    AEC investigates after missing ballot papers found at election worker's home

    This was a breach of security, and not a good look at all, it opens the door to the possibility of fraud. Then conspiracy theories start to raise their ugly heads. I think it was an honest mistake but the question is what else goes on in both sides of politics. There should be much tighter...

    'It's just a shame': Massive 'un-Australian' charge turns Aussie tradition into luxury

    No doubt about it, they have people over a barrel, I don`t watch football and don`t like sports, but there is a lot of people that do. We don`t go to the pub or club either, but once again a lot of people do. It`s realy about the control that media has over the population and targets the things...

    Dignity or Dinner? The High Stakes of Australia’s Aged Care Funding Reforms

    That was a large and and quite confusing article. What I got out of it is a scary financial future for the aged who wish to stay at home but receive home care support and doubts about the viability and costs in residential care.

    She can’t escape her abuser, but housing laws make it even harder—what happens next?

    Firstly I think that our whole culture needs to change with regards to respect for each other, violence is prevalent, throughout the world. Traditionally men have been the dominant sex, woman are now taking their place as they should and there should be equality between men and woman. If men or...

    Measles cases across the country reach highest levels in six years

    I remember when I was quite young going to the local council and getting immunised. As far as that goes I don`t think measles, mumps, rubella and chicken pox were on top of the list and were realy considered to be ordinary children`s viruses. Polio was considerd to be serious and life...

    If they make you feel like that, give them the flick, they would not have a job if you and others using cash decided to go somewhere else. Their job is to make you feel like a statisfied customer.!! Cash is legal tender.

    ‘It’s already here’: Expert’s warning as Australia edges closer to a cashless future

    That is not the point, they are not taking into consideration what "all" of their customers need or want. Especially older people or those who do not want to use online services, or like using cash. Scamming or not scamming. You could also argue how the customers will cope when the online...
