RE: What the fuck is wrong with this country??

in #fucktheliberals5 years ago

It's an insane outcome. I don't see any bright future for the country while the libs are in power.

Why are you only on one meal per day? And that is an insane rent hike.

I feel incredibly powerless to change things for the better right now so am desperately trying to think of what the next steps are to take to try and bring about some positive change. At least in South Australia.

Sort:  

I'm on a disabled pension @mazzle I spend about half of each year not being able to walk. After I broke my back I became uninsurable and unemployable as a result. So with the handful of peanuts I get each week food has been a luxury item for years.

Now my rent is being increased by over 1/3 so I don't know if I'll be able to survive. It was housing commission but they've just privatised it (probably to some government insider or one of his mates) and screwed the rent up over 33%. I haven't seen a real rent increase for ten years, I only find out my pension has had an increase when I get a letter from the housing dept. informing me that my rent has risen by the exact amount of the increase, so any increase in the pension goes straight back to the government. They even take a large percentage of the so called energy rebate.

All those years I risked my life in some of the most horrendous conditions imaginable building this countries infrastructure and paying 80K plus each year in tax was a joke, now I'm treated like I'm not welcome in this country.

That certainly sounds like some dodgy insider deals designed to bleed government funds to a buddy. What a load of shit.

Sorry you're having to deal with the end result of a long line of dodgy deals.
