He has made a few points - not very well mind you - and sadly he falls into the categroy of disgruntled ex whatevers living it up on his over generous super (tax payer funded more than likely ) with far too much time on his hands - he probably wrote this as it was raining and he couldnt play golf.
maybe I was wrong about his super - perhaps he got burnt in the GFC - but on that front he is patently wrong - we arent doing too badly in the general scheme of things - he cant really believe treasury, the reserve bank, the IMG, access economics and most every other bastard is wrong.
I dont have enough space to go on except to say - some one needs to expunge a few wqords from the common vernacular - and "spin" is one of them - over used wrongly applied and bores me to tears - it seems whenever some putz fails to understand something or worse still just doesnt like it they sling the word spin around as though it represents some canny and sophisticated assessment of things - just like that term "under the radar" get rid if them both - wetlands as well, get rid of the term wetlands too - swamp used to work - still does.
