The fact is Labor started mean testing Pensioners AND raised the pension age...
It will be because of them people will have to work till they are 90 and not the Libs as John falsely stated...........
@HBS Guy @DonDeeHippy How are your pensions funded in Australia? In the U.S., Social Security is funded by a 12.4% payroll tax. The employer pays half, and the employee pays half.
We have a compulsory superannuation levy, started at 9% and supposed to be about 12% now, the increases being part of any wage rises. Libs don’t like this, never increase the levy. People without enough super get a pension paid by the federal government.
Now it looks like they want to scrap the system—union run the funds, give better returns than you get with super from banks etc.

I've been with 2 union run super funds and both had the lowest return and most hidden fee's of 4 i've had over the years... Like everything else with Australian unions corrupt to the core.....

The only people getting rich from superannuation are the politicians who are bribed to support compulsory superannuation, the fund managers, superannuation salesmen, and general superannuation fund employees.
Compulsory superannuation is another rip-off and a tax on the workers.

No rednecks or conservatives were at risk in this video.
The one in the Thai police station where a new cop talks down a man with a knife is a demonstration of cultural differences.
In the USA the guy with the knife would have been shot to death with a full magazine of bullets in 5 seconds.
Nice story about a young Australian girl doing good things.

Girl rescues shark stuck on Tasmanian beach during low tide
When Abby Gilbert's daughter picked up a shark trapped in a shallow rockpool, she knew it was in safe hands. After all, the 11-year-old had grown up with a shark rather than a teddy bear as her bedtime toy.

I had a real senior moment this arvo.
I keep my cards ie plastic money, Drivers License Medicare Card etc etc... in a small flip holder... and I went shopping... in a hurry, after being to the library, and then the local postal agency, I then thought.. I need a couple of things . I just took a list in my pocket, and my card thingy in my hand. I intended to buy a fabric bag as well. . I do a quick run around... Dog Bones, Mineral water, UHT MILK all x 2 plus sweet little bananas....
GOT to the check out and NO Card holder... OH MY.. the heart rate went up... I did a repeat of the shop, nothing.. went to my car, to see if somehow I'd left it there.. NO.. went back post.. no... back into shop.. another scan around , even looked under the racks.. NO...
Back to car.. NO ... back into supermarket .. did the rounds again.. then a young man from the store came up to me as I waited to say no good... and he said is it a small rectangle? YES!!!
It's been handed in.... is this it? YES!!
Oh what a relief.!!!
I asked who handed it in.. he said a guy in a HI-Vis vest.
Oh I do wonder .. things like this do happen to me..... if it wasn't the truckie.. whose wallet I'd found out in an empty car parking place, and took it in to the store , only to encounter a man in Hi -Vis as I was going back to my car, looking very concerned..
I'd briefly looked at his license, which said he was a truckie.. so I said to him in passing.. are u a truckie and lost your wallet...
YES!!
It's OK // i handed it in to the Counter...

GOOD GRIEF !
I wonder you didn't post it thus.!!
Divided loyalties mean you are true to none. ( I think I just made that up... but it is true.)
You spend so much time posting here about OzPol... probably more than on any other thing.
You missing home..??

Huh.?
I'm talking about YOUR self-esteem, if you want to put it that way.
YAY good ol Cods, still going strong.
That is not my point and your passive aggression is not appropriate .
Guess my posts have been pretty straight forward about your continual involvement with this supposed RIVAL.
Not so bad then.?? Got an agreement going..?
I prefer honesty, and I can be ummm totally off-track , but I don't get it.
One minute you are slagging them off, the next ..? , you have your OWN TOPIC there. ?
DO YOU.? That is the impression I gain from you .. will I check it? go to OzPol ?
No I won't.!!
Please the question highlighted above in red.
I apologise for my directness, but I don't apologise for my queries.
I'd appreciate an honest reply. You may PM me if you prefer.
