Government Subsidy Policy?

← The One Question That Can Reform the Childcare Sector?

Government subsidies support childcare and essential healthcare services, but without transparent, measurable feedback, these funds are often misdirected or wasted.

The financial losses are significant. Childcare subsidies leak hundreds of millions each year through fraud and administrative errors. Medicare fraud is estimated at $1.5–$3 billion annually, and the NDIS loses around $2 billion a year, with some estimates reaching $6 billion.

Clear, verifiable feedback loops can help ensure funding aligns with real community needs and delivers better outcomes for families, patients, and service providers.

Question:

Government subsidies for childcare and other healthcare services should be linked to transparent, community-driven feedback loops that measure real outcomes? (Agree/Disagree)

The PByT surveys represent a rolling snapshot of global sentiment from real people whose identity has been verified. The results can be analyzed in a variety of ways to get a better understanding of key issues utilizing Bayesian statistics - a mathematical concept that updates beliefs in light of new data or evidence.

As a result, these surveys have the potential to be the most definitive resources on some of the most critically important issues of modern times and serve as the basis for the idea of "open democracy."
