He keeps his irrational anger confined to this sub, therefore I have no problem with him.

Quote from: Tex Perkins on Today at 12:11:28 AMI'd rather point out that you shot yourself in the foot by tacitly admitting in your post above that not everyone pays the same for medical treatment in that third world hovel you are so unjustly proud of. Since you admit that not everyone pays the same, DKG's, Frood's and my own assertion stands; your Muddlecare system is inherently corrupt for charging some more than others for the same crappy service.
Precisely. This discussion is over acknowledged that not everybody is charged the same price for the same services.

Your home country's state media doesn't share your views.

Whatever Blazor is doing, I am certain he is enjoying himself. He always manages to have time for a good time.

Stick to your sticky paged comic books and pre 70's junk silver, Johomo.

Quote from: Biggie Smiles on May 03, 2024, 11:53:03 PMI mean don't we have bigger things to worry about than the affordability of food for the lower income families in the state?

There are mens public bathrooms which do not provide taxpayer funded tampons !

and even more horrifying, there exists, in many areas of this country public women's bathrooms which do not have urinals!! Can you believe such a travesty of justice? So what is a transman do to when he needs to pee in front of little girls? Do his business sitting down in a toilet stall like the other women in that bathroom are doing?
Don't be ridiculous, he should be afforded carte blanche to piss in the bushes with the rest of the weirdos and tweakers. Don't you be abrogating his rainbow rights you white supremacist bigot!!!


Seventeen dollars for three fillet-o-fishes? It's a buck and a half more in Australia (source) and their minimum wage earners receive a hundred dollars a week less in their paypackets than their US cousins. And I don't see Aussies screaming on TikTok about getting ripped off by the Golden Arches during Lent.

Bitch needs to shut her hole and go hungry methinks. There are starving niggers in Australia (or Ethiopia mk II as I like to call it) who'd give their eye teeth for a fillet-o-fish at any price.

Especially if it came with a 44 gallon drum of Exxon's finest woobla. Tampon dispensers be damned, you can just let that shit slither down your legs, gives the flies something to feed on.

Quote from: Shen Li on Today at 01:07:39 AMI know a lot of Aussies in Singapore.  They say cracks are appearing in their health care system too. Not as bad as in Canada, where provincial governments are facing bankruptcy just to delay it's inevitable collapse, but still.
In Australia it is customary to simply jack up the taxes and add more bureaucratic red tape. Cigarette smokers for example are presently paying anything up to the equivalent of 100 USD a day for their habit with the excuse that it's to pay for the increased strain they will put on the system in coming years. To keep the tobacco and Big Pharma lobbies happy, changes have been made at the constitutional level (and without referendum for the Australian people) to make the safer alternative of vaping onerous to the point of near impossibility.

You are also not allowed to "grow your own" as you are in Canada and the fines and associated penalties are far in excess than growing an equivalent amount of cannabis or substances considered illicit by order of magnitude. One is left with the overwhelming conclusion the game is less about caring for the health of its citizens and more about maintaining the kinds of protectionist rackets that would make your average South American socialist shithole blush. Australia is as corrupt as they come and its people incentivized to turn to a thriving black market to make ends meet. Its entire way of life it set to collapse in on itself, it's only a matter of "when".

I would not like to be a retiree there when it does. The pension system the boomers paid into under the promise they too might collect on in their winter years collapsed long ago, the superannuation schemes instituted to prop it up are being rorted in weird and wonderful ways by successive governments. The Medicare system is no different, indeed it was effectively scrapped once already back when it was known as Medibank, the government of the day deciding to privatize the public and not for profit health system people had been paying tax levies to.

It happened once, it can happen again. Probably right around the time the amount of "died suddenly" cases gets too big to ignore and the victim class too overtaxed to pay for it. Do not be fooled by Caskur's optimistic jingoism and instead look to her increasingly strident shrieks regarding how her state's wealth is being milked by the greedy eastern states; there's a reason why the Australian dollar is collapsing and one look at the criminals Australians meekly put up with election after election tells you all you need to know.

Quote from: TheProwler on May 03, 2024, 04:08:25 AMMy wife transferred $30,000 into her trading account today.

We got too much cash kicking around.

I might buy another car.

What kind of car do you drive, Senile J?

I could throw $30,000 inta the stock market if I wanted T he Prowler

However....I don't know if this is the best time to be throwing money into the markets. I keep hearing that there will be a crash or no less a correction in 2025 after the US elections are over.


Now of course, these are only predictions by some forecasters.
They are also frequently wrong as well.

Nevertheless I'd still rather wait 'til 2025/26 to see where things really are headed and that will provide a clearer picture.

If it all falls, there may be some deals to be had.
No sense in buying too high ifya can buy it low at a later date.

Planning to be a car sometime. Didn't wanna spend too much.
Hopefully I'll get something which is economical and reliable.
Gonna look around.
