Six months ago, we were told by Cullen we had a $2.4 billion surplus that has now, magically turned into a $5.4 billion deficit??? We are not talking about shares on which the value has dropped but actual money/taxes/income that has gone!! How can this be?? Even if I was a bad gambler, I can't see how I could lose my house, the neighbours’, on either sides, houses or the garage and spa pool of the neighbour over the road. $5B to the Government is about 10% of the tax take. There'd be lots of private citizens with more than 10% of next years income already tied up on credit card or GE Finance.	PaulD (232)
