There is gross financial irresponsibility federally and in some states. However many US states have been quite financially responsible and managed to balance their budgets without raising taxes (Wisconsin comes to mind, where the Governor overcome public sector union opposition to push through severe budget cuts). I don't think Tony Abbott or most of the Liberal and National parties have the desire to push through severe budget cuts (including cuts to social security benefits) to get the budget balanced.
