Australians could keep a metric shit ton of their wages, if we just taxed the mining sector, and fired our corrupt politicians.

We would have free education / universities, free health care, free dental and more.

In 2024, a new law opened up the postal market to private competition and took away its exemption from the country's 25% rate of VAT, so the price of a PostNord stamp jumped to 29 Danish krone ($4.55; £3.35) per letter.

Remember https://www.mozillafoundation.org/en/privacynotincluded/nissan/

They come right out and say they can collect and share your sexual activity, health diagnosis data, and genetic information and other sensitive personal information for targeted marketing purposes. We absolutely aren't making that up. It says so in their Nissan USA privacy notice. And that's not all! They also say they can share and even sell "Inferences drawn from any Personal Data collected to create a profile about a consumer reflecting the consumer’s preferences, characteristics, psychological trends, predispositions, behavior, attitudes, intelligence, abilities, and aptitudes" to others for targeted marketing purposes. Yes, Nissan says they can infer things like how smart you are, if you have a predisposition to drink, if you are acting depressed, and if you are any good at chess (we're guessing that's what they can infer..it could be even worse than that), and then they say they can make as much money off that very personal information as they can.

Omg a mining corporation and Murdoch. We surely must listen to this unbiased, genuinely helpful advice.

You must live in Antarctica if that's keeping it high in the summer. My town gets over 40c regularly, and inside most people's houses is like a humid swamp.

By stopping the corruption in the mining sector, where politicians give the miners all of our resources tax free, and then get fat jobs with the miners, we could have everything we need and more.

How about we just stop the corruption, and get our free university, hospitals, and everything else like a modern country should.

I got a cheap aldi one years ago. Total workhorse. Highly recommended.

My wife is middle aged. More natural, and beautiful than she's ever been. She still frets about her aging, but, it's beautiful to watch her mature. It's a blessing to not be unwell, and have this opportunity.

Do them EVERY time. Just. Do. It.

That one little thing will spill into the rest of your life, and your life will change, guaranteed.

I'd be taking it back for a full refund. Fuck that shit.

Was going to read this article, then realised I'm a man.

Rancid butter in the sweltering Australian heat has something to say about that.

And I bet those miners pay $0 tax.

And I guarantee their pet politicians get fat jobs with them once done in politics.

And that, is why we don't have free healthcare, dental, university, etc.

Can't spy on the citizens. Banned.

A yung'un huh

Gen x here. Agree. We get leveled. Again. Whilst the boomers just coast through it, mortgage free, reaping bucket tonnes from their multiple properties and huge super, and sipping their laté in delight.

Nice to see Mr Gurney here. The man is a living legend.
