 "It's time for Australians to take personal responsibility for the amount of tax they pay"

New ‘Honesty Box’ system – ATO to ‘trust Australians to do the right thing’ 

 

 The Idiot at Home

As a result, the States are mandating a strict program of protection like mask-wearing. Which of course Morrison claims is sensible but “personal responsibility” like Sunscreen. Albo sensibly reminds us that if you don’t put on Sunscreen your children and friends won’t get your sunburn. Morrison, you truly are a KLUTZ.

Now Morrison wants the states to again step up and open up vaccination hubs to shoulder the burden of a booster program that suddenly looks as much of a race as the initial vaccination effort. Or as his apologists at The Australian put it, he’s “putting the heat on” the states. Meantime, GPs are complaining of a lack of funding and supply to meet the demand purely for those who are deemed eligible for one — which under the federal government’s rules is still only a minority of the population. There are “plenty of doses in the fridge”, Morrison says, but apparently insufficient funding to make it worthwhile for GPs to run vaccinations at scale. It’s early yet, but it looks increasingly like Morrison has again planned a Commonwealth rollout, it has again gone wrong, and he’s again demanding the states and territories save him. What will the price be this time?

 An economy on the move, despite the pandemic gloom.

 Whose "we" Pale Face?

We became richer faster than ever before this year, despite the pandemic. Here are six big reasons to be cheerful - for now

2021 has left us more prosperous than ever (seriously)

When socialists talk about creating a more equal society, we don’t mean a society where everyone has an exactly equal share of everything. We mean a society where power has been equalized by extending democracy into the economy.
