Mr Hockey clarifies “the difference between an economy and a Budget”

Joe Hockey says “There is no crisis at all in the Australian economy.” (1), then he clarifies that “…listeners are smart enough to know the difference between an economy and a Budget…” (2)

“…the Australian economy is relatively strong and we want it to get stronger to create the jobs but the Budget is in crisis…”

We’re so used to all the speculation and scaremongering regularly floating around from all sides that it’s hard to know who’s got selective political deafness and who’s being honest.

What do you think?
