No disrespect intended to Dr Sally (who I adore) but I suspect quite a lot of people in Australia aren't overly familiar with self-managed super funds
The wealthy use them to park money and then re-use the assets in the SMSF for their own purposes. $3 million isn't pay-as-you-go contributions

Who among you Aussies has more than $3m in Super?

It's 2015. President Barack Obama has accepted a "sky palace" jumbo jet from the Qatari government, which he'll own after he leaves office. "Everybody relax," he says in an interview with the New York Times. Everyone does. The networks then televise the military parade in his honor on his birthday.

I think Trent Twomey & @PharmGuildAus owe the Australian ppl an apology for their wildly irrational predictions, Twomey should quit
They unnecessarily worried many Aussies & acted in an openly partisan way.
Their predictions were very wrong.

How will Sophie Elsworth know when to start grunting about Anzac Day biscuit tins if we do it out of order?
I mean, banning Christmas globally is a huge ask, but I'm sure we can organise it.

...because when government services are outsourced, they are incented to maximise their own profits - not to deliver quality service.
Australia needs to wake from its decades-long neoliberal fantasy, and start re-drawing the line between "government services" and "commercial businesses".

Just a quick heads-up: nobody with any choice in where they buy groceries should be shopping at Woolworths anyway quite apart from how they treat workers simply because they’re one of the biggest funders of Rupert Murdoch, Kerry Stokes and Kyle Sandilands.

Don't know if you guys are sick of it yet but I'm completely over corporate parasites milking working class Australians at every opportunity.
Next election I'm voting for the candidate who promises to bring the greedy bastards to heel.
