To wit, in that analyses and projection sheet, they forecast concurrent years of 3%+ growth. That's an improvement over the rocky years we've just had. It's stable and relative our peers it is sometimes double their growth rates. Australia sees 1.5% to 2.25% growth a year in the new environment (And this is with extremely low unemployment levels). Even Germany is seeing sub 1% growth levels right now. We should not look at these numbers with disdain given the reality of international trade at the moment. I should also note that lots of our growth is internal and not as reliant on exports as those nations. Again, this bodes well.
