Why is childcare so expensive if child care workers are paid next to nothing? Genuine question, as I have zero familiarity with the system. edit: child care was from a few pages ago. I’m quite happy to jump on the Daisy is dumb as hell bandwagon. And in the interest of gender equality so is Caleb.

That banker article is a lot of words for "people are flawed, and they also hate other people - sometimes irrationally so.' Aunty has fallen so, so far. I rarely check the ABC for news any more. That Murdoch article from Richard Cooke is extremely pro-click if it's the one he wrote for The Monthly. Absolutely fantastic summary of the first 60 or so years of Moloch's 100 year reign.

Millennials aren’t buying healthcare *big graph showing it disproportionately benefits older people* *also millennials aren’t earning enough to worry about the Medicare levy* Definitely the millennial’s fault and not the system. Nope. No problem with the system. Working as intended. My wife works in public health and I’ll never go private. Seems like a total load of horseshit. Re: ambulance chat. For a single in Victoria it’s $46 per annum. Pretty cheap insurance against a possible $1000+ bill.

Local Labor candidate for VIC state election was at the shops this morning handing out brochures. I, of course, told her to gently caress right off and that I’d never vote Labor after what the previous Labor member did. I then lectured her for 15 minutes about how The African Gang Problem was ruining Melbourne and how I’m afraid to go outside in the evenings. Nah, I actually just smiled and politely said “no thanks” and kept walking.

Was it Hockey or Morrison that added the lovely coloured bar graphs to everyone's tax returns thinking that it would highlight how much was being paid to "bludgers" when all it really shows how much we spend on aged pensioners and middle class welfare? I think it's pretty hosed how the heading for that section is "welfare" when it should probably just be "social services" or "transfer payments" or something way less judgemental.

Periphery posted:Yet another reason why the apartment market is going to absolutely poo poo the bed: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-07-25/residents-in-apartments-slugged-thousands-to-change-power-supply/10029842 I live in a building with one of these embedded power networks. They charge above the market rate and it’s impossible to get out of. It’s hosed. But then I’m looking into some future apartments being constructed under a capped-profit and ethical/sustainable model and they’re planning on embedding their own networks. And making the claim that it’ll be green energy at 60% of the market price of fossil fuel energy. Also planning to install their own 100/100 fibre lines and charging 75% of market rates. The development is still a few years away, but it sounds good in theory.
