@SnoogThe@OneTheRed@Ausbobsmit Canβt stand the performative nature of the outrage. All the journalists wringing their hands, the opposition pollies. Pretending they show perfect decorum at all times. Spare me the bollocks
@OneTheRed@SnoogThe@Ausbobsmit I was siting on stage with a workmate, waiting for the panel to start. Thereβs not many of us havenβt made a stupid joke to a friend or colleague. What happened to Australia? Deadset pearl clutchers
@Sharkydave44 Is my thoughts yeah. The people who think all these public sector workers do nothing are the ones whoβll believe you can just cut half. They also never take into account the effect of all that unemployment.
The Commonwealth public service costs $59.7 billion a year.
An efficient one doing necessary work would cost $20 billion.
Cut it back and you:
β’ Save $39.7 billion a year
β’ Wipe out the entire budget deficit
β’ Take pressure off inflation
β’ Take pressure off interest rates
Nobody in Canberra will tell you this.
@BigdogGC77 I think he is pulling a number out his arse.
I honestly couldnβt begin to discuss, Iβve never worked in the public service, I have no idea who is needed and who isnβt.
