It was divine sarcasm you nong. What are you, foreign or something?
When Keating apologises to me for wanting to defect to China, I'll consider it.

Keating's affection for China is only knee-deep and political. The man's a total Eurocrat

Yeah we are awesome at nothing, apart from prosperity.

Also i would have said being in the top 5 in the world for anything would be awesome.

Even 10th in the world at maths is pretty fucking good.

You're a dumb cunt if you can't comprehend why Australia is up there with the best countries in the world.

i would have thought the fact that we were in like the top 5 for prosperity and growth and stability and quality of life etc would give an indication that its a pretty cool place to live

We'll be bottom 5 if the Internet censorship passes through the senate.
Lol.

According to my economics class, we have the economy of a third world country, except we're, for some reason, extremely prosperous. So that wouldn't exactly put us in the top 5, would it?

Economy of a third world country? :< *looks around bedroom*

You are referring to reliance upon primary industry exports yes?

Um, we have one of the largest economies in the world (top 15 out of like 200) with one of the freest markets (4th), the equal 2nd strongest banking industry in the world, and an income disparity significantly lower than places like China, Russia or America. Oh, and an IT sector that's one of the top five best in the world (which counts for a fuck of a lot in the post-industrial age).

Your economics class is shit.

Oh... yeah. Well besides Canada and Norway we're the only other developed country whose economy is still based significantly on raw commodities (agriculture and natural resources). But that's still misleading because our service and manufacturing sectors are very sophisticated (e.g. see IT industry link in previous post) and both are larger than our agriculture/mining sectors.
