We have too much debt to give aid?

ADVOCACY Are we doing it too tough to give aid? Australia still the richest country in the world. Median wealth per adult is $225,000. US Median wealth is $45,000 by comparison. Average wealth is $431,000.

ADVOCACY How do we compare? This year, Oxfam estimate that the richest 1% will have as much wealth as the rest of the world combined. Australia has the highest proportion of people in the top 10% of wealth holders in the world. 6.8% or 1.1 million Australians are millionaires.
