It was important to hamilton, for example. Jefferson very adamantly disagreed with burkes reading of france. He was a friend of paines, a close friend during the revolutionary years. He thought that paines great pamphlet, common sense, was extreme lu important and ought to be extremely important and helped it get distributed. He helped him get a job as the secretary to the committee on Foreign Relations of the continental congress. And he was a kind of patron of Thomas Paines in some ways. When paine came back to america after france jefferson was president. He was wary of being associateed with paines views on religion so didnt hang out with him very much. But he helped him get established, helped him get a job, and the two knew each other very well. They were friends. Sue finish. Well, the most superb. Well, the most important rule of a bill of rights book fair is that it end on time, so im afraid were going to have to skip the remaining two questions. But, ladies and gentlemen, were

The social and economic destruction that comes from prolonged and high unemployment, the destruction of communities, something the labor party was formed to fight against. That is why all these years later i am so proud of the record of this labor government in dealing with the challenges the Global Financial crisis and the threat of high unemployment and social dis
