Reference :- The first Robotdebt was a 720 million quid disaster . Undeterred , the government has launched Robotdebt 2 .
It looks like 11,000 citizens ( or so ) might have received too much financial assistance during the Covid pandemic . The government wants to be reimbursed . Of course they have left the sordid process of taking money from the poor in the hands of capable and experienced private debt collectors . There will be various charges and interest to be paid , that goes without saying . And at the expense of the Robotdebtors of course , one can't expect the government to cover the cost of any mistakes .
Anyway , the good news is that Australia's 31 billionaires have seen their fortunes increase by 85 billion quid so far during the pandemic . Doubtless those billions will trickle down to the rest of us in due time .
" Do you think much will trickle down to us out here at Kooralya ? " , Monte said .
" I think most of it will trickle down to the Cayman Islands . " , Ken junior said .
Personally I am not sure where the Cayman Islands are , having never visited the Great Barrier Reef myself . But what with the coral bleaching and all , a billion or two to save the polyps would be money well spent .
Your comrade , Ken .
