Thanks. You don't have to have lost a lot to feel like complaining. I think the people that complain the most are those that see political promises in black and white. Breaking promises is bad. It is hard to get around the obvious logic of that when it is taken out of context. It would have been nice to have been able to keep the promise or to at least provide trust investors with an easy out, but there was no way to do so. I can't think of how I'd have done it differently, other than to give corporations the same benefits trusts had. You know how well that would have flown in this parliament. -g
