MANY Australians are led to believe that the Indigenous population does not have a so called ‘voice’ where a change to the Constitution is required.
This is a deliberate misrepresentation of facts, or more simply put one huge lie perpetuated by the government and the mainstream media.
Indigenous Australians do factually have a ‘voice’ where this action has been documented in an annual report called the Indigenous Expenditure Report.
The ‘voice’ of Indigenous Australians is represented in:
- 3,278 Aboriginal Corporations, obviously muzzled by the Crown under Corporation law,
- 243 Native Title bodies,
- 48 Land Councils,35 Regional Councils,
- Over 122 Aboriginal agencies,
- 3 Advisory bodies,
- 145 Health Organisations,
- 11 Federal MPs of Indigenous background,
- 12 Culturally important Indigenous days.
What is the cost of all this?
- $33b for approx. 984,000 Indigenous persons, or 3.8% of Australia’s total population,
- Expenditure: $43,449, per person in FY 2012-13 on Indigenous Australians,
- Expenditure: $20,900 on other Australians, or ~ 2.08 x more, and increase from 1.95x from 2009,
- $100m per day for direct support every year, or $39.5b p.a.
These figures are base on the above mentioned report produced by the Productivity Commission.
