I’d just like see less money wasted and some of the long term problems fixed. Notably the education system, unless people want the next generation to become the trash of their own country with all the associated problems that brings (I’ll call it “dumb male syndrome”), including declining workplace productivity.

Other things like the roads and PT should be fixed also if we are really going to have a great population explosion, and increasing the overall population’s health (cf. spending more on hospitals) would probably be worthwhile too so we don’t end up spending all our money on keeping increasingly unhealthy people living longer via interventions that might have otherwise been avoided.

I’m sure those things are more important than all the middle-class welfare scams that exist that money gets wasted on or perhaps I’m just grumpy today!

It’s also a stunning picture of how lucky you can be if you sit on a gold mine and gold prices go up, and given the collapsing infrastructure of Australian cities, obviously a stunning picture of how you can waste money also.
