I love how no one here has still explained how the Libs aren't actually out to privatize healthcare in Australia.

Crying over "Privatizing medicare" is just semantics, Healthcare under the Liberals is moving closer and closer to a user pays system. Medicare = Healthcare. Is it still false to say medicare has been privatized when the Libs plan of completely gutting medicare and forcing people onto PHI? How do you privatize medicare in any other way?

It doesn't appear to be coming from Medicare, and the message isn't false.

No fraud.

Sorry, Booby.

It came up as the sender = Medicare on all our mobiles.

My God, why do you think we're still so angry about it here???

My husband in particular who ALWAYS VOTES LABOR and who voted Liberal for the 1st time in his life in the last Federal election in protest.

Don't worry Lisa,
there will be a trial & Shorty will at least have to answer some hard questions.

I know that I was out of pocket by a lot of money last year
even though I had private basic hospital cover & medicare.

He is a distasteful union thug.

He needs to go. Post haste.

My husband reckons that he was like that even at Uni. He was not liked by many Laborites there.

You sure you want to talk user-pay system?

Hmmmm?

Think very carefully before you answer that question.

It will most likely be a non-event.

Shorty must have so much dirt on the union bosses that he is able to blackmail them into letting him stay when the rubbish tin is the right place for him.

The LNP want Shorty to stay as he is unelectable as there is so much union corruption slime dripping off him and his creepy shifty mug turns voters off.

Making fake MediCare cards is simply FRAUD and the penalty is $5000. This was discussed on 2GB.

Last I heard it lost around $16 billion/yr.

Yeah....I'm sure anyone and everyone would want to invest in an organization like that lol.
