The proof of the pudding will be when the debt starts to go down, not forgetting that the 500 billion is just a limit, a buffer.
I guess that fact is being ignored though, it's contrary to the agenda of the complainants.
It depends where you live.
In the American system one billion is 1,000,000,000 and a trillion is 1,000,000,000,000 so one trillion is one thousand times one billion.
In the British system one billion is 1,000,000,000,000 and one trillion is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 so one trillion is one million times one billion.

That would make it a matriarchal left leaning Board with a tenuous grip on research and economics. Hardly a microcosm when one looks at the larger picture:
Primary Vote Seats
Labor ALP 33.4% 55
Coalition 45.6% 90
