If the question was "Should we be giving PM's a budget on top of their salary?" that'd be a great discussion. Instead, it was "Should we be paying for that hypocrite's budget if he uses it on childcare since he was against rich people getting the UCCB handout?"
Failed games of "gotchya" rarely spur measured discussion. Didn't work when the Liberals desperately tried it for the last 10 years. Won't work when the conservatives desperately try it for the next number.
People just dig in.
