ScreamingLlama posted:we have actual economic policies as opposed to the Greens just belching out clouds of weed smoke like the factories they profess to hate A well informed post which compares and contrasts the economic policies of the Greens and the Democrats. If you don't want to be made fun of, make a case, don't just say poo poo without backing it up. This also applies to people ragging on the Democrats.

Graic Gabtar posted:I just need you to explain to me how I won't be paying more tax under that proposal. What is your gross income per annum? How much do you voluntarily contribute to superannuation? That determines whether you will be paying more or less tax.

^^^ If you're earning over 300k you're paying the same.

Graic Gabtar posted:Interesting, but anyone over $80K is worse off you say? That's still a lot of punters. Note really that many. code:
So rough guess at about 19% of Australians will pay more tax on their super. and 81% will pay the same or less. Given wages growth has been pretty flat since 2011 I suspect the stats would be similar now.

Fruity Gordo posted:And remember that that's taxable income, so add $18,000 to all of those incomes on the list for the full annual salary before tax. I don't think so, it didn't read that way to me. ATO refers to Taxable income below 19k here: https://www.ato.gov.au/Rates/Individual-income-tax-rates/

Internet in Australia is bad. The NBN while expensive and perhaps uncosted would have been a good investment in infrastructure. It's also been really good to see Gillian Triggs actually hitting back at the government and specifically Ian Macdonald for being terrible.

i got banned posted:It's pretty loving common sense. The more disposable income you erode from citizens the more you erode consumer confidence. It's adorable that you think Hockey, Abbott and Co. give a single poo poo about the actual economy. Slashing welfare, local spending, medical services and skyrocketing education costs are the easiest way possible to tank the economy. Meanwhile, buy more planes from our friends in America! Pay polluters to pollute and don't tax their profits! Next step, remove penalty rates and further erode the ability of poor people to buy anything.

Also regarding the death spiral of the utilities industry, maybe that's why there's such a big push for power and infrastructure privatisation, sell it all to chumps before it becomes worthless. Dear Greens, Please get elected, privatise the entire electricity industry and infrastructure, then immediately heavily subsidise batteries and solar panels for all Australian homes.

The message Australians should take from Gallipoli is "Don't gently caress with the turkish". Drunk Australians make it very clearly how poorly we've internalised this lesson every time they start hurling abuse at a kebab shop owner. In the words of someone wiser than me: "Guess we forgot."

norp posted:As a graduate this can not be quoted enough I think only those who have experienced it firsthand can possibly comprehend how much of a colossal shitshow that whole place is. The university that retrenched a lecturer's wife and is surprised when he also resigns. One of my friends had some of her core units in engineering lectured by a PHD student (illegal) who wasn't even studying the field he was lecturing in (just dumb).

Kim Jong ill posted:Not only is this not illegal, it's incredibly common. I'm not sure how you came to this conclusion? I was pretty sure that in order to be a lecturer (not a tutor, demonstrator etc) for an undergraduate subject you needed a postgraduate qualification. Here for example where it specifically calls out needing postgrad study.

Kim Jong ill posted:Yeah that's at best a recommendation on behalf of the university, not a legal requirement. We have several lecturers in our school that don't have graduate degrees. Hell one of them is so highly sought after he was just poached by another uni in the state. Huh, for some reason I thought it was a requirement of whatever certification board or something that students had to be taught by someone with a higher qualification than their own but seems I am wrong.

Kim Jong ill posted:The aforementioned highly sought after lecturer has consistently taken topics that the academics suck at teaching and completely turned therm around. A postgraduate degree is in no way a certification that someone is capable of effectively teaching and vice versa. I never thought nor said qualification was related to aptitude, I thought it was a requirement and was one of the reasons I'd never considered teaching at a university. I didn't mean to impugn your good teacher
