No, the HAFF in it's original form was absolutely fucking terrible, but the Greens got concessions and $3 billion for immediate use on public and social housing (a neoliberals scam to make more corporate parasite landlords)

"WhO bRaInWaShEd YoU?"
Because I live on Labor's fucked abusive JobSeeker payment, since there's no free way to get on disability, I have plenty of life fucking experience to say what I need to about what Labor and the Liberals have done to me, hand in hand.

TARGETING PEOPLE IN POVERTY FOR DEBT RECOVERY IS SCAB BEHAVIOR NO MATTER WHO DOES IT

I don't even know how you can seriously say that shit, Australian Labor opened offshore concentration camps in Papua New Guinea and on Nauru, they're still using Nauru for their racist immigration policies. As social democratic as murdering communists with the nazis.

It's your "social democrats" that punish me for being unemployable. Fuck Australia and fuck you.

Greens overall vote went up last I heard, it just wasn't in the seats they needed

Without the Greens, there would be no money for public housing, just more private "social housing" landlords.

This is a funny thing to say when Labor's supporting a whole industry of parasitic "job service providers" to undermine workers conditions by making welfare awful to live on.

Well one of us got blocked, so I presume he thought you were in the Greens

Should have replaced it with some new young talent who can have the space to independently critique these neoliberal clowns

That superannuation literally only benefits the rich?

Demonstrably untrtue when Labor laid the foundation for robodebt by targeting welfare recipients
"A new data matching initiative between Centrelink and the Australian Taxation Office is expected to claw back millions of dollars from welfare recipients who have debts with the Australian Government."

Labor literally went into deals with him to stitch up the political situation to hopefully guarantee them more returns, open your fucking eyes, deadbeat political speculators

You're splitting hairs, that part is entirely beside the point to workers being forced to participate in the finance industry, be it union branded or a bank, it still benefits parasites who don't do any real work.

Is that like when Labor promised to protect whistleblowers and prosecuted both of them? I never saw Fawlty Towers

That freak should have been visited by the Kennedy Curse.

Meanwhile, the aged pension which was a guarantee for the entire working class falls behind because some workers were worth more than others. My late father never had more than $10k super because he was disabled.

What's incorrect about it? That 9% of my former income was stashed out of my hands, and then my super provider invested it in profitable ventures, which can literally only be profitable because they do not pay their workers all they are worth. This is basic capitalism.

Labor and LNP are exactly the same on welfare.

Stage 3 tax cuts? Why would cutting the taxes of the rich help me? That's just neoliberal bullshit.

My medications aren't on the PBS, and have literally gone up year over year until last year because the ones that are on the concession rate can't be bought in advance. Minimum wage helps none who won't be hired, same for wage theft. They only did anything for housing because the Greens made them.

I am, Labor have done nothing but keep us in poverty while rolling out welfare policies which actively harm us, like Workforce Australia, and allowing income management to be rolled out by regulation. Not to mention their very real failures on robodebt, which they laid the foundation of in 2011

Are you just a doctor in that you wrote some bullshit or can I find your registration to make a complaint about your ableism?

it also undermines a decent retirement for all, the foundational ideal of the aged and disability pensions

Forcing workers to invest in their own exploitation and enriching the financial services industry as opposed to a decent pension for all

Because it literally only benefits the rich by forcing workers to invest in their own exploitation
