RE: Australian MP's Paypackets and Benefits - The Great Australian Rort

in #teamaustralia7 years ago

Exactly. I've been living this for nearly three years. My husband is an abandoned Afghan interpreter. I'm all up in the asylum seeker activist crowd. The really f**ked up thing is I have to keep a low profile now to not upset the freakin apple cart, visa wise. The corruption is just overwhelming. They just hide it well and Australians have it good compared to most of the world, so cognitive dissonance abounds. One name stands out above them all Rupert Murdoch.

Sort:  

Don't be ridiculous. Corruption is something that happens in bad countries.
Australia is full of good, noble public servants. I learned all about this in school and haven't thought about it since, so it's clearly true.
