    # !pol RT: @mfarnsworth: I think that was the best # ever: thoughtful, focussed on substantial issues, moving, with mainly substantial figures on the panel.

    !pol # RT: @mfarnsworth: ALP misunderstanding of Twitter continues. Gillard posts 34 tweets, few links, no interaction whatsoever. 'Email the PM' link is disabled.

    Do you agree with George Meglogenis that The Australian economy, for all its triumphs and missteps, remains an eight-company operation: four banks, two miners, one telco and one airline. westpac commonwealth NAB and ANZ, BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto, Telstra & QANTAS !pol

    @magpie I would add that the soundbite-culture of modern media also tends to confound serious debate in a particular way: it probably occurs more overall, but less in the visible mainstream. !pol /cc @senexx

    More media spin: http://j.mp/bZcF2f And, the spin goes, it was miners that suggested the tax in the first place. What the industry did say was that a resource rent tax made sense in the context of eliminating ad hoc state royalties. --um that is exactly what the tax proposes !pol
