>I have some sympathy with what you are saying. ;-) However, Australia's buried wealth represents a nest egg worth millions of $ per citizen. You are unbelievably wealthy and can dig, dig, dig to get yourselves out of almost any conceivable mess. By way of comparison, for every $1 of equivalent resource value in NZ per citizen, Australia has at least $50 and there is a lot more of you. You could dig half it up and *still* be hugely wealthy- as long as you make sure that the nation gets its share.
This thread has drifted (as all others seem to do) so far from the original subject (thank goodness). At least for thread drift it was pretty interesting... :o)
