government revenue grows 24% since 2008, page-11

Hi Alan ... for me the important number is last Howard/Costello 2006-7 Federal Budget which was like $270bio which came in under budget with $15bio SURPLUS ... ooops !!

Sooo ... from Howard/Costello .. $255 > Gillard/Swan .. $376 = + $121bio = 48% blowout ... in like 5 years !!

But PM Gillard told Leigh Sales (7:30) the other night that .. "... we have identified $100billion in savings ..[in the Budget] .. " phew !!!

Glad PM Gillard has it all under control .. so all is okies !!


Cheers ... tight stops.
