The banks don't want to allow us to cast off the shackles of financial oppression and free ourselves from wage slavery. We gave the banks their power, we have the ability to take away.
As for the Australian government being worried about or overseeing our spending. When you spend $49billion on a subpar National Broadband Network (complete by 2020), when you spend $250,000 per person per year imprisoning refugees, when you spend $122m on a same-sex marriage plebiscite when public sentiment is already clearly in favour of the "yes" vote. You lose the privilege of being able to tell me what to do with my money.
