Funny is it not, that socialised medicine in Australia is 2% levy on our taxable income, collected as we pay tax. Those on low income or who are older may not even pay that at all! When will the US learn that health services purchased by the Gov from taxes/levies is a better way?????

I am an ASusie & prob had more than most as our Gov thinks keeping up out of the “health system” is cheaper than putting us into intensive care! BTW most of them are free!!

No, the laptop is good for basic but the newer models with better chips that are quicker and do more things! The current 13 inch Macbook air is super fast & would last another 7yrs! U cld even get a cheap extra monitor & run it to have more window space to view ie writing on 1 & research on other.

One of the minor ones, expensive but… He changed the livery of all gov depts to Aussie coat of arms so that everyone knew that this was the Aussie gov looking at you & you knew where it came from! No longer the blue for ATO & red for CES etc. Change face of Gov & loss of CES & its programs!!
