There seems to be enough money to build $40 billion worth of submarines and Joint Strike Fighters. There seems to be enough money for these random defence procurement decisions that seem to be getting made. There was enough money to send hundreds of millions of dollars back to Rupert Murdoch. There was enough money to give the mining industry a massive tax cut. So do not start complaining about money, because it is falling on deaf ears for people who are suffering homelessness.

The homelessness research strategy has been axed. The Housing Help for Seniors pilot program, $170 million, has been axed.
