Sure you will have surplus, if you don't do any new infrastructures, sell all public owned assets, cut the money for education, hospitals etc.. & be the highest taxing country in the first world. Then you have extraordinarily high metal prices, because of booming China, bringing in lot of extra cash. Also higher prices of all goods & services means higher GST paid!. The unemployment figure they give is based on someone working one hour paid job / fortnight to be called as "employed" is a big joke. These manipulators are paid millions of dollars to coerce us to vote for them. I sure expect some gimmicks again this time. All IMO only.
