This arrangement was made in 1998 under Liberal Treasurer Peter Costello.
Costello was on an early incarnation of the AIJAC paid trip to Israel as a student leader in the late 1970s.

Despite important exceptions, like Medicare, Australia has chosen to imitate capitalist approach of America - a dog eat dog, survival of the fittest, winner takes all focus.
