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.
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.
Gosh D9275, I have not seen a link to : http://theaimn.com/the-tony-abbott-art-of-lying/ for a while. Was not that a BIG favourite? The red flag : "The AIMN is a platform for citizen journalists and bloggers to write and engage in an independent media environment"
How exactly does the AIMN compare with the Jarkata Post and its unconfirmed hearsay that you linked/quoted earlier?
Out of curiosity, do you not wonder how 15 "asylum seekers" could land on Christmas Island , exist there for 3 days, and then be deported without a mention by any reliable source here? Or is it just the anti government tone that appeals regardless of authenticity?

• Promised to consult on climate change and instead delivered a carbon tax.
• Guaranteed a budget surplus and instead delivered more deficits.
• Promised jobs, and national unemployment is now 60,000 higher than when the promise was made.
• Promised to cut company tax, but, after the election, scrapped the tax cut.
• Promised to give $2.1 billion for a transport link in Western Sydney (the Epping to Parramatta rail link) and now won’t provide the money for transport in Sydney.

Et tu, Brute or would that be: Et tu, A3.
"Guaranteed a budget surplus" I missed that A3, as did the rest of the country!
A3: " He hasn't been in the area he was in the last couple of days for 10 years.. coincidence he has a bike race at same time?"
Oh gosh, "10 years", that would take us into the "forbidden" zone. Nah, thats OK because it was absolute nonsense.
More please from the Jakarta Post and/or the AIMN (research/logic optional)

That is where my post ended. Like the other post of yours (11164), clipping part of my post and adding on your own comments (repeats) is fabrication and is only done to mislead others.
