Re: oz budget
Yes I believe it was today (or rather yesterday in AUS). Haven't read through everything yet but u may want to have a look at these websites for info:
http://www.budget.gov.au/
http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599...012587,00.html
What I have read so far looks good

The WA State Treasure.... Ripper will give with one hand and take more with the other. He is a joke. This state Government has an inability to run properly and its just down to the amount of tax increases Rippoff has done over the last 5 years that we have a surplus of some 2 billion and not his skills.

Re: oz budget
Correct.
I'm happy with the Fed. budget. Small tax cut for me this year with a bigger one (over $2k) next year. Solar energy is now a serious option with the increased subsidy.
Thing is, is it enough to keep KRudd and his union cronies from winning the election?

Re: oz budget
Yep, we get an extra $21 a week thanks to the tax cuts 
Do they take effect immediately or at the start of the new financial year?

It would appear as a family we are $24.03846 a week better off.
By my calculations, I'm up by approximately 2.5 cartons of TED a month.
John Howard ... Political genius.
