They've already done articles about how many DSP recipients living overseas, so if I'd put money on that being targeted first.

You get kicked off DSP if you stay overseas longer than a couple of months. So technically you can't actually do that.

The point below it seemed funnier.
'If the varied greatly during the year, the result may be incorrect'

Sound like it would describe anyone between jobs and relying on new start...

Again and again the Greens have fallen into the trap of believing anti-capitalist, anti-establishment politics aren’t popular with the electorate. But as people continue to suffer under austerity and consecutive conservative governments, this myth quickly starts to unravel. Young people inheriting a broken welfare system, a broken housing market, years of unemployment and catastrophic climate change realise the failures of capitalism. They realise the political elite can no longer smooth out market inconsistencies and that the system has always been rigged against them. For both Gen Y and Millennials, capitalism offers no future, and liberalism’s refusal to address the structural problems leading to this bleak horizon offers no hope.

The Greens were always bad. Push Left Renewal.

Also note how the process is to sell the debt to private enterprise at the earliest opportunity.

It's agile, disruptive and innovative.

They typically broadcast big political press conferences live.

I just came by to laugh at how the outrage over this Australia Day lamb ad is apparently because it's too politically correct, ok bye.

I thought last year the campaign manager was talking up how great the ads were. So I guess instead of doubling down on political incorrectness, they've decided to flip the script and do an edgy politically correct ad. That way they can still cause controversy and drive 'engagement', while avoiding allegations of exploiting something sacred for personal gain (while still doing exactly that).

organisational units in the APS have staffing limits, and if you go over the senior executive gets very mad because it looks bad for them. contractors don't count towards those staffing limits. why? ~john howard~

I'll have you know that John Howard was a good man, and perhaps Australia's greatest leader.

Uber isn't actually any cheaper once you factor in the amount being subsided through operating losses. You can't keep losing $3 billion a year on $5.5 billion of revenue.
