A Good Point!!!

Soph · 07-11-2007, 15:24

I got this in my inbox today, makes you think! I would have to agree!!!!!

Message from a hard working Aussie

I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to earn that pay cheque, as I work on a mine site on a Kalgoorlie Construction project, I am required to pass a random urine test, with which I have no problem.
What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a Centerlink Payment because I have to pass one to earn it for them??

Please understand - I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do on the other hand have a problem with helping someone sit on their backsides drinking grog & smoking dope.

Could you imagine how much money the Government would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a Centerlink Payment????

Please pass this along if you agree or simply delete if you don't.

Hope you all will pass it along though, because something has to change in this country, and soon!

Take it to your local member of parliment- in writing.

I bet they skim over the page and throw it in the trash- Labour or Liberal.

very good point, another thing I think is why when alot of us work away, seven days a week, just trying to make more money to get ahead have to pay higher tax rates?
