Wow if only there was a union for shopkeepers, distributors, and other allied employees.

If my union rep wasn't someone I've worked with, trusted, and known for years, I would've dropped my membership ages ago. Fuckin' SDA, man.

Well when you have a mass-shooting every day or so it's hard NOT to notice it.

Holy hell I hadn't seen that guy's name in years. Fairly certain I worked with a couple people that used to know him within the company I was at at the time, and...well okay I guess nothing seems all that out of the ordinary from what I did hear of him. This is especially notable since one of those people was a magician.

So wait are we supposed to be surprised that China won't listen to us about following UN declarations when we spend so much of our time flouting them ourselves?

China would ignore us (and the UN) on principle, regardless of what we have or haven't done.

Oh I know, I just found it amusing in that context.

Seems a dumb time to make this dumb claim. Has anyone else checked their tax receipts yet, because the dole accounts for gently caress all on mine. I guess that question should really be posed to the media but lol the msm giving a gently caress about journalism or research

Of the total spent on welfare on my receipt, the unemployed bar is 7.7% of total welfare spending.

( $31 out of $402, i am poor )

( aged pension is 41% )

Oh, whoops, my figures were based on 2014. THIS year's newstart cut is actually 7.5%. So, uh, lower.

Still amazing that, since Hockey started this receipt 'service', the government debt went from $257 billion in 2013 to $427 billion today. Can someone please smash these numbers into the media over and over again please?

It's kinda amazing how in a thread where almost every single person has had their avatar changed in many waves of right-wing butthurtery over the months, someone can still think they're uniquely tortured for getting an avatar change.
