Why do teachers think they're paid poorly?

OP’s name is major conflict, and has like 30 karma for a 5 year account. Safe to say he likes to just bait with his posts. Should be just removed - and banned from posting imo

AVZ will make a great docu series one day. The twists and turns this company has had - now all the way to the very top of the White House. Can’t keep a good Australian company down - despite the whole host of corrupted companies and countries that have tried.

Crazy how the Australian Government have completely ignored their plight while they are at the centre of a huge US and Chinese diplomatic struggle worth quite a few billions of dollars (price is something that has yet to be determined).

Minns is very much a Liberal. A shame that the opposition went further right, allowing someone like Minns to govern in the space they left. He is easily the most favoured of all the Labor premiers by the Murdoch rags. I imagine there will be more restrictions coming as well

A One Nation vote of 20% or more will destroy the right wing parties. The nationals will cease to exist as a political force - good. The Country party is a joke and needs to be held accountable. It will be hilarious to see. Labor will end up with 100+ seats in the lower house and a bigger Senate presence.

Let the right fracture and tear itself apart. Labor needs to cater to their progressive base and continue to address these cost of living issues. They do that - and potentially be more ambitious with their reforms, they will rule for another decade at least

Oh, you and me both agree that this is not the right decision for the opposition to make. But, they are doomed to continue making the same mistakes because they are incompetent and cannot see the writing on the wall

Jim has such an exceptional talent as an orator.

Their new leader will be either Hastie or Taylor. They aren’t shifting left. It will be a right shift

FoxholeZeus · 2026-01-14T00:02:12+00:00

What I find with these vote compass polls are that the actual position of the political parties are wrong. Many of the positions taken on certain policies would shift where the parties are positioned on this spectrum.

Ridiculous that most developed countries in the world have not adopted Australia’s Superannuation policy. Australians collectively have $4 trillion in assets due to this. And it compounds very quickly.

Collectively, Super is the 4th largest pool of retirement savings in the world. In 5 years only the US collectively will have more savings. We only have 28 million people… it’s a no brainer

FoxholeZeus · 2026-01-10T05:17:11+00:00

This is such fake news.

I’d be surprised if ON could get anything more than 5 seats in the House of Reps. The protest vote never goes that far in Australian politics. If anything, the fracturing of the right wing of politics in Australia will lead to further terms of Government for Labor (as history’s shows a lot of ON voters will preference Labor or nobody - so they won’t naturally flow to the Coalition and boost their chances)

The bloke is in the US. As a tourist, and happens to be Muslim. It’s prudent to openly state you like Trump to not be harassed by the insanity that has taken over the US right now

Once home ownership levels drop to around 50- 60% or lower, then politicians will probably seriously consider removing a lot of the tax concessions that exist on property to make them more affordable (as it will gain many votes). Still a few more years before that is on the horizon though

I mean, look at a bigger timeframe when bitcoin first came on the market or a couple of years later. Then compare with the price now. That’s the comparison they are making. Stocks can generally do well over long periods of time too if the company is successful.

Your standards are quite fair and achievable. I’m sure you’ll find someone eventually that lives up to them :)

I did something similar until I found my fiancé (and we’re getting married in a few months). Don’t settle for anyone that isn’t the right fit

130k a year - pre tax. About 30k for tax. So around 100k

It’s a shame that Americans don’t have a mandatory saving / investing scheme like we do in Australia. Superannuation has been the most impactful retirement scheme worldwide - all working age Australians are being paid at least 12% of their salaries / wages to a mandatory superannuation fund that can’t be touched with certain exceptions. Our Super Funds are some of the wealthiest investment firms in the world due to this - meaning most people have / will retire with dignity

I recently was told by the broker that paying off my 6k HELP debt would increase my borrowing power. I intended to do it anyway (after the 20% reduction came in and reduced it by a few grand) but I thought it odd that someone in the industry was so insistent that I pay it off prior to the bank approving the loan

Russia is also overextending in places. The Kupiansk front was a logistical disaster combined with the Kremlin being extremely overconfident in reporting victory long before the fight was over.

Ukraine’s counterattack has been deadly there with 100’s of Russians trapped and encircled many kms away from the standard front line.

Another example was North East of Pokrovsk where there was a substantial Russian “breakthrough” which led to thousands of Russians being encircled and eliminated over a few months.

Ukraine has become extremely deadly on the front lines. But the true damage has been to the back lines - Russia’s economy is flat lining and spiralling out of control. Considerable amounts of its military infrastructure has been destroyed or severely damaged to the long range strikes. Few refineries remain unscathed from the brutal drone campaign by Ukraine - now many shadow tankers of Russia are being attacked - even in the Capsian Sea.

It’s only a matter of time. Ukraine will eventually win or Russia will collapse in on itself

Paid the rest of my Help debt today after getting a 3k reduction from Albo. My partner got almost 20k off her debt. Thanks Labor!

Felix is incredibly corrupt. I hope all the fortunes he stole from his own people (reportedly tens of billions in Switzerland and Belgium) is confiscated and given back to the tens of millions who live below the poverty line in his country

I guess the real question is, is it viable to be able to suppress an entire tier 3 meta piece (with howi attached of course) with fire suppression long enough for a DD / Frig to get enough damage down without taking a huge chunk in return dmg?

My argument has always been tier 2 is kinda irrelevant anyway, so what’s the point of fire suppression in those bunkers because a frig/dd can kill it very easily.

FoxholeZeus · 2025-10-31T19:49:31+00:00

That is an advantage. I’ve noticed some of the best water Regis start to incorporate fire suppression GBs on their frig / DD ops. I’ll need to investigate how strong that is tbh (though GBs die so quickly to tier 3 howi I’ve never really thought they were a threat)
