Have a great day everyone. Thanks for dropping by, commenting and discussing politics and policy issues during 2008. It's been a great year blogging wise. Blogging is slowly gaining acceptance in Australia, despite the resistance.

Looking forward to many more discussions and debates on public and political issues after the Xmas holidays. It sure has been an eventful year, what with the crisis in financial capitalism and its impact of the global economy. That has made it a watershed year. When coupled with climate change (less rain, the melting of the Arctic sea ice, and temperature increases of 2 degrees are effectively already in the system) 2008 was an epochal year.
The Rudd government delivered ion the economic slowdown. It's response to climate change was characterised by short term politics and a culture of failure.
