I personally will be voting Greens for a few reasons. First of all because their policies are going to be of the best benefit for the environment with strict policies on issues like nuclear power/weapons and also their policies for clean energy technologies are the most comprehensive out of all parties I have researched. I also like their ideas of lowering the voting age to 16 because it gives people who've left school and are doing apprenticeships the say they deserve, after all they are working full time and are directly affected by the choices of parliament. Also they have policies against corporate donations to government parties which I think should have been set in place a long time ago especially for cigarette, alcohol and oil companies. They also want to give more to public schools than what their private counterparts receive which is long overdue. They also want to revitalize the CSIRO and CRC so that they can continue to perform world-class research. They also want to decriminalize the cultivation of marijuana and use marijuana as medicine.
While I'm realistic and know that the Greens probably won't be voted in, at least in my electorate I believe their vision to be the best of all the parties and am therefore supporting the Greens!
