Also, his partner Dr. Harriet Fraad has started a new podcast called Capitalism Hits Home, which focuses on how capitalism affects our family relationships, mental health etc. If you like Economic Update, give Capitalism Hits Home a listen, too.

The Before Times posted:Quick question: what is the best union for IT professionals (specifically programmers and/or game devs) to join? An acquaintance thinks there's no union for them but I'm psure that's wrong. I doubt there is one. I haven't been able to find any unions for things like help desk/support which is where the solidarity is really needed. I don't think there's much in terms of unionism in the fygm world of programming.

From theg liveblog: https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/live/2018/oct/15/coalition-morrison-joyce-coal-polls-politics-live quote:Labor senator Kimberley Kitching has given her own spin on Labor’s new policy to remove exemptions that allow discrimination by religious schools against gay staff. They had half a populist policy that would pass with bipartisan support and they're already walking it back lmao. Oh you can't fire someone for being gay, but if someone being gay contravenes your religion, well, fire, fire away!

Count Chocula posted:Australia’s coziness with the gambling industry is like America’s coziness with the gun lobby. Sure, make gambling legal, but shouldn’t there be restrictions on advertising? Shouldn’t pokies be banned? The entire industry exists to take money from vulnerable people. Absolutely. Agreed. It seems like the laws have been relaxed over the last decade or so because I'm seeing so much more gambling related advertising each year. It's hosed. My dad is a gambling addict (restricted to horse bets on good days) and I just thank his failing eyesight and general boomerness that he hasn't discovered all of those gambling/betting apps. His pokies period was a nightmare

JBP posted:tax - alp say they will keep low income but gently caress high income breaks Ah okay so yeah more of the same, or wind back the clock. Incrementalism is dumb, both parties are keen on the same neo lib bullshit strategy. There isn't any difference between the two parties philosophically, economically or socially. We're just tricked into thinking that the ALP actually stand for something different, when they clearly don't, and are just waiting for the Libs to lose govt, as opposed to actually winning it. Gonna keep voting Greens 1, ALP Last-1, and LNP Last, but gently caress me it's frustrating having an opposition that isn't actually interested in shifting the Overton window of this country, rather than appearing not to be incompetent (while being loving useless)

I mean it's nice that ostensibly the ALP has the support of unions but it's nothing more than a namecheck when you have the official ALP policy be to vote for the TPP as-is rather than actually listen to the unions advice that this fucks over workers. But it's okay, the ALP brand is still pro-union so they can run on that without actually having to propose their own policies, or challenge the policies of the LNP that gently caress workers over.

JBP posted:"There isn't any difference between the two parties philosophically, economically or socially." I dunno mate, why even want an election then, leave the libs in charge forever since it will be the same, should that be your genuine belief. Because the Greens exist, and should be in Opposition, and not Labor? Why do you keep thinking on strictly two party terms. There is no point in an opposition party that largely agrees with the incumbent. It's not opposition, it's going along to get along

Don Dongington posted:You're pretty far off here. While they may not satisfy our collective desire for full communism, now, the ALP are demonstrably better at actual governance of the country, appropriate use of government money, while also actively at least trying to improve the circumstances of the working class, fix education, and deliver useful infrastructure, even if they are miserable at looking after refugees and the indigenous population. Citation needed. Talking federal ALP here, not state. There is a huge demand for federal icac because it turns out that actually no, people don't trust the MPs of either party to use money appropriately, and act honestly when carrying on Government. An ALP government cannot be working to improve the circumstances of the working class, fix education, deliver useful infrastructure and support tax breaks for business owners, reductions in penalty rates, and standardised testing for kids via NAPLAN. It's not possible, it's counter intuitive bell jar fucked around with this message at 06:13 on Oct 17, 2018 |
