Are you still accusing me of something I never said?

 I think you have been drinking at the last chance saloon and have lost your comprehension...again

Well actually the distribution of taxes IS a contest amongst the recipients. Some win (mining comoanies), some are about to lose (indigenous communities).

 

Anyway, what tone? I thought you would thank me for coming up with such a logical solution to the dilemma you seem to have about what your taxes should pay for. You should THANK me lol. Smiley LOL


No, it is and always has been about the number of people serviced. Small towns had to and still do I assume, have to have a certain number of students (in their schools) in order to stay open. Same deal with medical, need the patients or just not happening. This is not an issue about Mining communities vs Aborginal communities. It's about the bottom line finances, just like it's always been.

Small schools ( in towns, small settlements)  with not enough students on the roll, if they are to be closed, there is usually another school not too far away (less than an hour?) the children can be sent on a bus to. The only other option would be boarding school.

You blew yourself up and then tried to blame me. You made  hostile assumptions and got caught out.

are you guys still fighting over this?

 

I just had a vision of all these Aboriginals sitting round their campfires, laptops in hand, laughing about this thread.

 

Peace.

Yes. But are some suggesting that schooling and doctors should be supplied at government expense for people who choose to live off the grid, so to speak? Would that apply to non indigenous people too?

Yeah. Take off your tinfoil hat. Schools with less that the right amount of pupils in rural areas have been closed down because they weren't cost effective for decades. I don't see that the aboriginal community should be treated any differently. You chose the lifestyle you want. Good on you. Expecting government handouts/and or infrastructure to do so. No.

Regardless of genetics.

obviously you jave a problem with comprhension. I only mentiond taxes because many on here kept parrotting that all services are free, hospitals, education, RFDS, and all other welfare benefits are free.

 

I only mentiond that all those services are not free, the money for all those welfare and services is paid for by working taxpayers and companies.

 

You worked yourself up and got completely confused and then you troll back to try to justify your assault on me.

 

Well your are wrong on all your accusations, wrong on all your assumptions and your confusion allowed you to go off half cocked.

 

As I said before, calm down.

 


They are free to the consumer in remote areas, and should remain that way.
