Australia was pretty much unaffected by all that. And it seems OP mentioned that subprime bubble.

OP was implying that because the US property boom and bust involved deception ("scam driven") that it wasn't a real bubble - only close to a bubble.

OP never mentioned Aus - only that they had heard a lot of talk of bubbles but hadn't identified any. I was just giving a few recent examples that I'm sure most would agree qualify as such.

This whole thread is based on an article about Aus. I think it's reasonable to take people's comments in that context unless otherwise specified.
