Treasurer's Speech - Plenty of will

Been running my word clouder over the Treasurer's budget speech....did you know "Will" was mentioned 83 times! That's a lot of will.
Other interesting results

"Government" mentioned 30 times
"Budget" 29 times
"Build" 22 times
"People" 21 times
"Billion" 20 times
"new" 17 times
"now" 17 times

Contrast this with Wayne Swans last budget in 2013.

"Economy" mentioned 29 times
"Billion" 27 times
"Australia" 26 times
"Speaker" 23 times
"Will" 22 times
"Tonight" 21 times
"Budget" 20 times
"Million" 20 times

So what can we say about the two speeches. Hockey is all about the Governments Budget, that it is new, its going to build stuff and is happening now and they Will do stuff.

Wayne Swan was all about the economy, focused on the dollars and talking to the speaker that night , rather than the people. And that they will do stuff, but not as much.
