Some dope in the comments over there:
“ The Howard government prided them selves on getting into surplus, after the Keating government”s recession they had to have. But what they don’t tell us is that they sold off public utilities, airports, and industrial relation reforms to run this surplus and in the mean time house hold debt tripled over that period and from that point on governments have kept lowering interest rates up til this point in time.

Australia never had a GFC in the first place.... dude was probably 10 years old in 2008 and doesn’t even know what went on....
