I think you mean UNINFORMED opinion as you don't know a thing about the card.

Act your age and not your shoe size, What a pity you are too ignorant to acknowledge you know NOTHING about the card. Oh well when you get affected by it don't cry to those of us who actually do know something about it.

I totally agree but some here are so silly they can't see that.

Stop with the incessant lies on the posts! Pensioners WILL be placed on the card ... that has always been the plan and it was only because they were voted out last time it didn't happen earlier. I actually watched the last Senate hearing where the card was up for debate and I know exactly who...

Yes it is ironic that everyone saying "cash is king" and loudly declaring their right to use cash (which is fair) are also mainly the ones wanting to stop pensioners and other welfare recipients from being able to do the same thing!

PH voted IN FAVOUR of this card at the Senate hearings held about it when the LNP were in government. She is the one who said anyone on Centrelink payments, including pensioners, has NO RIGHTS. She wants this card so she won't save you from it.

What a load of unmitigated codswallop!

It WILL be brought in for everyone ... Dutton has already said this. The media trigger all the racists by mentioning Indigenous people in an attempt to blindside you into thinking it won't affect you. It will.

NO ... the rent does NOT get paid!!!!!!!! That is a HUGE part of the issue. Talk to people in the Hervey Bay and Bundaberg areas where the biggest trials took place. Ask them how much homelessness was caused by this card, how Indue were NOT paying rents on time, how people were being evicted and...

What a rude and vile comment from someone who knows NOTHING about the CDC and how the LNP plans to administer it.

It WILL affect pensioners ... the rollout will be national and to all Centrelink recipients. That was their intention last time but the Senate defeated the bill. I sat up late into the night watching that Senate hearing so I do know what happened and what the proposition was. The LNP have stated...

You keep lying in multiple comments on a topic you know NOTHING about.

Wrong. It will be COMPULSORY for ALL Centrelink recipients. That has already been stated. They tried that last time but luckily the motion to extend the card to pensioners was defeated in the Senate because of some of the Independent senators voting against it. Otherwise, you would be on it...

Plus what a lot of people may not be aware of is that funds were not even held in an Australian bank! They were held by the Bank of America!!! Indue (the company administering the card) banked overseas. If you wanted Indue to allow you access to your funds that were not part of the 20% paid into...

No it doesn't ... it INCREASES crime in the area. I have friends who live in the Bundaberg area and because access to their payment in cash was stopped there were a LOT more muggings, house robberies and general theft.

He definitely has pensioners in mind too. The last LNP government were extending it to pensioners as well but luckily it was defeated in the Senate and then the election took place and they didn't have the chance to put it before them again as they were voted out.

Their certified (or should that be "certifiable" in this case?) expert, Dr Google Von YouTube whispered their conspiracy theories in their ear and they believed them sadly.

Please tyell us what science degrees you hold? Oh what? You don't have any? I thought so.

LOL no point getting into a discussion with someone who is as politically ignorant as you and who just swallows the media garbage like a hungry waif would food! You are not worth discussing the situation with as you are not smart enough to realise what the media is feeding you is garbage ... I...
