those headlines also referred to howard's govt.

coupled with the pre gfc credit boom, it was the howard govt who had the most opportunity from the boom. instead, he pissed it away in election tax cuts. come the gfc, the horse had bolted.

true to form, abbott is promising tax cuts. perhaps he might want to consider consolidating some revenue.

regardless, a mining boom comes from overseas demand, irrespective of who the govt is.
