The money was paid out as part of a stimulus package worth A$52 billion (RM145 billion) since September as the country slid into recession and the government forecast unemployment would double to one million by late next year. Much of the money was tax refunds to poor and middle-income earners, pensioners and families with young children, but A$14 million (RM39 million) was paid to 16,000 dead citizens and A$25 million (RM70 mil- lion) to 25,000 Australians living abroad. “Grateful dead get a raise from Kev,” said one headline, referring to Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, whose Labour government’s economic management credentials have long been its achilles heel. Finance Minister Lindsay Tanner insisted the money was well spent and would still find its way into the economy. “Even where they go to people who are dead, of course they go to the estate,” he told local television. The estate typically is going to consist of ordinary Australians who will in turn get the payments, and on balance over time, will spend those payments,” Tanner said. He said it was impossible to determine from recent tax return records who was dead or alive. – Reuters
