DrPossum posted:what the gently caress is a health star? Australian government initiative to make it easier to compare the healthiness of packaged foods. The scheme was developed in consultation with major food and beverage companies of course so it may actually do more harm than good. Don't have time to go into it now but it's flawed on pretty much every level.

Larry Parrish posted:i dont like the idea of basic income on its own because it doesnt make any incentive for the corporations to actually offer any more or any better jobs or wages. that said its not a bad thing. its just yet another half-rear end social democratic idea that sort of patches a leak but doesnt do anything else The way I heard it was that if people don't have to take poo poo jobs, corporations will have to make the jobs and/or wages better to attract labour

Also the transport system is ratshit so there's less chance you can buy somewhere affordable and get public transport to where you work. drat, I'm trying to buy a house within an hour of Melbourne and I thought that sucked Turns out I can't even bail out to NZ

I enjoy John Oliver's show just as an entertaining method of presenting a story and highlighting problems. Whatever his personal opinions on solutions happen to be, he probably wouldn't have a tv show on a commercial network if he advocated for the actual ones.

We have Vietnamese restaurants that usually have a generic name followed by the year it was opened. Saigon 81 etc. Also some that open a second location and just chuck a 2 on the end. Great pho at Huong Vuong 2
