Interesting data on Labour spending

[king1]

The aspect that came to mind for me is what is the total of all those listed 'expenses'? A long way short of the "$139 billion per year" stated in the lead paragraph I would suggest. 

The problem is that most people go into a flat panic with mention of millions or billions but when broken down a million equates to 20c per capita, and a billion is $200/NZer. That breakdown applies to both expense to every NZer but also the real cost of implementing meaningful investment for all. The lack of awareness of sizeable monetary amounts is also a big part of the reason significant lotto winners often will have little to show for it a decade or so down the line.

True, but I'd rather have my $200 than let those useless Labour twits lose it.

Do you get the winter energy payment Kenj? That would be about the right amount wouldn't it?
