Just wish we could get the best of all worlds.

The partisan vortex is seriously depressing.
Thinking that the PCs are shrewd fiscal managers does not exist within reality. The PCs have increased spending, have increased the debt, created hosts of new regulations on business, bailed out corporate sectors and have generally acted in less interest to the public purse than the other party.
Public spending after inflation and population growth is higher since when the Tories took government.
The Conservatives have added $160 billion to the national debt.
Yet meanwhile you seem to imply that the Liberals are somehow worse fiscal managers? There's literally no basis to that claim.
