There seems to be a thought that the 42b is only the cash payments. The $950 payments make up 12b of the 42b being spent. The other 30b IS going into infrastructure, such as schools, local government, roads etc. so as far as I can see this package has both short term and long term components.
IF I recall correctly, the first package of 10.4b last year used either just over, or just under half the surplus, which I thought was about 21b. |

We're probably going to get the very old, cracked and buckled concrete at our house replaced, including a new driveway. It will of course cost far more than $950, but the money on offer (if the package is approved in the Senate) will be a welcome help.

Hmmm I might pay the ridicoulous rego for V8's if I got it ! Nice explanation using the dinner example MYYVSS ! This arguement will never end, as someone whom really needs it will always miss out and someone whom doesn't need it will get it. Where were all this handouts when I was working two jobs and studying full time to get my degree.

Perhaps a better question is, will your spending increase after having recieved the grant or will it go towards easing the burden of expenses you would've spent on anyway?
I don't think my spending will increase.
