@Philosophical46@GavinBrx $220k per year is literally just 2 people earning 10% above the national median wage. It's not rich. It's marginally above average.
Also Dubai has all of those government services, of the same quality, and has practically no income tax.
It's waste, corruption and vote buying.
@HolbrookKym@Ryandally08 If you earn 1.9x the median salary you should pay half your wages thereafter to the government.
There are very few countries that tax at rates this high.
@Haydenfreedom "I understand people have reservations about voting for the exact same party except blue, but we have gangs running a black market industry and now a gang threatening and fire bombing hospitality venues.
Plus machete attacks. Victoria needs the exact same party except blue."
@RapidResponse47 You gay retards love to post this shit then you don't do anything about the problem
Boys, don't let them get away with this slop. Prosectutions, arrests, and real consequences.
If you can't deliver, I'm staying home for 2026 and 2028
I do not want these criminals to be rehabilitated. I don’t want to shoot forward 20 years and find that they’re happy, productive members of society. That outcome (unlikely as it is) is a description of the grotesque.
@AvidCommentator This is every industry in Australia when you scratch the surface. It's a very corrupt country disguised as a very bureaucratic country.
One thing that the neoliberal technological solution enjoyers will never understand about ordinary people’s feelings about crime, is that if Guy A gets his package stolen off his porch, but Guy B doesn’t because he checks the door every 15 minutes to see if the Amazon driver has arrived and diligently removes the package from the porch before anyone has a chance to see that it’s there and take it, and Guy C has to drive across town to an Amazon locker because he’s tired of dealing with it — these are all the same outcome.
Only one of these things shows up as a property crime.
But all three of them are the same outcome.
