We didn't even have a surplus, we were already $57 billion in deficit and that "stimulus package" landed us an extra $10 billion deficit.
The $900 was given out to people to spend at hopefully-australian-owned-businesses to make it LOOK like our economy was plugging through when really it was about to collapse in the GFC too.
