nope I'm commenting on exactly what you wrote. The former government inherited a structural -$33b underlying cash deficit from the Labor government, along with a gross debt forecast of $667b before even kicking off.
Frydenberg prior to covid reduced the deficit to -$689m and was on track to achieve a surplus prior to a 1 in 100 year pandemic hitting.
So by your own arguments and fudged numbers, the nation was $22m worse off under the coalition, before COVID.
