they could have increased the gst to 12% (not only raising tax revenue, but creating loads of jobs in IT and Finance functions as a bonus to get the new rate changed in all the systems out there)

budgets these days are about votes, not the economy..... our 4 year political terms make our pollies extremly short sighted and they have misaligned priorities to their shareholders (the population of aust).....
