Australia takes from the poor to give to the rich

<https://www.smh.com.au/national/australia-takes-from-the-poor-to-give-to-the-rich-20180404-p4z7sn.html>

"Research commissioned by Anglicare Australia shows that each year, a
staggering $68 billion is spent keeping the wealthiest households
wealthy. That is greater than the cost of Newstart, disability support,
the age pension, or any other single welfare group."

Via Muse, who wrote: "A friend sent this to me for some research I am
doing. This makes my heart hurt."
