Diary of our stinking Govt.

As it's more than 100 days now, it has been suggested that a new thread was needed.  The current govt has been breaking promises and telling lies at a rate so fast it's hard to keep up.Woman Happy

 

This below is worrying, "independent" pffft, as if your own doctor is somehow what? biased, it's ridiculous. So far there is talk of only including people under a certain age 30-35, for now. Remember that if your injured in a car, injured at work or get ill, you too might need to go on the DSP. They have done a similar think in the UK with devastating consequences.

 

and this is the 2nd time recently where the Govt has referred to work as welfare???? So when you go to work tomorrow (or tuesday), just remember that's welfare.

Independent doctors could be called in to reassess disability pensioners, Federal Government says

 

The Federal Government is considering using independent doctors to examine disability pensioners and assess whether they should continue to receive payments.

 

Currently family doctors provide reports supporting claims for the Disability Support Pension (DSP).

But Social Services Minister Kevin Andrews is considering a measure that would see independent doctors reassess eligibility.

 

"We are concerned that where people can work, the best form of welfare is work," Mr Andrews said at a press conference.

Since coming to power, neo liberal denialists have been appointed to every advisory role and, regardless of their lack of expertise, their voice has drowned out that of the scientists.

and again for those hard of hearing (or should that be wilfully ignorant) - an abuse of the language - well that is something the LNP excel at.

 

Economists reject Abbott crisis claims

 

Leading economists have rejected the federal government's claims of a ''budget emergency", saying it is only a medium-term "problem" rather than a crisis, which should be dealt with sooner rather than later.

Re: Diary of our stinking Govt.

Huh? What happened to “Open for Business.” Oh, that’s right, Australia is closing businesses one after another, as yet more coal mines closed in NSW, unprecedented says the unions with no positive outlook in the future, and a major iron ore producer going into receivership, all with job prospects of unemployment higher than the US.

So now it’s get Australia working. A government that has been in power for 10 months, the “Adults”, and have achieved nothing but cuts, destruction and shutting down things. I don’t think we need to get Australia working, as productivity figures show, the workers are labouring and producing, we need to get businesses working without the tax payers generous handouts, but most of all we need to get the government working and the only way that’s going to be achieved is by changing it for another.

"there will be a graph shortly......"

I try to keep it simple for this thread,  in trend with the many copied  doctored images and "citizen lournalists" , so:  not many graphs.

 

Meanwhile more chuckles please, C&P's of lawyers at sea,  or economists advocating nil net carbon emissions with no costings or science.
