Re: Work for the Dole?
Dare say it wouldn't be long before the City and Regional areas conformed once a precedent has been set. As for fairness of the principal, I guess everyone who it does not effect at this present moment in time will think it's fair, but this is true of most things. Imo.Re: Work for the Dole?
Tbh bruce,im unsure,mainly because i know nothing about australias situation regarding "rural",is it mainly aboriginal population they are on about?.Re: Work for the Dole?
I agree with you Norm. Does this mean they will get a paid jobRe: Work for the Dole?
It is difficult to comment. But I didn't think that unemployment was a big problem in Australia. I have four close family members who moved there three years ago and they had no problem finding work. I know it's a vast area so maybe some areas are more affected than others.Re: Work for the Dole?
Re: Work for the Dole?
One of the conservatives more stupid ideas. If there is work to be done, offer them a paid job. Not try to get them to work for below minimum wage. What about administration costs, insurance, transportation to and fro from work. This is another conservative plan which will cost more than it saves. I would agree to people being offered a set of employement opportunities and if they refused suspend their dole money for two or three weeks but spending more tax payers money just to say they are doing something is completely ridiculous. All MP's should have to go on a training course before they take office and that should include one month on the dole so they realise how difficult it is trying to live on about £100.00 a week. For so called business men they should be ashamed of themselves.
