So a few nights ago Treasurer Peter Costello unveiled the fiscal policy for 2005/6 in Australia. Changes include massive tax cuts mostly to income, but some say these will benefit the rich more than anyone. Health, Defence and many more got more expenditure thanks to Australia's $8.9 billion surplus. So if there are any aussie's or anyone who has an opinion in this area please post :)

The other Australian budget thread is here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=418234) if you're interested. Very few people replied so I don't think you'll get many more replies in this thread alas.
