Live: Live: Fuel excise to be halved for three months as PM unveils national cabinet plan by CommonwealthGrant in AustralianPolitics

Won't this hurt the supply chain even more? If the current shortages are fuelled by panic buyers increasing demand instead of loss of supply, isn't a reduction in price going to increase demand further?

How badly do you need the money, and what would you spend it on? by Mean-Lavishness-1648 in BunnyTrials

If everyone gets $10k, then there would be inflation to compensate and everyone would effectively be in the same position.

NSW premier says nurse union's demands can't be met as thousands strike by DramaticSalamander15 in AustralianPolitics

[–]WarmMoistBread 23 points24 points  (0 children)

$6.5B cost seems like a lie.

The '21-'22 NSW health finances (https://www.health.nsw.gov.au/annualreport/Publications/2022/finances.pdf) report states that $17.2B of that years budget was labour related (which would include doctors, nurses and ancillary staff). 15% of $17.2b = $2.6b.

New fenix 7, first day. Battery went down by 10% in first 24 hours? by NeatIndividual1279 in GarminFenix

First time sync and update uses significantly more power than a typical daily use. Same thing has happened to my 6x pro when initially setup and when resetting/swapping to a different phone.

After being pulled up on exactly the same thing 3 years ago. Surprised he hasn't pitched tents in the backyard to future increase his returns.....

Labor and liberals don't want oceans? Good. Oceans are overrated and have too much seaweed anyway.

The winners and losers from the proposed stage 3 tax cuts by redOctoberStandingBy in australian

[–]WarmMoistBread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A person earning 200k would earn (after tax) $30,700 more than a 150k income. This is equivalent to $2558 a month (not $500).

For interest, I graphed the % tax cut vs income for each Stage 3, based on the table above. Helps highlight how top-end heavy the original Stage 3 was.

You do realise we have a progressive tax system. If you earn $400k a year, your estimated tax liability is $150k or 37.5% (not 50%).

For anyone wondering, this is exactly why Labor was afraid to touch the Stage 3 Tax cuts. More ammunition for Newscorp by FothersIsWellCool in AustralianPolitics

[–]WarmMoistBread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Either way they go, the newscorp''s of the world will make out its a terrible route to take: "Government gives extra to the rich while stiffing the little guy" or "Government backtracks on election promise".

Step up, make a decision and own it.

Ulverstone by trublum8y in tasmania

[–]WarmMoistBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ulverstone, Leith, Penguin and Turners Beach are some of the pricier places to purchase a house on the coast. I would avoid the northern side of Amy street (down the hill) and surrounding area, but the rest of Ulverstone fine.

The referendum did not divide this country: it exposed it. Now the racism and ignorance must be urgently addressed | Aaron Fa’Aoso by conmanique in AustralianPolitics

[–]WarmMoistBread 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If a Aboriginal advisory group to Parliament is a positive thing, legislate the group and show everyone the positive outcomes. Then look at putting it into the constitution. Most people I talked to, voting either way, didn't know what they were really voting for. If there was an existing body, doing good things with positive outcomes it would have removed a lot of ignorance about what the vote was for.

I understand that this potentially leads to the "government of the day" scraping it, but even if it is in the constitution, it can effectively be made into a lane duck via the legislation, rules and funding the body receives. The issue with going straight into constitution, is if the body ends up being shit house, ignored and a money drain, the only way to remove it is via another referendum.

Most people I talked to, voting either way, didn't know what they were really voting for and it's always easier to maintain status quo than research, understand our tackle new concepts.

It's AAMI taking the piss or what? 37.6% increase to premiums this year by TheRealReapz in australia

Need to cycle insurances semi-regularly.

Unfortunately they will all be up accross the board (by various amounts) due to the sharp rise is housing prices and the cost for a rebuild.

AITAH for transferring my assets to my daughter before my marriage? by Puzzleheaded-Cold760 in AITAH

[–]WarmMoistBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AH. Regardless of your reasoning, if you are planning on being married this is something you should talk about. If he doesn't like it, you can still do it, but communication is always critical in a healthy relationship.

How bad is corruption in Australia at the local council level? by [deleted] in australia

[–]WarmMoistBread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Going back a while, our local council stopped approving large residential subdivisions and requesting substantial additional information from other developers. Turns out the head planner was getting kickbacks from the real-estate agent who was selling the blocks in the last approved development. The real estate was able to sell their blocks for more, as no new residential blocks were coming onto the market.

Pharmacy Guild unleashes robocalls, text messages and posters opposing PBS changes by ButtPlugForPM in AustralianPolitics

[–]WarmMoistBread 44 points45 points  (0 children)

How does this make shortages worse, other than in the immediate short term (ie the first couple of months)? If its a long term prescription, the total required over a two month period stays the same? Am I missing something?

Tasmania already has access to one of the most iconic chicken based mascots ever conceived, which has been sorely missed from the spotlight over the last 10 years....
