Just post some stuff and don't spam.
I assume "Other purposes" is govt kickbacks to mining and gas companies 😬
Nice to see our debt is being reduced. Meanwhile, the US is struggling to figure out how not to let their economy implode.
Un~~fortunately paying the interest on your debt is not the same as paying down the actual (principle) debt. Unless there's something I'm not seeing.~~
Edit: There was in fact something I wasn't seeing.
See “gross debt this year” and “last year”. We had surplus so it has been put toward paying down the principle

In the US we just all know that it's bombs to kill the enemies of whoever the companies are allowed to sell them to, and fighter jets that don't work.

They'd never give us something so comprehensive.
Is this hard to do in practice? I would love to see a breakdown like this in the United States, and especially on a local level. What’s involved in getting this information? Where does someone even start to request something like this?
That is a freaking sweet seal for the Australian Government! Id wear that on a shirt
I wish we had this in Canada.
I wish we had it in New Zealand too. I get tired of people's hallucinations about tax.
