l remember back in the recession early 90's if you told someone you were on newstart they would feel sorry for you and hope you find a job, these days if you told someone you are on newstart thye look at you as if you are some sort of criminal , drug addict or rorter , the media and polticans love to whip up hatred and prejudice against people on welfare payments, l guess theres no law against the vilification of people on welfare so they can say what they like

bunyipI am sorry for you but don't talk to folk like that. The reality is that real jobs have been destroyed in Australia AND there really are more than 700,000 as in 700 thousand people on Newstart competing for about 200,000 jobs. Ask them if they like the Hunger Games movies!

Ask them if they like the Hunger Games movies! Denis-NFAI don't think bunyip spoke to anyone like that. It was an anology re the difference in chronology and the vilification thing , a statement of fact. Not something he'd actually done personally. P.S. I was going to edit your post to read:- "I am sorry for you but people shouldn't talk to folk like that." Didn't want to put words in your mouth though.

The really stupid part is that especially with bank interest rates at al all-time low, it is easy for people to remove money from their bank account and hide it somewhere, and create a plausible excuse for doing so. Why leave it in there is you're getting next to no interest ?

It was as bear might have corrected. It is a pain in the neck if you are surrounded by 'lovely folk' that go on and on about people on welfare/newstart are dole bludgers. In the 1980's some political smart arz even gave a number of dole bludgers! My response was if they knew the number then they know who are the dole bludgers so show me one.

You're being too hard on yourself nomadic. BTW, I've never heard of reverse D's, I think you just made that up; I have however heard of double D's, but they look more like "OO". Cheers bear
