This kills the baby.

Childbirth can be brutal.

Jerrymandering is cheating.

The problem here is you compare two real issues, but you downplay one. Covid was not a flu-like illness. FFS go look at the death data. Yes…

I'll bite - can you think of one solid piece of evidence there was a 'scam' and/or a world-wide conspiracy to save lives that meant that…

Mate. Go read some statistics on the 1000s that died. Theres no big world wide conspiracy except what you make up in your head. If you’re…

You honestly think living conditions are better in the US ? Are you an American expat, deluded, or just unaware of all the contradictory…

Exactly. Regulation is key. Hopefully they’ll keep fixing the NDIS model and regulations to cut out the middle man extortion.

I'm not sure where we ended with this lol Agreed - they're not. They should be, they *could* be if reinvestment was resumed, but we know…

I don’t get your point. All these are cases of “we haven’t invested enough/properly in the public system.” This is because the LNP…

Suggest you do some reading on government “waste” and inefficiencies. It’s a lot lot less than you’d think it is in the scheme of a…

You literally just listed them. Our Medicare public health system, despite its flaws is world class in cost efficiency and care delivered.…

All those issues had nothing to do with private vs public ownership. There’s still tons of things going wrong all the time in different…

If OP has a 5br house and a car loan then we know why they’re struggling… More like buy a BYD or so now though vs a Camry.

Well we shall agree to disagree then. What you said is true up until the “350k is middle class”. If you’re on 350k individual pay,…

Predominantly wealth, yes. The top 1% of earners are NOT middle class. Thats an individual income of over 350k taxable. At that stage…

Provide evidence to counter.

A very small percentage of tax payers are worse off now vs a lot potentially better off if it works to deflate housing. Vs securing fuel…

You’re standing on a bed of falsehoods. People who earn more money do not work harder or have made the right decisions. Some have. But…

It’s not the level of taxation that’s the problem. It’s the level of costs that have inflated outside of incomes. Housing is the…

Government waste is actually very little. This is a spurious fancy that’s pulled out as an argument without basis for people with a…

Except for all the school shootings and gun violence if you have / want kids. Australia is ridiculously safe for kids compared to most of…

We have free education ? And free healthcare (although this is being eroded over time particularly by all the LNP govs) If you want all…

Yeah they (profanity) it up for younger people saving via share investing. Or middle aged people also locked out of housing.

Childcare can be 170-200 per day before rebate. They’d be on a % of that $12 per hour rebate - maybe 50pc ? That could leave $100 out of…

Good food ? You can do it easily.

It’s mental gymnastics people use when you hit 250k combined super and income and you have to pay an extra 15pc on your excess super…

Bullshit “they” do. If you’ve hit the top tax bracket you ARE ahead. Im happy to pay 47pc tax because that’s only on a portion of…

Get the butchers block from these guys https://amzn.asia/d/0bdgF8lr Much better wood than acacia for your knives. Australian made too.

GP - 1 day. Pathology test + results. 2-3 days. Cost - maybe $40 out of pocket for GP. This is the way.
