Just tax billionaires more. It's not that hard. Australia doesn't have a budget problem, it has a not taxing billionaires problem. There's no point trying to save money by taking shit away from disabled poor people. That's pinching pennies while burning hundred bills.
Every government that has tried to tax billionaires more has been voted out.
No government is going to win an election when smear campaigns can truthfully say the government is paying for hookers.
Welcome to reality.
So you're celebrating a pointless penny pinching law legislating against people who already had their need validated in a court of law... Because that's what other people think?
Get your own opinions.
No I'm against it because I don't believe in paying for sex, that sex workers are predatory and undeserving of public funds.
I was pointing out the political reality of the situation because regardless of my personal opinion the outcome will be decided by the electorate.
Again, welcome to reality, sometimes life sucks and then you die.
Those predatory harlots, treating disabled people with respect and dignity on the government's dime!
