Sadly, no. Our taxpayer dollars get spent on other things – like universal health care, effective gun control legislation and, more recently, education reform, among other things. Australia has its problems, but tax-supported giant electromagnets in public libraries isn't one of them.
Banned for being jealous. Maybe.

It is easy to go down into Hell;

There's the rub, the task.
