I found this on BBC News.
Apparently the Royal Australian Navy or most likely the Defence Department paid for the breast enlargement of two female sailors setting the taxpayer back $20 000.
I don't really know what to think here.
What exactly would potentially sexier sailors help the RAN in it's fight against, umm... , last time I checked it was illegal immigration?
Unless the plan is for them to help the male sailors on their long lonely voyages away from women except those...
Ok enough of the silliness the article says that it was for psychological reasons. So I guess that it might make it a bit better then because people with psychological problems of some sort are not really the best people for the defence forces, but I still feel a little annoyed that my tax dollars went towards this.
The Defence Department is already pretty bloated, overly bureaucratic and inefficient, for all we know this money could have gone towards something better.
Why isn't this an election issue?
