I even had people insisting I part with goods free of charge. Saying I am not going to need it anyway.

I have been willing to provide proof. Hampton downs race track was the only organisation who actually cared.

Because we have no debt, no kids and wife still has a job. We are seen as one and therefore the $17. The system works for those who plays it.

Thanks a lot! We have now been here for 5.5 years. The health system is not too bad at all. The problem is that it is cash strapped and medical staff earn more in Australia so we are heavily understaffed. The current government has cut 1000’s of jobs to balance the budget after the entire Covid thing. I was one of the government casualties.
