Yep. Victimhood is power; but only as long as the cowardly political class and the virtue signallers play the game.

Thanks ttbn for the government spending statistics. Kudos.

No mention of the elephant in the room, $52 billion in payments for aged welfare, pensions and care, and growing rapidly. Another $30 billion is need immediately to top up aged care alone.

Yes, $4.5 billion spent on 3% of the population on dodgy programs [showing small capital return] and $52 billion spent on retirement savings and disadvantages spent on 40% of the population [showing health and welfare returns].

The biggest whack is spent exclusively on the mere 3% of Australians claiming some aboriginality; the rest is shared by the other 26 million, with the 3% getting special treatment also getting a share of that as well!

Not satisfied with the unfairness of 3% of the population having exclusive, discriminate access to $39.5 billion, the Albanese government wants the same 3% to have more say in Parliament than the 97% of us.

All Albanese's pre-election promises have been broken, except the one about 'changing Australia'. Even if Albanese (he is a dictator; it's hard to believe that the whole government is so extreme) lasts only another two years, he will have changed (ruined) Australia alright, and the refugees will be leaving here, not coming.

$30 billion is need immediately to top up aged care alone.
Paul1405,
Do you mean to bring retired workers benefits on par with those for self-proclaimed indigenous ?
