Local Labor member and former Australian National University Professor Andrew Leigh, in justifying Labor's massive higher education cuts to a large group of student protesters, fell back on that old furphy that things would be worse under Abbott. That's like the python who is squeezing us to death warning us to beware of the tiger lurking nearby. In fact Labor's attacks lay the groundwork for possible attacks by the Liberals in the future. Such is the degeneration of the ALP that the Liberals agree with Labor's current cuts to higher education. The way to fight Abbott's neoliberalism is to fight Gillard and Leigh's neoliberalism. http://enpassant.com.au/2013/05/07/canberra-times-ignores-hundreds-of-uni-students-protesting-against-cuts/ ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@greenhouse.economics.utah.edu Set your options at: http://greenhouse.economics.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
