Rubbish! Context needed. We are talking about the GFC as it swept around the globe and confidence would have crumbled had it not been for a whole range of stimulus measures as recommended by Treasury. It helped Australia avoid recession as global activity contracted. Of course subsequently the world position improved and with it Australia’s prospects. Australia at the height of the GFC did not suffer to the same extent as others because it acted quickly to stimulate the economy. IMO you should take heed of your own advice instead of presuming you know better than everyone else. Its just egotistical bull-dust!
