One interesting thing about numbers in the workforce as well, is that as the years pass, more and more people are becoming replaced by machines or technology.
Factories employing lots n lots of people seem to be a thing of the past and technology makes it harder and harder not to cut the numbers of people you employ.
Its still difficult to get ya head around the fact that only 11 million people in Australia out of 22 million work. I would never have thought it possible until i studied the bureau of statistic stuff.
A footnote regarding Ms Gillard, she wont be around after the next election. Well, I hope not anyhow. If she implements pinball arcades in every capital city, then I will vote for her. But I think pigs will fly first.
