I'd be a lot happier if our dollar was around 75cents, China growth wasn't over 4%
We cannot view economic growth in developing countries in the same context as developed countries.

"But given China's current socioeconomic structure, single-digit growth is no longer bearable because a country with a 1.3 billion population needs to grow at a rate of at least 10 percent to create enough jobs to absorb new entrants to the workforce, Yuan said. Anything slower than 10 percent is sure to create massive unemployment, while 7 percent to 8 percent would be "tantamount to zero growth," causing more joblessness and deflation, he said."
Quoting from a Jan 2009 paper: http://www.foreignpolicydigest.org/January-2009/Archive/chinas-slow-growth-challenge.html
"China hopes that its stimulus package will boost growth rates to 8 percent (the point at which the country can maintain sufficient employment for its population), but reports by the World Bank and World Economic Forum suggest that this may be unlikely."
A growth of less than 4% for China will spell disaster for Australia's economy as this will mean a drastic plummet of resources export to China.
