During the greatest resources boom in our history, the Labor party has doomed Australia to a massive debt of some $300bn+ with nothing but destruction of our culture and economy in its ruinous wake. Why does Labor always leave massive deficits and the coalition surpluses? Is it a Marxist thing?

It is a Marxist, Maoist and Keynesian thing. Libs know how to get our economy on track which is sometimes unpopular, and Labor knows how to buy popularity and votes by giving Australians free money and reflating the economic bubble.

Recessions are a necessary process to weed out inefficient firms and clean out the excesses of the previous boom. Labor prevented a recession by going deep into debt and fueling consumption to boost the GDP figures. This will result in short term gain for long term pain.
