Kevin Rudd calls for a new era of "social capitalism"

Via the Syney Morning Herald:

“In an essay to be published next week, the Prime Minister is scathing of the neo-liberals who began refashioning the market system in the 1970s, and ultimately brought about the global financial crisis.”

That is why we Paleo-liberals must use this time to make our case… And stick it to the thrid-wayers… Up yours Christian social marketeers. — Don’t worry though, we welcome you back with open arms, but I can’t help but be pissed that you have probably damaged the perception of laissez-faire for decades to come. >_<

God damn socialists…

The oxymoron used during Paul Keating’s premiership was “market socialism”.

There’s always an unfettered free-market somewhere to be the scapegoat for government failures.

This was my reaction after seeing the front page headlines of this.

lol… not as ugly but. [:D] … I was pretty pissed.
