    2012/3, hopefully I've worked this out correctly.
    Health cost the government $2541.66 per person. (Total cost 61,003,000,000)
    Social security and welfare costs 131,656,000,000. Newstart (24000000 people (only adults?) at 6% would cost (if 6% is of full population) a total of xxxx  18,720,000,000 (at latest payout - not 2012/3) Wonder where the other 113,000,000,000 goes?
    Education costs 29,572,000,000.
    General public service 22,054,000,000 (wonder what general is?)
    Defense 21,559,000,000
    Other purposes 69,994,000,000
    Other functions 40,443,000,000 wonder what these two are?

    Interesting figures, I find the health costs amasingly high because this must just be the Governments share?
