Heres a good one for you.

Ever wondered why you are taxed to buggery in Australia ? Ever wonder why you have to work like a dog to get ahead. Well I was looking at a site a friend sent me.
I will list the site below.

Here is some interesting figures. Total Population of Australia 22 and a half million people. Amount of people employed in Australia this month, 11 and a half million people !
Yet the government says we only have a unemployment rate of 5.1 percent (garbage). The figures are fudged bad. That means we have around 10 million people in Australia living on the pension, or sickness benefit, and we have a so called "only 1.2 million" unemployed people. That means we have over 11 million people not working out of 22 and a half million. FRIGGIN AMAZING ! nOW YOU KNOW WHY YOU PAY A MINIMUM OF 39 TO 49 PERCENT IN TAX, plus the gst at 10 percent, which means reallistically, you only ever get to keep less than 50 cents for every dollar you earn, then you pay more for state taxes, federal taxes etc etc etc.

Where will Australia be in ten years ? perhaps worse off i would suggest. And the governments adding yet another new carbon tax ! when will the tax ripoffs stop !

Doesnt it just make you want to jump out of bed in the morning and go to work ?  @.@ @.@




I guess my daughters are part of that 10 million bludgers problem - better get them off to work.
