By showing the way with the Federeal .. Voldemort influences the now or soon-to-be LNP states to start the same process... look deeply into their costs and benefits... wonder YTF they have duplicate federeal and state agencies etc... why there are all these Star Chamber 'commissions' dotted all over the PS landscape achieving buggar-all..... why we even need anyone outside the established established to determine our needs in submarines and such... why there are so many jobs for the girls, so many for the boys, and so many for the pet groups doing buggar-all but whine and cause trouble.  Look at the silliness of some of those - a 'human rights commission' that ignores humanity as a whole and specialises in minority groups only.... (you've seen the list of priorities I once posted for you that they have)..

...... drain one swamp and you show the way to draining the rest...

Now then -about that affirmative action to restore balance between men and women, between straights and weirdoes, and recover the True Gender Wage Gap Crisis where men are being paid nearly 10% less per hour worked..... being raped of 10% an hour to suit lies.... and put everyone on a genuinely equal footing... including in schooling at the younger ages...

Hands up those who think that men headmasters etc would have not noticed perverts among the staff abusing children - and then taken action?

Ahh. Good OP Dave.

The problem you have is that Australia's Political future can never be like America's, up there in the Northern Hemisphere.
It's been trying hard to be, since the Greedy is Good 80's, but Australia has been swimming hard 'against the current' in doing so and the cracks are starting to show.

Australia's Southern Hemisphere political future will be a political Majority population under the 'power' of an Art Industry Minority at the top of the pyramid.
The 'reverse' of America which has Politics in power at the top with a Minority population, but a very large Majority population of the peanut paying Art Industry.

Sure, you can say "But that isn't the case here." and you be right. But Australia will eventually Politically fracture and shatter (like Yugoslavia) into many Independent nations like Cape York, Riverina, Sterling, Wimmera and lots more. Where the Shires hold the 'power' and the weakest political figures are the Prime Ministers (servants of USA) and Governor-Generals for Great Britain as representatives.

We saw just a glimpse of it during Covid Lockdowns where the States were suddenly the political priority over the Federal, that looked like it was out of work. Australia economically boomed to become #1 in the world until the Feds said " you're all vaccinated, let the Virus in!"


Power:
Aust: Art individual, Politics people.
USA: Art people, Politics individual.


So expect Australia's political sector to keep growing in numbers as the $$$ is spread among the common people of this here common wealth.

In November 2024, the federal government employed just over 3 million people, or 1.87% of the entire civilian workforce, according to BLS data. That figure doesn't count the roughly 1.3 million active-duty military personnel, who aren't typically considered “employees.”7 Jan 2025


All copy from google search.

Public sector is not the same as the public service.

For example, higher education staff are not employed as Commonwealth or State public servants but ARE paid from Commonwealth grants even as most universities are statutory authorities established by State legislations (few exceptions like ANU and the privates)

I just type the question into google.
It’s very easy.
I acknowledged my source under the copy and paste.


Thinking about it the number is significantly higher.

Look at the Star Casino fiasco and a private company demanding the government fund them in someway to save 9000 “private sector jobs” secured by public money.

Private schools? Same deal, public money funding private enterprise.

Private hospitals?

It’s apparently a private enterprise right to be publicly funded?

How many more workers does that put on the taxpayer teat?

Labor has created another 169,500 taxpayer funded jobs since June 2022.

Is the Indigenous Ambassador who is on $350K a year one of these Labor created taxpayer funded jobs?
