Phase 1: “Open the Books” 🔎 We’re on a mission to uncover fraud and wasteful spending by exposing every dollar the Australian Government allocates—so you can see how policy commitments become real outcomes. We’re pushing for radical transparency, but bureaucratic silos, legacy systems, and institutional resistance often lock away vital data. Our strategy? Leverage FOI, demand stronger data‑sharing mandates, and publish in open, machine‑readable formats. We especially need NV2‑cleared engineers with skills in cloud architectures (Docker, Kubernetes, AWS/Azure), API development, ETL/data pipelines, blockchain development (smart contracts), and cybersecurity frameworks (ASD Essential Eight). If you’re ready to help crack open government spending and make it truly accountable, DM us to join the team. 🚀✨

He forgot the biggest oligarch of all: big bureaucracy. Moreover, he failed to mention how many jobs the owners of these so-called “oligarchs” have created. Companies like Tesla, Amazon, and Meta have provided millions of jobs globally, supporting countless families and driving innovation. A balanced discussion should consider both wealth concentration and the economic opportunities these businesses generate.

@rosieslewis @aus_politics @AlboMP @danielhurstbne While a dance at #PIFLM52 adds charm, Australians deserve focus on real issues—climate action, regional security, and spending accountability. Let’s prioritise what truly matters.

Thank you for highlighting the importance of affordable and reliable energy for local businesses like I Eat Fresh. At DOAGE, we emphasise transparency and accountability in energy policy. Could you provide access to the independent modeling referenced in your statement? Public access to such data ensures informed discussions about the economic and environmental impacts of energy strategies.

Australia has the potential to be the best country in the world, but this divisive rhetoric distracts from real issues. Let’s focus on addressing housing affordability, cost of living, and education to elevate our nation on the global stage. Together, we can build a stronger, united Australia.

@mattjcan Senator, while this poll is lighthearted, Australians are grappling with critical issues like housing affordability, cost of living, and healthcare access. Let’s focus on policies that address these challenges and secure a prosperous future for all

🏛️ The $27B/year Budget Loophole You’re Paying For: Australian governments are hiding 1% of GDP annually – $110B over four years – through off-budget accounting tactics. Here’s how it works, and how DOAGE plans to stop it. The Tactic: Off-Budget "Investments" -Mechanism: Loans/equity labelled as “net cash flows from investments in financial assets for policy purposes” – excluded from core budget metrics like the underlying cash balance[1]. - Examples: - $16B HELP debt write-offs obscured as “loan portfolio revaluations” - $12B Snowy Hydro 2.0 cost overruns buried in PNFC sector reporting - $2B WestConnex concessional loans classified as policy-driven “investments” 📊GDP Impact: -Federal: $78B over 2024-28 (0.7% GDP/year) - States: $34B over same period (0.3% GDP/year) - Total: 1% of Australia’s $2.7T GDP annually Why It Matters: ⚠️ Hidden Risks: - 1 in 6 HELP loans already written off ($1.2B/year) - Gov’t investment vehicles underperform market returns by 2-4% ($211-356M/year loss) - IMF warns such spending fuels unaccounted inflation DOAGE’s Countermeasures: 1. Real-Time Fiscal Mapping - Public dashboards tracking $78B federal + $34B state cash flows 2. Mandatory Risk Disclosures - Quantify balance sheet impacts in budget papers (e.g. HELP’s $16B hit to net financial worth) - Parliamentary simulations of debt scenarios for major projects 3. LLM-Powered Oversight - Audit underperforming loans (CEFC, NRFC) against market benchmarks - Flag “commercial-in-confidence” abuses in PPP contracts 4. Citizen Accountability Tools - Crowdsourced reporting portals for pork-barreling alerts - Quarterly public hearings on state energy corp debt shuffles 🔍 Case Study: The 20% HELP debt write-off was hidden via: - Budget engineering: Classified as “policy investment” not affecting underlying cash balance - Aggregate reporting: Buried in loan portfolio revaluations with no line-item disclosure - Equity distortion: Benefits higher earners while socialising $16B cost across taxpayers Without DOAGE: > Politicians [keep] exploiting accounting rules to hide true costs With DOAGE: - Live disclosure of all concessional finance terms - Debt impact assessments for every off-budget measure - Public scoring system for fiscal risk transparency Act Now & Join DOAGE, DM US Wake.Up.Australia

We understand that official clearances only apply in certain contexts. When we do gain access, we need a team whose integrity and skill set we can fully rely on. Building that trusted, security-focused team now ensures we’ll handle sensitive information responsibly and transparently the moment it’s in our hands.

We hear you—and we agree there’s too much spending. Far too many consultant reports deliver nothing but bureaucratic noise, and too many roles exist simply to justify more funding. When government productivity slides and royalties prop up the system, it starts looking like a Ponzi scheme that can’t go on forever. We’re here to pull back the curtain, trace every dollar, and expose the bloat. It’s time the public sees exactly where their money goes, because the best way to fix waste is to bring it fully into the light
