http://www.bigpondmoney.com...You forgot Australia:<br /><br />http://www.bigpondmoney.com.au/inactive-bank-accounts-raided<br /><br />Our female Prime Minister, who took a $100 BILLION budget surplus and has turned it into $10s of billions deficit.<br /><br />In an attempt to even out the accounts in an election year (they won't get re-elected) they're doing a cash grab on inactive accounts. This was always in law, but it used to be seven years, now it's only three.<br /><br />They estimate that it'll net them about $750 million of private money that, apparently no one wants and the country needs.<br /><br />BTW Our Feminist PM and her Feminist Governor General brought in the Australian equivalent of VAWA, so I don't think many men will be sorry to see her go.Positive Thinkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01425156713051300192noreply@blogger.com
