisions and plans of new introductions.

It is a way that all the public can have a say, you can select your choice Yes or No Once, for everything the governments got on the go.

How it is designed is as simple as this; We introduce kiosks in every town, city and suburb located at a location of convenience, continually updated panel on what’s the latest choices to choose from, remembered so voter may changed vote up to stats are taken inwhich choice becomes unavailable.

We select the use of our Drivers Licence, Tax File number, 18+ Card or School ID that the system cross-checks before making our vote.

These machines are secure and guarantees that stats are pure, that we as the people are getting our say and not some drivel pumped to play, our votes are counted and those stats will win no matter at the end of the day. Honesty...
