The Rudd Government would have been better off spending the $42 billion on the resource sector. They should have spent $20 billion securing RIO instead off selling it off OS.
The other $20 billion should of been spent building the infrastructure manufacturing capacity to use the iron ore and coking coal right here to export steel, not two cheap raw products. The money would have been paid back a lot faster and Australia would be way better off in the long run.
