Its not just government, the suits in private enterprise are just as bad.
Look at some of the ridiculous salaries paid to the top echelons, the private jets, the tax deductible lunches, overseas conferences at the best hotels, the luxury cars, the imperiously appointed offices.

"Adult services" are another one to add to that list of expenses.

No matter which way you look at the statistics, Victorians are are going further down the economic drain.
And before anyone says the election of a coalition government will fix it all, the coalition by dint of their inability to have any useful tasent in opposition has allowed the successive Labour governments to do as they please to the detriment of everyone except the unions and the public service.
