The title of this thread is most revealing.
Did you get anything? Wink

I would hope what most people "got" is a chance to approach our great country with a "spirit of contribution".

Personally, i got a new bill to pay on my high income super contributions Cheesy

.

This is not a problem.

Everything good we create will be attacked and there is a cost to defending it.

I thought scott produced a fairly good budget and , now, undoubtedly, malcolm will win the next election.

But there is still this terrible "neediness" in the australian population.

A neediness to blame the government, big business, the banks, the military industrial complex, bad luck, their boss...for their own failures in life.
they always leave one thing off their lists...themselves.

Everyone born in australia or migrating to australia has a SUPER ABUNDANCE of resources...more resources then any people that have ever lived.
They should drop to their knees and weep with gratitude every morning.

If you arent doing well in australia, it is not due to lack of resources, it is due to your own lack of resourcefulness.
No government can give this to you and anyone who would look to the government to solve any of their problems has a deeply flawed narrative.
they are truly lost Cheesy

They should drop to their knees and weep with gratitude every morning.

not quite - I never got help from anyone.
Everything I have has been paid for by working myself to death.

Over 2 years ago I was unemployed for 10 months & never received a single cent from Centerlink -
nothing - not even a health card
after 22 years of working in a job..
After being back in the workforce for 2 years I'm back on my feet
from my own hard efforts.

they must live in millionaires row.....as pensioners rates are reduced..... and if thats what you have to pay then thats what you have to pay.....

if they had to climb a heap of stairs to get to their bedroom they would downsize...

rates are not the only thing pensioners HAVE to pay for..

No - that's an ordinary house in Springvale - way away from the
top suburbs of Melbourne.
Actually - it's not a pensioner - it's someone who can't work
because they injured their back at work &
have received no DSP & no compensation.
They are living by redrawing on their mortgage.

thats a totally different thing and you know it bobs.. stop giving us oldies a bad name....it is tough on dsp.. I grant you you have to cut your cloth I am afraid...lets be honest we are lucky to have DSP in the first place....

He's not on the DSP.

He gets nothing.
He's slowly losing his house by redrawing on his mortgage to live.

You have to be like Christopher Reeve - sucking out of a straw
while in a wheel chair to get the DSP now.

It's a big city out there & it's a tough ride.

In truth there is not a whole lot that pee sized Aussie can do about it no matter who has their hands on the levers. US, UK, most of Europe, Japan and now China showing some wobbly signs.

Best we can hope for is keep the fallout as small as possible.
