I cannot see 'The Celtic Tiger' giving up any of it's succulent share of the snared steak it borrowed from the dead LLama,and for that matter, neither your Uncle Sam and family giving back anything they rightfully earned or stole. nor Mr Gates and friend giving a grant to the state. As the recession is considered a global one,a metaphorical phrase from the past is probably not considered relevant,except for the Irish, for in your own words Joxser,America is 43% Irish, and probably culpable(Catholic logic)I quote the phrase; "When America sniffles,England coughs,and Ireland gets a cold" So the Australian peoples are magnamimous,and generous to a tee,'cough it up mate!!,your gov. needs you.They have retained what we have lost or never had, sympathy for the government?, comraderie?unity?. It's a warm climate down under, the outback is still unforgiving,and Johnny the Abbo is going for a walkabout |
