A, for example, 27 year old loses their job (redundancy, not their fault) and they have to live on thin air for 6 mths before being eligible for the dole? 

I can understand that applying to an 18/19 yo who would most likely live at home with their parent(s) and at least have a roof over their head and some food.

Safer to stick to discussin the Budget, I would be disappointed if the mystery padlock got clipped on this thread.

My grand children go to school and kinder, no I am on the aged pension, I am alot older than you................any way none of your business is it.

It's public knowledge 

The government will also cut hospital funding to the states and territories. Billions slashed from hospitals.

That is a low act.

Too bad if you don't have a loving family to go back to.

That's scary.  That 27 year old is likely to have very young children and would be looking for a new job.  Not all redundancies have money attached, especially when so many people work on a contract basis with no redundancy clause applicable.
