    If Swan had performed in the private sector as he has in the position of treasurer he would have trouble finding work now cleaning bathrooms in a hamburger chain restaurant.

    :lol: FAIL.

    Hmmm, -$7.5 billion out of a total revenue of ~$370 billion = -2%. Oh-mi-gosh. A sledgehammer of 2% to revenues. How can anyone handle such extreme volatility? The poor Swanster. :mad:

    He's a wonder of the Julia Gillard school of pragmatic politics!

    He stands for absolutely nothing, sells out Australia's interests when politically expedient to do so and sucks up to the "global leaders" at the G20 for the warm glow he gets from it, meanwhile blaming the effects of the policies he praises for the nations economic problems and his abysmal performance as "Treasurer".

    Would the real Wayne Swan please stand up!

    The most interesting photos from the G20 conference in the AFR this morning where the one's with Mr Swan sitting next to Glenn Stevens (RBA Governor) and then Ms. (I don't pay taxes) Lagarde of the IMF. Yes, the bankers.
