You don’t consider govt overspending can be considerably attributed to unnecessary welfare ? Cash poor retirees comes about due to a lack of planning and the entitlement mentality. If a home is valued at a mil or more it should impact any welfare, that’s what would be fair to tax payers . Downsize and live on the change $, and perhaps a part pension if relevant. Living in a 2 million dollar property and being cash poor is madness, who maintains it ? I’m all for making govt accountBle with spending , in fact it would make sense to have a kpi gauge, if it’s good enough for big corps then why not govt. election promises may be toned down somewhat if a polies bonus hinges on performance .
