Australia's Senate has passed the Labor government's A$42bn ($27bn; £19bn) stimulus plan after the bill was blocked during an earlier vote.

Yeah, fuckin swell. You all know as well as I do that all that money isn't going to the same type of things that the US stimulus is going to. Help me list all of the things the Australian Stimulus plan are going for.

Here are a few that I know of:

40 cases of Fosters for each Australian citizen
10 kangaroos for each Australian citizen
5 cases of the Crocodile Dundee Trilogy

Fosters is the largest beer and wine company in Australia, you dumb fuck.

Coopers is the true Australian beer. I couldn't even FIND Fosters anywhere in Adelaide.

Claiming one beer is the "The true Australian beer", as an American, when i've never heard someone from Australia claim this, is kinda silly. That being said, when did you go to Australia, what for, and why Adelaide?

Went last year for the Adelaide Fringe Festival with UNLV. We put on several different shows while there. I will be returning in 2 weeks for another 10-day stint.

As for Coopers being their true beer, not only did the multitude of Australians that I attended with last year claim this, but it was wildly supported by the options in bars. I'd find Coopers on tap almost anywhere (like Bud Light here) but never found Fosters not only lacking the tap option, but even available in bars.
