and if the world didn't have money, would the US still want to own it? what if gold didn't exist - would Caifornia and Kalgoorlie exist today?
seriously Bill....?! or am i missing sarcasm there?
sorry, but WA is a big dirty hole in the ground where lots of cool stuff comes out on the back of trucks and out of pipes from under the ocean, that is sold for a motza on the international stage. employment in WA is still low compared to Australia (and Ireland and Spain too...) and our median house prices have just passed the "boom" top.
there's no "what if" because without WA and QLD, this country grinds to a screaming halt, bursts into flames, dissolves the tarmacadam underneath and ends up a big gooey pile of plastic, cheap backbencher suits and cappucino cups.
