Well, what a fantastic result for we baby boomers. Those naive Gen Y and Gen Xers fell for the old pea and thimble trick again.

Then, with double digit interest rates, we wily boomers will make a windfall on our savings. And when those vacuous, starry-eyed young Labor cheer squads have to sell their mortgaged homes at fire-sale prices, cashed-up opportunists like us will be able to pounce.



No wonder the world hates baby boomers. We're just too clever.

Smile ya bastards.

Must agree with you.Personally,as I earn in US dollars but spend in OZ dollars I have watched my take home pay decrease substantialy,due to a climbing exchange rate,over the last 4 years.
Kevin gets in,the market reacts and already I have a reasonable pay rise with more to follow(hopefully).
My thanks to the voters,now for the important thing,I can finish my car.
