As he should, like all the critics are saying, how they hell is this not being means tested!
Very much reeks of vote buying. “Hey Australia, look at all this free money we are passing on to you.”
I mean, thanks I guess, but I am already getting a massive benefit from the stage 3 tax cuts. Why not take that $3.5 BILLION and invest it in something that will keep energy prices down for ever, rather than band-aid over it for 12 months. By all means, give the rebate to low income earners and those in real need of it, but people who are not struggling in the slightest should not be getting the rebate.
I guess the government have to play to the lowest common denominator in the voting base. Not all Australians understand that this money isn’t actually free and it will cost us in the long run (every subsequent budget for the next decade is predicted to be in deficit rather than surplus).
Queenslanders are also getting a $1000 rebate from the state government. So in total, $1300 off our energy bills in the next financial year.
Kind of shocked the federal government are giving $300 to every household.
You can also buy the music directly, if you don’t want the subscription, and then self-host it on Plex or Jellyfin, etc.
“Everything is affordable if we choose to care about it”.
That’s a fantastic quote right there.
It would be nice if “smart” home devices fell under this category. If the devices software is the reason that the device fails to continue to work, then they should be held responsible, and made to remedy a fix…or full refund.
Oh yes, make sure to verify via the email sent.
When people say the dinosaurs are extinct;
“Nah bro, they just evolved. Have you seen the Cassowary?!”
That Redback section got me good. Was browsing this article on my phone. Didn’t mind the spiders crawling on the screen, until the one in the bottom right looked like it crawled out from under my hand. Nearly threw my phone away 😮💨
Thanks, I will put Mint on a USB, along side some others as well. I have fond memories of Mint, as it was my first distro.
